This is what is left of a friend's Cobra Jet Torino. He had just left a car wash, when a Mustang GT pulled out and broadsided him.
Needless to say, he's not happy.

Ouch. It looks fixable - although not at all inexpensively.
Did he have a total loss classic car policy?
Damn. 
In reply to Huckleberry:
Yeah, insurance will cover it. What's getting him is it was his dad's car.
Damn. I think we all need a moment of silence.
Damn, will not buff out before anyone says it. I have no idea on Cobra Jet Torino value, but that's a lot of damage, It's gotta be worth a bunch if it's not going to be totaled.
That sux.
So when's he get out of jail? Need some help with bail money or anything?

I'm in the medical field, I volunteer to replace the bandages on his knuckles.
In reply to Adrian_Thompson:
It looks like it could be worth $25K and up.
The "Dad's Car" bit would be emphasized at the trial as "mitigating circumstances".
I am waiting for a lawsuit requiring FOMOCO to put a warning label on the Mustang's visor stating "Do not be a douche nozzle".
Weird all the years ive owned mustangs ive never smashed anyone or anything. Sorry for the loss of the car but the last dead torino gt i seen was at the hands of a cummins driver.
Are panels available for the Torino? If they are, I would just call that Russian BMW dude and have him over for a visit.
Sucks. But glad your friend is ok. Cars are just things. Even if it was your dad's thing first.
In reply to Toyman01:
Have you set up a Go Fund Me account for the repair of the Torino? 
In reply to John Welsh :
Sorry, no. It goes back to that want vs need thing.
In reply to ebonyandivory:
If it had been me it would have been awfully tempting to give the Mustang guy an additional airbag injury to his face.
Sadly after repairs the Owner no longer loves them the same way, It's a Passion Thing.
That was a beautiful example of one of my favorite cars.

Yes, any FoMoCo that is a real Cobra Jet is worth serious money these days.
That made me cry!

Seriously that sucks. I didn't even know the Torino Cobra jet Existed until now
Obviously the Mustang was acting out of jealousy.
