I've just spotted this on the bay, it made me laugh because it's the most incomplete Volvo I've ever seen, plus who would want to buy this. What would you do with it!

Climbing frame for the kids?
That seller has loads of stuff on offer....including S60 bonnets for 60 quid (mine is a bit of a mess)
Three words, 'Cut and Shut'. Anything that badly damaged should be scrapped, even the best welder couldn't weld that in to a chassis without compromising the safety of the vehicle, especially given the A frame and B frame is one of the main structural points on the car.
Still be cheaper to MOT than yours

I've seen worst but only on a training course to expose inner reinforcement and they paint the different strength panels different colours to show the structure.
fact of the day - a v50 front chassis leg has 150 different strength metals in it.

It actually has all the important structural points for a proper repair actually.

The insurance company repair agents have spot welders which give a print out of of all the welds which are done to prove they are done to the correct standard and the correct number of welds per panel,repair.
One for the firms I know now are using mig brazing due to the high strength steels used these days , normal mig welding will destroy the strength of the newer high-strength steels used in car bodies.
a lot of insurance companies are useing secondhand repair panels & parts that are not new manufacturer genuine parts,to cut costs.

The bigger problem with the newer cars is that the weld might be to strong and might compromise the ability for the car to crumple correctly in a crash
