Best bet is probably to repace the whole front subframe.

your not a vary good writer. i would take the engine out since you think its so beautiful. and put it in another camaro thats not so messed up but is broken down or something. cause if its possible to fix that much damage to the frame it would be damn exspensive

It will cost about $1500 to $2000 for the garage to cut the old front end off and weld on a new one. Plus you will have to buy the front end off of a junk car. I got the whole front end for about $250.00. How do I know this.... I just had it done. Depends on how much you love this car. Once they do this, if you have the original air conditioning system in the car, it will now be empty.... If you can find a garage that still handles the old stuff....very hard to find these days, it will cost you about 250.00 to have that recharged. Or you can totally convert it over to the new system for around $2000.00.

Well that is true, probably would be the best bet to buy a better body, take the parts from both cars and build one great car. I bought mine wrecked really cheap and got it fixed. I bought it from my neice and knew the whole history of the car and how well she had taken care of it. Only damaged in the front, but had to have another front end welded on. I just got overexcited at the prospect of actually owning a CAMARO! If everything else had not been in such great shape, I probably would have passed it up. Guess thats what happens when you are driving a Ford Contour all the time. lol! So yes, I am new to the Camaro world, and probably could have gotten a better deal in the long run of things, but I Love my Crappy Camaro and have no regrets of ever getting it.
