that and a white one i know of. :yesnod:

Yes, I agree about the white one. Perhaps we could position both cars so it looks like I broadsided it.

They're still shuffling paper around and the car just sits. What a long, drawn out process.

The waiting has got to suck. Hang in there and I like your plans of the DMCL Charger. That could be your car.

It's official. The car is totalled. They wrote it off. :'(  Lant/Silver Wheel/ Haggerty Insurance or whatever they call themselves came through and paid me the full value hassle free. The slowdown was caused by the overworked insurance adjusters they used. I'm still sad about it all but, I walked away which is the main thing. I just wanted to let you all know.

I'd be pretty happy as long as the payout figure allows you to get into something in similar condition and value. The crappy thing is the hassles and having to wait to find it yourself.

Do you have salvage rights or do you have to buy it back if you wanted it.

That is a horrible crash!  :icon_smile_blackeye:
Glad to hear no one was hurt and that you're able to rebuild! It's always a shame to see great cars go to a graveyard!
The 2nd life of your ride will be great with which ever rebuild you choose!  :2thumbs:

Great to hear they paid the full agreed value....did you get to keep the car?

404NOTFOUND

Yes I still have the car. I will be selling it. It can be fixed but is only worth it to someone with the right resources. People I have never heard of have been phoning or visiting me looking to buy it. Two of them have first dibs and then I will offer it here as I have found a lot of talented people are on this forum. Setting the right price will be not be easy.

No worries there. They have a sterling reputation and they deserve my recommendation. There will be another classic car in my future and I will be insuring with them again.

What made you change your mind on the DMCL resto?

I am glad it was settled to your satisfaction. At least you can move on. I think it would be great if you could get it to Moparfest.
I can see how it would be tough to come up with a value.

What changed my mind was that even I'm not sure it can be fixed afffordably unless I did it myself which I don't have the spare time.

I just hope whoever ends up with the car will bring it back to life.  I hate to see any 2nd generation charger die, but especially one as nice as that one!  Good luck to you though, I couldn't imagine being in your shoes.  And I don't even have a charger yet!  :'(

So you gonna get another Charger and give it the DMCL treatment?
Gotta love a '69

Sadly, I will not be getting another Charger. My reasons are very similar to the member with the orange '69 that was much discussed here (sorry I forgot his user name). That was never the plan but, the car being written off changes everything. I am as uncertain about the repair costs as the insurance company was and I have to go with a classic car that costs tens of thousands less which means no Charger. I am going to try to make sure that the car goes to someone who has the resources to fix it as it is too good to part out.

Are you planning to replace it with some other classic car then?  Another Mopar?
