Hey Pokee, I strongly second HLS's response.  He is being fair to a
possibly unknowing dealer.  I think consumers like to deal with dealers who
are both honest and competent--one without the other leaves too much in
doubt.
   He is also fair and accurate in his portrayal of high quality and
accuracy of body/frame work that CAN be done, as well as the fact that ALL
shops do not perform the same degree of quality repairs.
   Last, if you know a shop which is both competent AND honest, you can get
a fair appraisal of the quality of work that has been done, to some degree
the amount of work/damage performed, and thus a pretty good indicator of
future problems that may arise as a result of the vehicle's history.
   Some of the best vehicles I've had experience with, both thru personal
use and watching customers' service obtained, have been from
properly-repaired vehicles.  And I have had somewhat widespread exposure
thru direct experience via spending a number of years in the used automobile
profession.
   Good luck & here's hopes you can continue learning and profiting from
excellent advice that is often given here.
