Re: Ouch, my poor Z28
Moving forward, the car is at a shop in Austin that can do a tear down and an accurate estimate. I still think the car should be totaled, but they need to have the hood and fenders pulled to see the true extent of the damage. It still hurts to see the car in this condition.

Re: Ouch, my poor Z28
I was going to offer my Camaro as partial trade on Charley’s RS Z28 if I made it to the show. Had plans to go to Chicago for the show, but I had to cancel at the last minute.

Re: Ouch, my poor Z28
Well, the verdict is in and the car will be repaired. The damages equal about 50% of the value of the car and it’s just not enough to total the car in anyone’s book. It’s a decision that I can easily live with and I have a shop that will do a good job with the repair. On the back end, I can apply for diminished value if the vehicle is worth less, I intend to do this.
I’m looking for parts including a sub-frame inner fenders, fenders, hood, Rally Sport front end, radiator and support. The bumpers survived the accident.
