Can this be saved?

[Jyttah]

Hi.
I have a S13 that previously was in a small front accident.
I thought it was the front radiator support that took the whole damage, so i ordered a new one at the local Nissan, waited a few month and finally received it.
We installed it loosely on the car and notiged that the front passager side is all bend down and pushed in a little.
The tower it self have not been moved at all. So thats nice.

But what would be the correct way of bending this back into shape?
Can it be done with a big hammer, some wood and a slidehammer and maybe make a few cuts with an anglegrinder?

Or is there another way of doing it that we didnt think of?

The car is not a track car, but are going to be a road-legal car, so, its not possible to mange a tubed or caged front because of the local laws in this country.

Take a good pic of the engine bay and the frame rails near the strut tower. If the strut towers are square you should be fine, but a frame machine is the best way to straighten that out

That is definitely saveable.

100% salvageable. Find yourself a good frame shop and let them work their magic.

a good slide hammer, port-a-power, hammer and other body tools do wonders! if you wna put in the work then it will be salvageable! GL!

a block of wood on your jack and then jack the car up on the affected area.

Jack up on it from the bottom if you want it done dirty and quick.

Highly recommend having the car put on a frame machine by a knowledgeable shop.
