The head and seat tubes are still in perfect alignment to each other. There's absolutely no sign of joint failure. If I came across a suitable replacement fork, wheels, crankset, handlebars, well everything really, I wouldn't hesitate to straighten the stays, rebuild it and ride it.
Ouch! Glad you fared better than the bike.
