Answer
Hi Larry, By your description of the damage to the A Pillar it should be able to be pulled out and a new door put on. you can expect the Frame repair to be around 6-8 Hrs. you will also be charged for 1/4 panel and front fender repairs and painting time. Hope this helps and also get more than one estimate from your local shops ---Cheapest is not always best and use a reputable shop. Thankyou
