    Repairable?
    What parts would I need?
    I have a welder guy, and a body guy.

    This is the drivers side, the passengers side needs fixed to but not anywhere as bad as this side.

    I just took the cover off (with the outer rocker panel) with screws. It didn't fall off yet.

    My suggestion is to consider the car salvage at this point. A donor car would be the best bet for parts. However, the donor car would probably be safer to drive so why not fix it up instead? The one in the pics really isn't safe. It can't protect the occupants in a crash as intended, the structure is compromised. I'd keep that off the street and part it out. Sorry.

    It's PA inspection runs out on Sunday, and I have the rocker panel off, SO it's off the street now. Just checking to see what I can do with her.

    Yeah, if you have the ability to do it or know someone who is willing to do the welding, it can be done for pretty cheep. The rocker panels are like $30 a peace for a sedan on Rock Auto. Coupes are a tad spendy though.
