Got rear ended. Repair or replace Any suggestions?

[Bill UK]

You’re be ok with that Bill, the only extra tools you will need is a hoist & trolley jack. (The trolley jack for the AT) Ok a little bit of extra work crawling under the car to remove the prop, exhaust, Speedo cable and un-bolting the AT. Time wise: A full day to prepare for removal, next morning up bright and early, pull the engine and AT together allow 1 –2 hours. I bought an engine hoist form Ebay like this one Ebay fully extended it will lift a ton, believe me you will need it fully extended to reach into the centre of the engine. A few pics below that will give you some idea. By the way, what condition is the floor pan of your boot, did it buckle up? Almost forgot you will be removing two engines/AT, the second one your probably have out in a day, you can sleep in the next morning.
