Are there any community colleges in Omaha area that do pro bono body work on cars for class credit?
My wife's car is totalled, except for it has really low miles and runs great. The right side got smashed in last week, and the other driver did NOT get a ticket (so much for insurance $$). We cannot afford a new car, honestly I almost think it's ridiculous myself to fix this one. BUT if it can be done, I would like to see options. It's a 1994 Pontiac Sunbird, about 68K miles.

Depends on how bad the damage is, if the interior has intruded into the cabin (door, b pillar etc) is pushed into the front seat the car is totalled if not you can repair the car with pannels from a 1990 - 1994 Cavalier / Sunbird, if the door can open examine the door frame carefully. Minor damage can be repaired with a hammer and dolly. A good junkyard can be one source for parts another source is CertiFit, who sells aftermarket pannels. If the car is totalled your second option is to find a Cavalier / Sunbird with a bad engine or transmission and swap your drivetrain into the car, you can also carry over your interior, headlights, tail lights etc a swap of engine/trans and interior can all be done in a weekend's worth of work.
