Held together surprisingly well after a Toyota van slammed into the back of him going 40-50mph. Pretty sure its totaled. Frame damage is pretty bad. Both rear does wont open and there is a crease in the roofline.

I should have taken pics of the van... that thing was all messed up! Front bumper ripped off. Radiator and condensor were destroyed. Hood was in a nice "v". Engine shifted back all the wat to the firewall.

At first glance, I didn't even see anything wrong with it. I thought you were posting before and after pics. Glad they all came out ok though.
