I had a friend that had his Fathers original Pick up. It was wrecked in a collision and was declared "Totaled " by the Insurance Company. He wanted to keep his fathers truck, so did not accept the "Totaled" verdict. They said he could by the vehicle with a Salvage Title from the Insurance. That too he did not accept, he told them that it was Truck, and would not accept a Salvage Title and would not accept it was a Total. He stood his ground, and refused to accept the Insurance Companies evaluation, they (the Insurance Co.) "Totaled" it because of the cost to fix it was greater than what it was worth. To my friend it was priceless, it was his fathers truck. He ended up not accepting the "Salvage" Title, and had the Insurance pay him, "Value" and kept the original Title, since it was his all along. The moral of this story is, You don't need to accept the "Totaled" or Salvage Title just because it will assist in the Insurance Company handling the disposition of your car. Have them pay what they will pay, keep your clear "Title", and get it repaired! Anything can be fixed, if you have the strength of will to pursue it. Don't allow the Insurance to "Salvage" it, they just don't want to fix it. Stand your ground, it may take a long time, Don't give it up.

It really depends on how it was insured.

If Jerry just added it to his regular car ins., he won't get much, unless he added a rider.

If he had it insured with Haggerty, they have a guy who is a specialist in finding parts for our old cars.

They would have it repaired. I don't think it was anywhere near totaled, only if he didn't have special Insurance on it.

His regular policy would say it's too old and offer $maybe 500. and his deductible would eat that up.

Answer is, Carlton, check before NOT after an accident! Haggerty, or Roberts, which I had specialize in old cars and will take care of their customers.
I never had a claim, but every thing I see about Haggerty indicates they are very good in making you whole.

Hello,

You hate the thought of your 300 ending like this, but it raises a question.

Who and how is the salvage or scrap value determined and established, and do our insurance policies (or any policies) give the car owner the first right to buy his ‘totaled’ car?

Could a clause like that be added to a policy if that question isn’t clearly covered?

Thanks,  

Carlton

Can someone close to the Wilcox's try to help and keep the car from being sent to the scrap yard?

It is sitting somewhere and likely to be bought for salvage or scrapped when the insurance company settles.

Bigger loss for them and the limited number of surviving Hursts, not to mention the special parts involved.

Glad they are alright, sorry for the terrible end to a great weekend for them.

Ray
