Sorry to hear about this.  You have to wonder at the cosmos sometimes.  Might have been worse if you'd had it parked in a garage.

So I'm in the kitchen and hear a big bang. Walk outside and find that a
Pontiac Bonneville smacked into the rear corner of a 1975 VW bus parked
at the curb, pushing that bus into Mellow Yellow's passenger rear side,
pushing MW sideways.

MW was in the driveway.

I'll take it for a drive, see if it's mechanically okay. If anyone sees
anything in the photos that look like more careful inspection of the van
is required, it would be great to know so I can have it checked into
before the adjuster makes up his mind.

Film at 11. No, wait, photos here:
