You have to pay off the note to your creditor before anything happens here. If the ins. co. is willing to pay more than you owe on the car, you have a chance of ending up w/it....depending on what the ins. co. feels it's worth for salvage. Remember, you'll be ending up w/a "salvage" title if you buy the car back. WJ
