Kelly,
Be careful dealing with Allstate; I got the middle finger from the "Good Hands"
people once.

Subject: Re: [Chevelle-List] Jana's Elky downthat will be between you and the adjuster. they will have a set price that they will let you have the car for. is it drivable? if it int figure if you do keep it that it will have to be towed again. then were will you keep it? can she be without a car for the amount of time it takes you to fix it? can you get all the parts you need immediately ? ` i think after you get your bids you will be surprised how much it will cost to fix. well maybe you won't but a lot of people get the sticker shock and just don't believe how expensive it is to fix a crunched up car. you may want to look at what you can buy another decent one for if they total it and use it for leverage on the price.
I just pulled up the value and found that it rests somewhere between $3300 and $4150. It could cost that much to fix, but I doubt it. We've discussed the options that lie ahead and she wants to keep it if she can....if not it's her call about what comes next. I told her that 1979 is the cutoff year, so no telling what she might pick next...her ears perked up when I said Firebird or Camaro....
We talked to several people today....got her MRI and evaluation and also talked to a lawyer. Allstate, it seems, is very hard to deal with and doesn't like to pay claims. Glad we called the pro in to help deal with the insurance company. My insurance company also said our PIP would pay the costs of the medical if his insurance was not paying or wasn't current, so we're covered on her injury either way.
We won't know until tomorrow, what the MRI or evaluation says, but she has several areas that will require therapy......Kelly C. Hanna
