I went to get plate for my 68, (Fine69's 68 C20, Thanks Fine!!) and had to pay taxes on the purchase price, or on book value. They would not take the value fine and me put on the title so I had to get him to fill out another form......Sorry short story turned long....Any way I said 'What 's the book value ?' She looks it up in a yellow book (Looked like the blue book, but for older vechiles) and says Average Value for a 68 LWB C-20 is $5000! So I faxed Fine69 the form and paid a lot less in sales tax.
Also years ago I had the same thing happen with my truck. I gathered up local car traders with like optioned truck for them to use as what it would cost to replace the truck. I believe you should have a strong case for more $$$ for your truck, regardless of what you had your truck insured for. By the way I only have liability insurance on mine. Good Luck, and I hope the Lawyer doesn't eat up all the extra dollars.
