Insurance would not have repaired it.

They would have totaled it.

Yes, she would have gotten the total out value though.

Blue book $5-7k, Parts cost $1,100-1,500.

Taking the low and high $7k value - $1,100 fix it cost leaves $5,900.

What would someone buy it for?

Maybe $2k to make it worth the hassle / risk.

But then they are selling an accident vehicle so would it really be worth $5-7k?

Me thinks not.
