    Red got punched in the nose real good. Hood, grill, bumper, radiator, fan, fenders and core supports crushed.
    Frame is still straight and no other damage than listed.
    I want to rebuild it with insurance money.
    Looking for cool ideas.
    What do you think?

    Similar thing happened to me recently. I used the money to put on a lift, new tires and put money towards a supercharger. What I had left went to maintenance and putting in as good dailyable condition as I could.

    Depending on your budget and goals, you could fiberglass/wide fenders, long travel, cage, engine swap, SAS and all kinds of stuff. Go through some of the crazier build threads and look for inspiration.
