The girl was driving a late 80s oldsmobile or buick, smaller size car. I was actually amazed how little damage she had, my car took all the damage, and hers significantly less, even after two collisions.

I can say that the trunk floor, spare tire area, etc was all stragight and looked normal. The top of the opposite side quarter panel showed a bit of buckling, but not too much.

To me, this means that the frame didn't bend or warp much, but rather the energy impact of the crumpling quarter panel, and sheer force required to move my heavy car with brakes applied most likely absorbed most of the force. If the frame is in tact, I'd imagine that the quarter panels could be repaired. The front quarter panels wil be an easy replacement job, I know adsit sells 'new' ones for like $99 each.

I just hope the frame is straight, and that they can cut and weld new rear quarters.
