nickw said:Right now I think my only wiggle room is on the value of the truck.
Only way to get more is drive the value of the truck up.
The $6000 is coming from an outside source other than ICBC.
So even if the truck value goes up, the amount Veron auto wrecking would offer is the same. Thus my buy out is the same.
I want the whole truck, not just the accessories.
So I presented my case for $23.5+.
We will see what the adjustor says.
If he does not want to give it to me, I will go to the next level.
The price I am asking I think is reasonable.
What do others think? Am I asking for more than its worth?
Cheers,
Nick
this is the reason i provide an independent appraisal for all the units i sell. it would suck to have a HJ61 weote off and get $2000 for it based on CDM units...jcolvin said:I have heard ICBC base their pay-out on auction price in Japan and shipping, so lets hope they don't do that to you.
crushers said:people get your units appraised and submit this to the insurane company. here in Alberta that means higher premiums but at least you are covered.
crushers said:if ICBC doesn't cover the "add-ons" then he should be able to take them off the unit before it goes to the wrecker...
Jim_Hbar said:That being said, it doesn't make alot of sense that ICBC would have Vernon bidding on Nick's truck.
semlin said:just saw this thread. nick I'm sorry to hear of your troubles. all i can say is well done in dealing with the situation practically and mentally. looks like you have things well in hand in all departments. nice to see cruiser_guy again as well. had a nice chance to meet him earlier this year...
an occasional but long time member of the 80s group, wrench, rolled his 80 a while back and I believe he straightened the pillars cosmetically, replaced the glass, but put a cage inside. You might want to consider that as your cheapest option. maybe shoot him a PM or PM junk who would know how to reach him.
one other option is that, last time i was there, interior auto had a decent looking 55 body in the yard. HDJ55 has not been done yet! of course they would want too much for it, but I'm sure you could find a 55 somewhere.

It's a good thing that ICBC didn't refer to that auction when establishing the salvage value. Buy it now for $19,900 with a damaged crankshaft.![]()

Interior seems to get ALL of the ICBC wrecks. They generally have a dozen or more any time I've been there.
