It looks repairable, but probably not for less than what the car is worth... :(

Well in that case all you are up for is some panel beating for the radiator support and front chassis structure, it may be ok...

Lot of work to fix that thing.. Not impossible though?

Damn, that sucks.

Hope your pride is in better shape :wink:

Trying to fix that would be disheartening I think - maybe you need to start with another car and get that thing out of your sight so it can't upset you any more :D Just make sure it's another Volvo 360!

Glad you're not damaged

By the look of it, you'll need to weld in a replacement front valance and front panel, having first pulled the outer and inner wings straight. The front of the chassis legs may also need pulling straight.

Doable, and I'd do it on my 360....but it's not trivial.

cheers
