Default So I hit a deer, fix or part out?

I've got a 1996 2.8Q 5 speed.

Basically a few weeks ago I'm driving to pick up my girl and a deer jump out of nowhere when I was doing 60 mph. It broke the grille, dented the AC Condenser, the Radiator, broke the rad support, headlight & turn light, hood, airbox and door (I managed to get the fender looking normal) and on top of that it bent the frame that the top of the fender bolts on to. Last week I decided I would fix the car so I went out and bought 2 headlights, put them on, bought an intake and filter from a friend, put that on, to realize the camshaft position sensor went bad...AGAIN(happens after messing wit the intake plugs and sensors) after I already replaced it a month earlier...

Now Im gonna need a car for school soon, and I really have only a few hundred dollars (which i was gonna spend on parts anyway) so how much do you guys think I can make off of a part out? Engine is good (wont start unless you get a new CPS) so is the tranny, just needs new mounts. Interior is ok(roofliner is bad, dashboard is good)

Ill post up pics.

No insurance?

I hit a deer with mine back in 2003 and insurance paid for everything to make her look beautiful again.

Even if you had full coverage, with a bent frame they likely would have totaled the car anyway. You could probably part it out and make some money but it's not going to be a quick process.

Out that sucks man, I'd personally would fix her up but that's me Since you're on a budget and have to go back to school maybe parting out is a good idea.
