Garage
Oh, I have no problem with telling the insurance company what I paid for the car, but my purchase was 3 years ago, before the prices of SCs and 3.2 Carreras started going up, up, up. I think it was the other victim in this thread who may have not wanted to say.

If I could buy my car all over again for what I paid for it, I would take their offer today. But I can't, because prices have more than doubled.

Anyway, I just got another voicemail from the twit. They went up another $200 (Wow!) and said because the car's interior had been removed, and the motor had high miles, that's as high as they can go.

I countered with the fact that I have ALL of the interior in boxes in my garage, ready to go back in anytime, the latest Blackstone oil analysis showing a still great engine, the Autometrics dynamometer reading showing 209 hp at the wheels, and the Autometrics invoice showing engine drop, check, reseal, valve adjust, and transaxle rebuild.

I'm ready to settle for a reasonable amount, but they aren't. Yet.
