Cheers Steve ,I just posted on V300 ,maybe the parts are still there and Hopefully I should be able to save the car,Sills have survived from what I been told its just door and wing which need attention,the quarter panel can be repaired easily ,Someone is checking the pillars on car in morning as they took brunt of the impact,The front bumper has survived being slammed into another car also.

Cheers
Mo

Hi all,
Got to work on the car today at 8AM this morning,with alot of help from my minions .After a lot of hammering and unblolting, and a lot of swearing these are the results,The car is now ready for a touch of filler etc.I removed the plastic body strips from both sides now as I dont think new one to replace the damaged one is available.Although My panel beating skills are non existant ,I think I done pretty well straightening the door edge out and bringing out quarter panel.What you think?

No fixed opening times Allan ,Whenever weathers good and regular work (and school) doesnt get in way LOL
The cars had some filler added today and the new wing has been wet sanded,considering full spray now.
