Subject:      t-boned!
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

this past weekend my baby (an 85 camper) was t-boned by a drunken hit and run driver....luckily we ran for 5 blocks and got his license plate number. anyways, tomorrow the adjuster is coming to look at the damage. i was amazed at how little damage there was for getting drilled at about 35 mph. anyways, my question is this: what possible damage, aside from the obvious cosmetics to the body, could have occured and how should i look for it? the car hit the drivers side dead on at the rear wheel. it doesn't appear to have done any structural damage, but i would hate to settle now and find out down the road that something worse had happened. i did drive it away and it seemed to handle normally, but could the propane tank/lines, wheel, tire, frame, engine, or anything else been damaged in the collision? i would appreciate any advice on this, it's my first accident.

sad, depressed, and praying that his insurance is valid, kurt

PS: the guy was arrested for DUI.
