[quote=”Crystalof9″ post=55641]The problem is the hose clamp. It’s on there really tight. I can’t get right up where I can see it, but that clamp will just not loosen. Should I cut the hose away, then just start prying at it? I do have a pair of pliers that I bought for the fuel filter. Maybe I can try those on both the bolt and the clamp? Not so worried about the bolt anymore, but I can’t drive the van with that hose….especially now that I’ve split the other end. I just don’t want to break something else, and I HAVE to drive it come Monday morning.[/quote]
what is that picture of? there’s so much grease around the area that i can’t make out the image. i thought you shattered the clamp off? if not, you’ll have to cut the clamp out then. a dremel could do this
try to use a small pick to intrude between the lip of the hose and the coolant inlet (i don’t know if i am saying that right), and work in a circular motion to break up the rust or whatever that is causing the hose to stay on there so tightly. you might have to rip the hose up if it’s stuck that badly

goddamn, an accident at 70mph? great to hear you guys made it out alive.
when it comes to moments like this, the real question is if it can be afforded to save the wrecked car and if there is space for the car to just stay put. the cheapest/most cost-effective way to probably approaching this situation would be to gut out the motor/transmission and store that away until you can find a shell and then work on the restoring process. at least with the shell, the camaro will have the same soul lol

it definitely sounds like you got suspension issues and the parts your mechanic listed out should fix the problem. the prices on both the labor and the parts themselves sound pretty reasonable to me. i’m sure you could find cheaper prices on parts, but i wouldn’t go that far and put the cheapest parts i can find and install it on my car

i would say the oil cooler because while driving the small leaks from the oil cooler could get pushed out there where the control arm is at by the wind, but you say everything is clean, so i duuno. could you take more pictures of the surrounding area, especially after a drive?
