ruined. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) note the top of the door gap on the dr side. in the windshield top frame you can see and indentation. there's another on the pass side. the 2 dips are where the front top latches are located.

i'm surprised nobody noted the dash pad. prob one of, if not the nicest i've ever had. targa bar pad has 0 belms. both with be saved for future use at this point. lots of quality parts on the car. top shelve 75' style gage cluster with a 150mph speedo, nice int, axles, suspention bits, etc.

what you can't tell from the pictures is that the car is tweeked. the windshield frame may be bent back as well.

the adj is scheduled to show up on tues.

Kev, do your homework for the appraiser this weekend. Locate cars for sale and print the ads. It is very likely as nice as your appraiser will likely be he won't have a clue to the value of that clean car. Once his info goes into his computer and he locates some low value comps it will be harder for him to refigure his offer. Often his work is done in a data base and it's locked and uneditable. So best to help him up front that complain later.

Really, do it this weekend. Hand him the stuff.

My 2 cents....... If the bones of the car are as good as I think they are then it would make a great roller for someone to make a AX / Racercar out of. If given the chance I would keep all the "good" parts that you wanted and sell the tub off as a roller project. I hope all goes well with the adjuster.

Guys, looking at this most of the damage is cosmetic (from what I can see). I would be concerned about the damage at the drivers windshield. If it tweeked the windshield frame. But the windshield is coming out anyhow.

It is salvageable. If the car has no rust in the usual areas I'd look at restoration.

there's aspects of the damage that doesn't show in the pictures. the driver's window exploded and door opens about 2" prior to binding. 3 out of the 4 fenders. tons of ripples. i think the car sits askew as well.' jack engle has looked at the car.
