Is it possible to fix 850 1995

Thanks Klaus for the PDF file. I knew there where some this to replace wasn't sure about the interior components. I guess the actual sensors on the outside are part for SRS system that also needs to be replaced.

The front unibody structure looks to me (not sure if this is correct) as having a piece that comes out from the main body with a top and lower that comes out like this:

=========== This is the part that is mangled.

The lower part looks good but the upper is mangled. I see these are welded to the main body. The strut tower looks good it's just everything else plus the fender. For giggles I was wondering if this is something that would be fixable from a structural point of view. I know the math doesn't work but the car is like a family friend and if Irv Gordon can keep his Volvo on the road as long as he has (with accidents repaired) maybe I can get it done. I'm looking at $2000 for a half decent 850/S/V/70 and then at least $1000 of deferred maintenance to do. So I have $3000 in my mind for repair work and parts hunting. I figure half for parts the other have for labor. Can it be done??
