By removing the pillar, you'll be removing the seatbelt mounts, so I'd say no...

wow, when i rolled mine my windscreen dropped to a 45 degree angle but all the side panels are fine, yours seems small damage but all over...

and x2, if you remove panels like that, it would have to be engineered i would think, and i doubt that any engineer would approve that even if you could find some safe way to remount seat belts... exo cage as a "ladder rack" :wink:

Being a coily that would be a write off
A 6 point cage with all the panels still on is better and doesn't stand out

How'd you roll it?

Coily body is a gonner! I would suggest finding another. Leafys can be easily fixed by replaceing the removable parts, but with a solid A pillar, goodluck fixing that, that bent..

With the B pillar, It will have to be engineered/Mod plated

Leafy bodies fit as far as I know it's not hard, disconnect everything that goes from body to chassis/engine undo body bolts etc then lift it off can be done in a few hours

Mate, it's rooted for sure. I can't see any economical repair, unless you find a cheap coily body. On the plus side, at least the B'pillar did it's job - I saw one in Port Macquarie that had rolled in sand. The car was missing from bonnet height up.

Expensive lesson about driving safely on the beach hey. Yeah mate seriously just buy an earlier model leafy body and away you go, it is a labour intensive job but pretty straight forward. You just need to find a nice clean leafy body for sale. Or wreck it out and start again.

Under your pics it says 96 COILY 3 INCH SUS 2 BL REAR LOCKER that will do it................

More pics of the damage please
