I'm sort of sad the bear didn't pay the ultimate price for smashing your car. You could have gotten a bear rug out of it. On to the damage - the smashed front end parts are easy to find and replace, but it sounds like the radiator housing was bent inward, perhaps the upper chassis frame was bent in as well. The car I now drive (82T 4 door) was smashed in the front almost exactly the same as yours, except it was the driver's side door that was blocked by the hood. I rebuilt the front end by using parts from another 82 900, plus unbending the top most forward chassis frame where the radiator housing connected. A new hood was required as well and it fit almost perfectly with no door interference.
