Default 40th Anniversary Car

I do not have the time (or requisite knowledge) to bring this car back, but someone here should.

I know - it's sad. 911 40th Nr. 1206 and a former concours winner. Her owner is safe and sound thankfully - car wrecked thanks to a drunk driver.

more than $25k of damage? Why is it totaled?
unless the tub is damaged beyond “reasonable” repair, I would have fought to have it fixed right.

glad owner is ok.

My #1095, also a show winner, went through this same Copart earlier this year. I think it sold for about $8,000. Sport seats, IMS solution, 26K miles.
But I'd bent the tub pretty well.
Watch the auction and buy this one. It's worth a shot!

Did you have an agreed value with insurance co.? Your car sounds like a $35k+ Example?

O.P. Car looks like a value around $33k+/-. 33 x 75% = $24,750. Too bad they couldn’t keep it from a branded title.

I might be a little high on values, but places like BAT have helped push comparison values up to the point of higher threshold for total loss.
