Yep, all true.
Many years ago (I drove my first '67 122S) I was caught by a Opel Kadet from the rear standing before a traffic light.
He was doing 30-40 km/h and I was pushed into the Toyota standing in front of me.

The driver of the Opel had to climb out of the window because the fenders had moved backwards and blocking the doors.
My nose was kissing the front seat of the Toyota and a lot of oil and cooling water ran on the street.

After checking all were well I pulled my fenders off the front wheels, checked under the hood (all was well, technically speaking) and started the car.
A policeman came towards me and couldn't believe the car was drivable and asked if I needed a flatback.
"No thank's" I responded, "If you don't need me anymore I'd like to go home"

Needless to say I was the only car who left the scene running it's own engine....
