Yeah, that's the main thing. It's a damn shame about the car, the guy probably spent a lifetime (or a lifetime's savings) getting the car to that point, but in the end, it's only a car. The trauma and health after-effects they will have to live with after all this is over with is what I'd be concerned about, assuming that they are recovering reasonably. Nasty hit!

A side thought, is that stuff like this always tugs at the back of my mind whenever I drive something old without seat belts, head restraints, collapsing steering column, and other safety features that came to be over the last fifty years. But, still, I guess it's safer than riding a motorcycle...
