you have more than enough stuff already buddy

 

when the car goes through ins its ganna have a salvage title...

 

sub-frame is pushed down for sure... totally not an easy fix for someone without a body shop. but totally worth fixing for sure

 

only if they total it, like i stated in the pm

 

The car will not have a salvage title as long as it is older then 6 years old in the state of NJ...

 

there were only i think a little over 4 thow ss camaros built in 99. depending on options depends on the value, it would be a shame to dump a ss and not try to repair it.

 

Since when? so there is a lot of potentially seriously damaged vehicles in NJ?

your welcome to buy it and repair it once insurance is done.

 

I just had mine totalled air bag deployment front bumper inner metal bumper and I am buying it back with a loan still on it and they are still paying me 700 to own it lol. Which is about what it is going to cost to fix it slightly over.

 

The reason is bc cars like yours are being totaled for minor damange. There is no reason to brand a car like that with a salvage title for minor repairs. For instance.. if someone vandalizes a 2000 chevy cavalier by keying the entire car insurance would have to write up for a full repaint, probally a 2-3k job for a car worth maybe $1000 bucks.

 

insurance company said that it is probably totalled today and i could buy it back with a salvage title.

 

Orrrr. You dont take the claim, nor money. Keep the car and fix yourself and there is no Salvaged Title.

 

I would question the insurance company.. i was 90% sure if the car is older the 6 years old you would not get a salvage title..

 

gtfo they total losted that for that little damage they didnt even consider a total lost for a girl who backed into my ta need a new door and quarter pulled out like 3k in damages

 

I hear what your saying and I can see the pic but Ins. Co. run on formulas and set rates as well as proceedures.

When I see that pic, we all can see it needs a bumper. But its not just that, its the parts which they need to find factory replacement in most cases. They need to have it prepped and painted but the issue with Silver or other metallic colors is that you need to blend into the rest of the car which in your case the front clip will need to be done.

Cost add up and I am sure with the age, they did not want to bother to try to make you whole.

 

Sorry for your misfortune. I think either way you should fix the car, Looks like about 4k in damage, insurance should cover that. I had a similar accident a long time ago. It sucks, but keep it or sell you would probably be better off fixing it right.

 

car is totalled, went to the notary today to turn in my clean title for a salvage one to get my insurance payout. car is pending sale currently
