the B pillar looks like it held up fine. It's the roof that didn't fare so well.

These pictures are from a '90 that wrecked locally here a few months ago. My dad bought the car to part out. The body shop and paramedics estimated the wreck to be at 130+ MPH. I'd say the hoop held up extremely well.
