Chuck...go for it...you have all my support..
im sure you have plenty of experience in this area...
repairing the dents and looks of the car are the easy part...
repairing mechanical damage is the difficult part, and the important part... i hope it doesnt take too long....good luck...

Driver’s Passenger side Windows
Passenger's side windows. Both of them? Even one would be interesting as to how that happened from the looks of the damage. Looks like it was an angling collision from the front to the rear. If so, it's hard for me to visualize how the windows on the other side got hammered.

Typo on my part. Just the driver's side was damaged. It did not get into the rocker panel.
