Hi,
My 94 GS was hit on the driver's side rear wheel by an SUV traveling about 30 mph, breaking the axle, bending the cross bar just behind the axle, crumpling the quarter panel and warping the rear bumper. I was whipped around about 170 degrees. If it can fixed I would rather keep it. None of the shops here will deal with this.
I have been told that 1) with unibody construction this is not just a matter of replacing the quarter panel and possibly the bumper 2) there could be damage behind the quarter panel.
This is new territory for me and welcome any advice on how to assess the body/frame damage. I have done the usual type of body work.
Thanks in advance for your help.
