Default my 5.0's life is over very saddd day!!

ok im life is pretty much over. im 17 years old and i got my 89 lx when i was 15 and i have been saving every penny to fix this car up. i redid the whole motor, did all the body wrk myself, painted it myself, did the whole suspension myself and the list goes on and on. well lets just put it this way..i lived for my car this car was my pride and joy but this all was taken away in the blink of an eye on wendsday on my way to wrk. i was driving in the right lane doing the speed limit in a school zone about 30mph and i come up upon an intersection. there is a taxi cab facing me with his blinker on waiting to turn infromt of me. well im about half way into the intersection this ****ing ******* decides to jet out infront of me. i saw him and i just stomped down on my brakes and there was nothing to do but to go right into him. well the driver of the cab was 75 years old and he should not be driving at that age i was soo mad cause he destroyed my car. well its all said and done and im debating weather or not to fix it considering i wrk in a bady shop and can get parts for close to nothing. well i loved this car and just as a warning to all u pple who love ur 5.0's WATCH OUT FOR TAXI'S THEY ARE ALWAYS IN A RUSH! so here are sum pics what ya think.

so whose fault was it exactly? if it was his, his insurance should pay you for it and you could probably buy it back from the insurance company(if its considered totaled)

idk, i'd rather be hurt physically than have my car totalled like that. Metal just doesn't heal by itself over time.
