Thanks for your feedback. You spelt out pretty much exactly what I was expecting, that even though the door took most of it, the rocker and quarter panels got sucked in a bit, The B pillar is twisted and pushed back a bit, and the body will need to be realigned.

On the plus side, the wheel appears to have not been hit, the car *IS* drivable, minus a working drivers seat belt. I tried pulling the door open, and believe it or not it actually works. It took a heck of a slam to get it closed again, but it works, kind of.

I think this car is just going to become my “parts car”. It looks like insurance will require me to buy the cars salvage title if I want to keep it. Any idea what that will cost me? They said they take bids from junk yards on it… it’s an 84 GLT with 286k on it.

I’m going to see a doctor this afternoon. Thanks again!
