Trust me on this one, although it's probly not what you wanna hear. Whether you have receipts or not the insurance company is only gonna give you money for whay you have insured or what would be a blatant upgrade (stereo, wheels, exhaust, lowering springs)... I had my 97 Integra stolen and got about 80% of the value of the parts (stereo, wheels, exhaust, springs) and at first even though I had EXTRA coverage for those things they wouldn't give me money until I harrassed my agent and then they only covered the parts I previously listed.... They tried to give me $300 for my BRAND NEW wheels.. Each wheel without a tire was $475!! ALL ther mods other than those they CLAIMED were factory options, which they tried to tell me EVERYTHING was a factory option... I guess it ALL depends on your insurance company, but MINE was HELL! I never wanna have a car jacked again for the fatc that it sux AND you have to deal with insurance.

Good luck. You have my prayers

 

So i called my friend who got his civic vandleized. He actually got 10 grand back , but at first they tried to only give him 5 but he did not settle and got what his receipts were all added up too...and bought his car back for 1,000.

 

its been 2 days now and still no stripped car.. How long does it take to strip a car danm... I wish i knew what the hell they are planning on doing with my car. They gotta dump it sometime soon i hope.

 

I use to work for one of the auctions and trust me you do not want to get between them and the car. The worst are the Russian buyers they will make you vanish.

 

Ive always wanted to find the people that do these things, like the members of the gangs that steal cars and strip them, then steal their car and strip it. Maybe leave a love note on it or something.

Whatever you do, if it ends on the auction block and there are a group of guys trying to buy it, out bid them, or bid the **** out of it so they have to pay out the *** for the stripped chassis...and keep your cell handy in case they approach you :P

 

As a paralegal I have worked with insurance companies and I can tell you adjusters are as bad if not worse than attorneys. They may only offer you blue book initially and the first offer is always garbage usually an insult. Like what has already been said the adjuster is going to try to screw you any way possible. I thought insurance companies were supposed to be our friends, yeah and pigs fly. Check your policy limits because that is the max they have to pay and read the fine print, that's where they really get you. If you have replacement value coverage then it won't be too bad because they will pay what it cost you to replace everything. Another thing to take into consideration is how old each item is because they will figure out the depreciated value.

If there is anything I can do to help pm me.

im really about to say **** the cops and go handle some buisness that **** stole over 12 grand from me....

you want to torch his car you should use thermite simple and very effective i can give you a recipe if you don't know it




Through the hood the block and watch the plack pool and cool under the car

 

or use cheap napalm. ( gasonline and styrophome) ( spelling?)
i know thermite would be waybetter but im pretty sure that way of making napalm is WAY! cheaper lol

 

no
Rust plus aluminum 50/50 ratio and magnesium fuse (pull a flashbulb apart for that) then just use a small hand torch as the lighter stem back and watch the engine bay dissapear

with the price of gas right now and the fact that you really need carosean not gas it's way cheeper 10 times harder to put out and 100 times more damaging we are talking heat that vaporises cast iron

 

thermite over the gas tank....

 

get a polaroid camera and bunch of friends, and have a person or two watching his house 24/7... he's got to open the garage some time and when he does snap a picture and call the police...
maybe bring a photocopy of the title so you can prove it's yours..

 

all my friends work and get off around 4 pm or 6-pm.. weekends is the only good day i can think of to sit in my car around the corner and watch ... unless one of u guys would wanna scope it out for me...

 

remember this is a public forum so if ya wanna tell me how to make somthing or plan somthing pm me dont put it on here...

 

lol never gave any details that aren't widely known already
