Honesty, I think you might be ok but what I would suggest is since the back is pretty banged up, call around and see if you can find another neon that is wrecked in the front. Then just have them take the plasma torch and cut the car and half and attatch it to yours. My sisters b/f did this with a 2001 civic, he got the car that was wrecked in the back and then found a back end for 700 bucks, he worked at a body shop and had someone help him do the welds and it looks great, drives great and has had no problems. He didnt even have to get a rebuilt title

 

just looking at it i would say its not worth it. would have been better off getting one with a blown motor and doing a swap. would have been about the same price and the frame would have never been compromised

 

this is what we plan to do!

 

keep in mind though that the front is pushed over too
the car is basically like a wide U

 

In my humble opinion Bondo is not a good idea. My Neon was wrecked sometime before I bought it and it looks like thats what they used to fix it up and now it looks like crap again. Last time I washed it with the sprayer it somehow knocked a patch off the front bumper and now there is a hole in it. Speaking of which, I was gonna try to glue it back on one of these days...

 

thats why fiberglass jelly is better

 

or dont let a woman drive and accidents wont happen? JK

 

lol that was badfunny but bad.I dont personally use bondo to hide a dent...i fix a dent anduse a light coat to hide any flaws.

 

well your forgeting some of the most expensive things....paint.....for a show condition job will be around 2-3 k....and why would u use bondo....it sucks do the car right the first time....if u going to go through the trouble of messin with a damaged frame why the hell would u half *** it with bondo?

 

Oh, lol ok, I see where you said that. My bad, good luck though!
