I have a 1984 300DT. In Novemeber my neighbor backed into me at about 20mph!!!

I know its nothing close to that of a 35+mph side impact, but the car did very well.

No frame damage. Both driver side front and rear doors need to be replaced, and the rocker panel needs to be pulled out very slightly. Both doors open, although the rear door is slightly jammed.

There is a picture of the damage on my homepage link. Go to my profile and click on the link if you would like to see what the damage looks like.

cheers!
