See how much for a buyback, so you can at least get the engine.

Tell Dwiggs the engine has been custom tucked and rolled, he'll buy it as a mod for his.

the hood is straight it seems. with the buy back, you can probably sell a bunch of interior pieces.
that sbc fe you have wont fit a new truck, put it in the classifieds to start a new buildup, or maybe you can send it back to sbc to trade for one for a g56 for your new ride.

good thing you werent hurt.

that's bad luck, sorry. If they give you the go ahead on fixing the truck, I hate to be the one to say it, but the truck will never be the same.

The only things I didn't get off the truck were the tires, shocks and the stacks. Everything else came off. If anybody is interested in any of it, keep checking the classifieds... I will take pics of everything and enter them in tomorrow.

If you haven't already done so, present your insurance company with a list of recent (within last 6 -12 months) of major repairs/mods and they should increase the book value accordingly; then tell them you want to keep the title and they'll reduce your payout by the salvage value and any lien you might have on it. That way, you can keep the truck and do what you want with it... if it was mine it'd be awful tempting to make it into a toy to play with!

Sorry to hear of your loss.

Saw your ads in the classifieds which led me to this thread, sorry to hear about the truck, especially after putting so much into it.

Buying your stuff will seem like picking at the bones but it's nice you're willing to help others fix up their rides!

I can't help but notice the integrity of the cab after the rollover. You would think it'd crush in like a beer can. Looks like they are building em like they ought to be and it's a good thing too!

Also, as you probably found out, the insurance company will not cover any of the mods unless you informed them of those and gave them copies of reciepts before the wreck. They increase premiums to cover expensive custom wheels, stereos, etc.
