I should have said earlier, that this was taken by Ibrahim, if that's his real name. Or Mr. _x.br if it isn't

This car is toasted. However, the stainless panels, alloy wheels, gearbox and torsion bars should be saved along with the VIN plates.

id love to get a car like that and see what i could make of it, i.e running and driving etc, could make a cool rally car, bucket seats etc, not original but it would get a 2nd life

The shipping cost would likely be exorbitant , all the panels need repair.

Torsion bars are likely snapped
