You have 2 options.<br />1. Your insurance company buys your car from you and they pay you the ACV=actual cash value. That comes out to mid blue book. Some companys pay for performance parts, and some don't. I would make photo copies of all your recipts.<br /><br />2. You owner reatin your car. Here, they take your ACV - your salvage value. The salvage value is what the car would sell for at an auction. It usually is 20% of what the ACV is. <br />You get to keep your car, and have to go to DMV and register your car as a salvage. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Black88GT</b> <br /><small>Member # 394</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,11,14,14,33,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I dont know what the percentage is, but I bought my car back for 294.00 They said it was worth 5,660.00. Way over bue book value. But it was pretty clean. When you keep it, you will have to have it inspected by dmv, and have a brake and light inspection. When the insurance totals it, the add extra money for the dmv fees, thus why I got a check for 5,900. Give them as many recipts as you can, to up the value. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
