Sometimes. A car is a "total loss" only when the price of repairs exceeds the insurance company's determined value of your vehicle. Now days, most cars are built using unibody (frame and body as one) construction. Our highly skilled technicians, with aid of of our state-of-the-art computer measurement system, can return your vehicle to its original factory specifications.
