Go to nada classics. You will be suprised. You might want to talk about lawyering .. I want to say "Average" retail is close to 7,000 and "High" retail is upwards of 9,000 from memory. High retail is not a 100 pointer either, It is just in tip-top shape with no need of reconditioning (mechanics, interior or paint) State Farm did that for my 84 SD about 14 mos ago and came up with $7800 value (!) BTW I think low retail is still north of $4,000 -j.

She informs the errant driver that his insurance company won't repair the car and so he should pay up and do his own arguing with the adjuster. RLE
