    By the looks of it, control arm and bushes, castor rod and bushes, strut, link pin, sway bar and left hand wheel hub all need replacing, as well as the guard and mirror. Plus rack. If I were you, I'd replace both front struts, link pins, rack, control arms, sway bar, castor rod, bushes, front wheel hub and then get a wheel alignment. After that I'd get the car to a panel beater and have the structure checked for anything else like the k frame bent etc.

    Agree there

    Also, want to remind you that there is no wheel presently on the front left. So dont drive it without the wheel :beer chug:

    You obviously dont have insurance. Maybe get a panel shop to come have a look instead of asking people on a forum, who are looking at pretty average photos.
