Lincoln met a ditch, need advise...

[murder_mobile]

As the title states, I went off the road, and hit a ditch with the passenger side of the vehicle. The airbags deployed, there was damage to the passenger fender, the turn signal and from what I can tell without having torn it down, the radiator support. Now, the big damage was to the k-member, it was bent backwards and slightly up. The control arm bent as well as a tie rod. The car has been sitting for about two weeks now as I've been considering my options. It still runs, not leaking any fluids or anything like that. Just want an opinion on if I should fix it or sell it. What would be involved in replacing to k member? Should I just get a porta-power and bend it back? Any advise would be awesome.

If the k-member is bent, the frame rail is bent. The car is totaled unless you want to spend far more than what its worth to have it all pulled back. Even then it will not be near prefect.

I think after meeting a ditch it's going to need to meet a junkyard next.

Ouch.....looks like its bent at the strut rod.
Get it up higher and get under it is it bent in front of the rod?
This is the part of the frame unity was referring to

These cars can be bought so cheaply, so it's not worth fixing. Buy a replacement, replace any parts on the new car with parts on your old car that are better, and call it a day.
