Well it took two day's but IAAI's "Insurance Auto Auction Inc's" driver finally left with my truck. Hopefully I'll hear in the next day or two if my truck is a total loss, or fixable.
I love my truck, but I believe that I could love a newer one too.

This truck set level before. It's a little bit off kilter right now.

It looks very fixable, if it were written off the motor and tranny would be nice for a project...

I like the way that sounds, but I'm thinking more like a 66-67 Fairlane, or early 70's Torino

The insurance adjuster called me about an hour ago with some questions about the truck about an hour ago. Like I've noticed, it really looks like the Cowl, and Firewall are bent, they're also checking out the right front suspension, and frame.
He say's I should get an answer today, yea or nea.

From the looks of those pictures, I'd be pretty surprised if it didn't total. But sometimes pictures lie.

I wish you luck with which ever way it goes. You're gonna need a lot of patience.

You know better than that! I'm not wired for patients.
Just heard from our insurance company, and my baby is not totaled. Almost 10k in damages, and he said that 13k would have totaled it. But I also don't think this guy in the office is real slick either.
So now, I get to hurry up and wait until my baby is fixed.
Time to pop a top

That surprises me. $10k should be enough to do it, but good for you if you want to keep it!

Did they do a full tear down of it yet? I've had numerous vehicles get totalled out after tear down.
