buy it back, get another shell and swap over the goodies

It is repairable.

You sure about that? Look how far forward the rear quarters are crumpled. You could fix it, but no one in their right mind would.

That'd be a lot of pull'n to get that rear qrtr back in shape + looks like it got into the rear qrtr window pillar - let alone what's damaged underneath. That's a kiss of death. Better to scavenge the goodies off it & start with a cleaner, with zero damage, slate.

Good luck if you do buy it back for repair.

if i really liked my car, and could find a good donor. i would probably pass on fixing as well. just saying it could be done.
