my 72 GMC was totaled. Not sure what to do.

[mstates88]

I have a situation that I'm not sure how to handle and I am hoping that you guys might have some good advice.

I have a 72 GMC longbed.
I was rear ended at a red light and my insurance company has totaled it.
I know I will never get back the $1500.00 I have put into the in the past year because I have already been down that road with the insurance company.

This is what I have done to it in the last year:
New distributor
alternator
shocks
battery
voltage regulator
window tint
seat re-upholstered
ignition switch
middle u-joint
a-c tubing under dash
a-c vaccum switch
new spark plugs and wires

It has all original trim on it.

Not sure if milage is 135000 or 235000.

So the question is, should i sit on it try to find a buyer who might want
it for parts or as part of a project, or should I take the insurance offer.

Its about a $1000.00 difference between the two.

Runs fine, it was my daily driver.

Thanks,
Mike
