Karla: I am glad to hear that both of you are OK. I have one thing to add, try to do some investigating into the buy back rule. The car is yours not the ins. companies. They owe you money if it is insured. They do not have the title. Do not let them take the car, have it moved to your property or rent a spot someplace. If they have it they can charge you storage fees or whatever they want to hold over your head to get the car so they can make money off of it. Do your homework right away. Hope this helps.

We were about a mile from the church when a lady making a left turn plowed into our driver's side. The Gremlin is totaled. Norbert has a broken rib & both of us are a little stiff & sore. > > She hit us at an angle & shoved the drive train out of the transmission. Broke both leaf springs on the driver's side. The gas tank is crushed. Flat tire & ruined rim on the rear driver's. Because of the unibody construction, there are dents on the passenger side. > > The accident was her fault but we're not sure what's going to happen with the insurance. We have an appraisal saying that the car is worth $3,000 because of being completely restored. We'd like to buy it back because the interior & rubber seals are worth $1,000. We also have a perfect grill (sorry guys not for sale. At least at this point.). > > It may be a little premature since we don't know what is going to happen with the insurance, but we may be looking for another Gremlin. A red interior would save a lot of work & we would like a v-8. Also a 1970 would be the Gremlin of choice but we'd take whatever we can find for the right price. If any one in the KS area knows of one that might fit the bill, let us know. > > > __________________________________________________________________ > Karla Dick > luvdmouse > ICQ#: 19049308 > Current ICQ status: > + More ways to contact me > __________________________________________________________________ > > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > > > > Community email addresses: > Post message: gremlintime@xxxxxxxxxxx > Subscribe: gremlintime-subscribe@xxxxxxxxxxx > Unsubscribe: gremlintime-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxx > List owner: gremlintime-owner@xxxxxxxxxxx > > Shortcut URL to this page: > http://www.onelist.com/community/gremlintime > Gremlintime(Home of the AMC Gremlin on the WWW): > http://www.geocities.com/gremlintime > > Your use of Yahoo!
