My dad will fix it and I'll have a car to get from point a to b. If I'm gonna have some money, I might do a k20a (RSX-S) swap.

Might have been snow. The accident happened around January I think.

Is he going to completely fix it up to brand new status, or make it driveable?
that'd be an awesome find if you do get it to need4speed status

What do you mean? Have you ever seen someone fixing a crashed car to a condition where you can still see that its crashed?

If the frame's bent, you're probably putting more into the car than it's worth.

The car is declared to be a total loss by the insurance company. They've estimated the total price for fixing it at $7900. Since my dad is gonna fix it himself, he's gonna pay a lot less than that, otherwise what's the point of buying a crashed car.

You have to have a frame bending machine or frame-puller to fix a frame properly. Your dad got one of those?
