I actually had, about $1000 dollars left after I bought the car back and made full repairs. Junk yard replacement parts which the insurance company would't permit? Insurance company was AAA at the time. Will see if I can find a photo of the damage. I remember having to get the car inspected after the work was completed and had to provide receipts of parts bought and repair work.
