Uh Oh It's Bent

["Alexander L. van-Gerbig" <avangerb@zoo.uvm.edu>]

To all those that helped me at the NE Tech session I have some bad news.
My Audi may have to be parted out.  The poor 80 possibly has a bent frame.
I hate to speculate before the autobody shop checks it, but I have a
sinking feeling in my gut about this.  The car had been in a 7500 dollar
head on accident 6 years ago and has always mildly drifted to the right on
the highway since I bought her 2 years ago.  Hopefully I bent the steering
knuckle or something, but who knows at this point.  I'm afraid to ask, I
love that damn car.  So far the control arms, struts, strut bearings, and
tierod look fine.  What other parts besides the steering knuckle and the
frame could be bent?  And if the frame is bent what should I do?  Also how
much would a new steering knuckle be?  I'm on the verge of tears over
here.

Thank you,
