please help

i bought an RS 5.0 TBI and i found out that the chassis is kinda beat up. I had originally been told that all i had to do was have the right fender pulled...turns out it might be more work that that as the tire on the right side might not be aligned with the one on the left....there is also some welding that was done on the chassis on the part right before the tire is it worth keeping the car or should i sell it or should i buy another F body and trransfer everything to it because it has a nice strong 305 and clean interioir......i bought it for 1k maybe i might eb able to find a tore up f body with a straight frame for cheap .....Gimmie ideas please

I'd take it to a good front end alignment shop and have them look it over. For the price you bought it and the amount of work to do a complete swap, you could spend some money if necessary to get it fixed and have a nice car and still not a lot of money in it.
