Looking for advice on repairs

Hello,

I have a 1994 mazda b2300 that I've had for about a year now. I put alot of time and money into this truck. Recently, I hit a deer. It smashed my front grill, headlamps, radiator, and radiator suport. Im looking to get it back on the road. It doesn't have to be pretty, just as long as it is functional.

Are there other headlamp assemblys that will fit these trucks with some modification? Im struggling to find them cheap, and sadly the salvage yards in my area charge new prices for parts. I am interested in any ideas that will get it driveable.

To clarify, i know scrapping it is probably the most effective option, but im not looking to do that.

If this is not the correct place for this post, just let me know and ill repost it accordingly.

1993 to 1997 are the best matches

Yes, unless a vehicle was rolled and totaled most wrecking yards won't have front end parts and will want alot for those parts if they do

You can look at used 1993-1997 Rangers, maybe find a rusted out blown engine or transmission Ranger that has good front end to part out

LMC Truck has these parts: https://www.lmctruck.com/1983-11-for...eel-body-parts

The plastic "header panel" which holds headlights and grille is availble on ebay, but $60
