Motobecane experts - Am I nuts?

This is close to me, and at the price I'm considering buying it and replacing the fork:

This is clearly an '82 or '83 model with Vitus 172 frame. Anybody have an opinion on whether or not the frame itself would be compromised after a collision bad enough to bung the fork up like that? If I do this thing, what size fork would be a reasonable replacement? Would this have a 1" steerer tube?

Or do I just grit my teeth and walk away?
