How to check and see if a 911 was hit hard?

I've been looking at numerous Carrera's and SC's over the past months and I've seen quite a few with accident damage. Is there a "go no go" check of weld points/structures that a novice can look at to determine if a 911 has been wrecked?

I want a driver, not a show car, is a light bump with a good repair acceptable if the basic structure has not been damaged? I've seen some bumps I barely caught, really good older repairs that have been somewhat covered up years and lots of driving.

I already wasted $325.00+ on a PPI for an '89 that needed an engine rebuild among other things. I don't want to keep blowing through PPI's, any advice?

I guess I need to find a mint original and look it over top to bottom - just so I know what the welds, seams, etc. look like on a proper example, advice?
