Well as for the "Pay or you'll go to jail". I too had that and that is cause your fine is over due. You can ride it till the last day, then call SPER and organise a payment plan.
It may be fixable. Hell, i had mine fixed after my misshap. Granted it wasn't as bad, but a panel beater could pull that out + new guards/bonnet.
You'd most likely be better of buying another 55 and stipping that one for parts.
Sorry to hear about the bad news mate. Hope all goes well for you.
Jon.
Some of my shots from the day.
Afterwards on my way home i stopped into McDonalds and the little kid that bought my order out to me complimented me on my car.
That was cool.
