anybody every deal with this before? I just got my car back from being looked at for other things (this is the celica im talking about) and they said to take it to a body shop, before dropping ANY money on other things.

They said that the passenger side frame rail is rusted bad, the area around the front swaybar. Two places I've talked to say that working with structural pieces gets VERY expensive, and its not recommended.

Nobody has given me any ballpark numbers yet. Anybody else ever deal with a similar problem? and how much did it cost? I've never had frame work done, so I don't know whether I should keep getting estimates or put the For Sale sign on it now.
