Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
I am with Chrome as well. That IS American National. Only issue I have with them is they keep raising rates $20-$30 a year to "cover their costs" according to my agent and that is with no policy changes or claims. My last insurance went down a bit every year with no claims.
Hope this works out for you, all my car together are not worth your $40k but I may call my agent and bug him anyway about this. I would think they would do what they can to keep collectors happy because it is a real gold mine for them. We pay in on cars and trucks that see a lot less road than any other and they have to be garaged so I would think the claims percentage is much lower. Heck a $80k 2015 Vette would fall under standard insurance and much more chance of a gold chainer wrapping that around a pole. Good Luck and I agree with getting the quotes on your own and submitting them. The rest is waiting. |

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
So it went to auction already??? Congrats on buying it back so quick and cheap!
Hopefully they gave you the full totaled amount?

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Yes! After talking with the Director (Head of the Insurance Claims Dept.) it went super fast!!!! They put it in auction and actually told me that they rushed it through (to keep my buyback low) and that was the top bid before they pulled it from the auction. I did get my full amount and reimbersables as well, such as tow fees and registration for a show in February. Glad that's over....

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
I'm glad everything turned out ok for you . I'm really not sure but I think ride safely (one word ) or ride safe was an insurance auction site . I haven't looked at it in years so I'm not sure .

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Probably Copart. Glad you got the number you needed. Now, what's good and what's trash? You going Shorty this time? Most importantly, did the bicycle survive?

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
I think the cab can be pulled on a frame machine, it's just a little off. Front clip is trash, bed and tailgate are good. Engine turns over, bet she'll run. Trans is questionable right now. Everything else is good! Short bed next for sure, not sure of the year just yet but big back window swb!!!! And yes, the bike did fine! I'll take some photos of the teardown tomorrow. Should be able to have disassembly done in a day.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Glad you got it back so cheap if that much is still good. Good luck on the next one.

Hey bud!! It's one of those unfortunate things. I'll find another truck and start playing again. Slick will live on in other trucks, but the cab might be a good starting point for me to use on another project!!

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Teardown was sad, but on the other hand I was happy to see all the hard work again. The frame is really bent worse than I thought, it made getting the engine out fun!.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Holy COW!!! That ole truck took one heck of a hit! You're lucky you were in that old iron instead of one of these modern little plastic cars...you'd be tomato paste. Glad you didn't get hurt to badly!

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Thanks Ed! Yes sir, it was a hard hit. My truck moved about 1 ft to the side, the whole rear of his car was off the ground about a foot. The cop said it looked like he hit a brick wall.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Nice progress on the tear down. It's a wonder you didn't get significant injuries. Your truck took a hell of a shot. Looking forward to re assembly pics.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Spent a good while reading through this build thread and was just blown away by the talent put into it and to find out it ended up getting smashed by some idiot fleeing police was horrible. Sorry your hard work ended up like that.
