Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List Hello, The Vette is up and running. After reading everyone's suggestions, I went to Autozone and picked up an HEI coil (a stock one, as in cheap!). After installing the coil, I turned the key and it started - for a mintute, then it died. I tried again and it started doing what it was doing before! I moved the distributor around a few times and it finally started and stayed running. It appears that the coil went bad - it was a farily new coil so I figured it wasn't the problem. For now everything seems to be back to normal (except for the empty house). In a couple hours I'll go out and see if it still starts.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Jana's Elky down
fixable is one thing; bottom line is what the insurance company wants to do is what the insurance company will do. good luck dealing with them. i hope it is a decent insurance company. i just dealt with State Farm on a 87 buick park avenue that was mint (mother -in-laws -57000 miles) . i went online and did some research and also used some NADA books. when the smoke cleared their offer was within $100.00 of my figures. They weren't close to my mother-in-laws figures but she didn't even know what year (this is another story) the car was. Larry (Z)
Re: [Chevelle-List] Jana's Elky down
Kelly: that will be between you and the adjuster. they will have a set price that they will let you have the car for. is it drivable? if it int figure if you do keep it that it will have to be towed again. then were will you keep it? can she be without a car for the amount of time it takes you to fix it? can you get all the parts you need immediately ? ` i think after you get your bids you will be surprised how much it will cost to fix. well maybe you won't but a lot of people get the sticker shock and just don't believe how expensive it is to fix a crunched up car. you may want to look at what you can buy another decent one for if they total it and use it for leverage on the price. larry

The Cutlass got rearended by a F**d F150 back in April 1997. I was quoted $1300 to have a shop fix it. I fixed it myself for a total of $37 and about 2 hours. I went to a U-pull-it yard and got everything i needed to fix it, even a car of the same color, Rear bumper, 2 backup light lenses, and the bumper cover. The down part was I couldn't turn it in to the other party's insyrance company b/c the cop wrote up the report incorrectly. He showed me as cutting the guy off, when it was a plain as day rearend hit. Luckily it didn't buckle the 1/4 panels on it. I also ended up getting a sprained neck muscle out of the whole ordeal too.

RE: [Chevelle-List] Jana's Elky down
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List When my 67 Nova was T-boned, the insurance company considered it totaled. That only meant that they would not pay as much to fix it as it would cost. I didn't have to buy it back all I had to do was *not* junk it. I had just rebuilt the engine and it had about 1,000 miles on it. Luckily I found a 63 Nova in great cosmetic shape w/ no engine in it for $300. It may be something that varies from state to state, or it may be that they did things differently back then, but I don't remember having to pay anything to buy the car back. All I had to do was tow it home and accept the few hundred dollar maximum payout.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Jana's Elky down
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List Kelly, treat you car and medical damages separately. If the car is totalled come back at the insurance with any newer repairs or reconditioning done to the car as part of a revised settlement on the car. For medical you would have what ever expenses you personally incurred. For pain and suffering, typical settlements are 3 times your medical bills. If you wife works, you could also be entitled to any lost wages due to time lost resulting from the accident. I've been down this path after getting T-boned by a kid doing 50 mph - I walked away - the car was totaled - bought it back from the insurance company as I had just rebuilt the engine - parted everything else out and paid $20 for the salvage yard to pick up the shell.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Jana's Elky down
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List Kelly, treat you car and medical damages separately. If the car is totalled come back at the insurance with any newer repairs or reconditioning done to the car as part of a revised settlement on the car. It won't go to total unless they are really high on the estimates. I haven't done much to the car since we bought it. The lowest value I've found for it online is only $200 less than we paid for it. For medical you would have what ever expenses you personally incurred. We aren't paying anything up front for medical, they are working with the lawyers and the guy at fault's insurance will get all the bills. For pain and suffering, typical settlements are 3 times your medical bills. If she goes into therapy and treatment, I guess it'll take them awhile to complete the treatment until we know what the amount is. I wonder how long all this will takeguess that's up to the doctor (who treated Jana 8 years ago for a similar problem) If you wife works, you could also be entitled to any lost wages due to time lost resulting from the accident. She owns her own business, so I don't know if they can figure for that or not. Hope everything works out for you and our wife! Thanks, I think she'll be okay, we won't know about the MRI until tomorrow evening or Friday. As far as I go, I just want her to be well and for her not to lose the car to a total and a shitty payout for itI'm doing my homework on it tonite Kelly C.

I hope to be adding a couple thousand NOS parts to the OCN web site soon. I'll let you guys know when it's there.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Upgrade
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List Very cool, Dale. What mufflers are you using with the American Thunder pipes? I've got a pair of 70-series big-block Flows on my '71 small-block convert and really like the deep rumble. Also, same as you, no drone at cruise speeds. Was curious about the 50-series Delta Flows. Anybody got a set on their Chevelle? Opinions? The only problem with the 70-series is their size... it's a tight fit because of their length, and the installation requires some judicious trimming on both the mufflers and tailpipes to make 'em fit. Flowmaster claims the Delta Flow design eliminates in-car rumble, and looking at the size chart, they'll fit up a whole lot easier. Thinking about putting a set on my wagon, and some feedback here would help with the decision. Chuck 396guy wrote: Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List Thanks Kelly.

Title: Message oh my what have i started.. i leave for an hour to look at a 68 ss for my father in law and i come back and u guys are already going at it.. he he he we didn't buy it,,, - Original Message - From: John Nasta To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2002 8:20 PM Subject: RE: [Chevelle-List] Ground Up Resto: - Rip off? ! BTW, I do have some objection to this statement. I have only been on this list since the summer, but I don't know of anybody from Ground Up "helping this list" in any way during that time. OTOH, I think I was the first person to send money to Keith (that's not why I did it either), and I also have answered many a mechanical question here. I am not saying that you're wrong Al, but what exactly do they do to "help this list"? I personally haven't noticed anything. I'm just curious.
