trya dding rust to the equation. Ask me how I know? Well, I'll tell you. 6 months agop I was rear ended by a '94 Grand Am at probably 20mph. I was in my '79 300SD. Well, it broke her front license plate holder and bent something. Total damage to her car was $84. Mine, well it popped bondo off that the PO lady had done and bent the frame and door frame. Also left a crease right behind the gas filler lid. Total estimate for my car was $3000. Got it all completely fixed though for $900 and even got some other rust spots fixed with bondo. I know, should have done fiberglass. Anyways, my car didn't even seem to be that rusty, oh well.
