its a sad day for camrys on TN thankfully this happened before the train accident in Des plaines so the guy that did the hit and run got caught quick Damn you Scotts Lawn!
Make sure to push for as much money you can from the other persons insurance. Also, talk to your insurance since they should represent you just in case you need it.
Even if it were newer, that would definitely be a goner.

pretty sure the insurance will claim it a total loss.
... but you could ask around local body shops that do some junk yard cars restoration and ask them how much for fixing it (show them pics)
then ask insurer how much for buying it back from them and maybe you will still have the car and some money in pocket, only difference the car will carry a Salvage title.

In a nutshell, what he said. I don't know how it works in other states, but in Michigan, if the repair exceeds 75% of the value then it's declared a total loss, but exceptions ARE made as I found out... If the shop can convince them that the car can be repaired at the car's NADA/KBB value, and the owner has no alternative, they may just go for it.
