Hi Jose
The exterior damage is evident, but I have restored a couple of damaged
Coupes and one Sedan, and the hidden damage is harder to repair than what
looks fairly simple.
Just a suggestion, but call up a good frame shop one that can pull your
car back to its original shape. Don't remove any of the fenders, bumper or
doors. Your Honda 600 has a unibody and sub-frame configuration and when
you start unbolting things it makes it harder to pull back. Also have them
check your sub-frame, the area at the front of your drivers door looks like
it is in about an inch. That can do quite a bit of bending to your
sub-frame right where it bolts to the body. I had a Sedan with similar
damage and we were able to pull it back and reuse the sub-frame. I have a
couple of doors that are in good shape, the fender I will have to dig a bit
further for. And I have a couple of Coupe rims that are in restorable
shape. I also have the front face and lower cross member as well as a nice
front bumper assembly. Let me know what you need, I am sure I am not the
only one that has parts they will be willing to make available to you.
Bill
