So here is damage to my car, from an assault concrete column.

They should be banned....

but anyway, What are my options for fixing this thing.  How much you think it will run.  Will they have a hard time matching paint.

Fack!!! I loved this car, and it was clean!  Now, it's ruined.



It's the front quarter panel, driver side, and a bit of the door.



Here it is from the passenger side

That isn't a bad fix because your Lincoln is made or real metal.  A good bodyman can have that smooth in about 3 hours.  That kind of repair in Michigan would run about $1200 with just a panel paint.  Matching the paint will be the problem.  If it's sun faded you should consider a complete repaint.  Lincolns of that "vintage" will begin to appreciate in value in just a couple more years.    

ETA Watch Ebay for a replacement wheel lip moulding.
