But if they put it as a total loss then he won't be able to insure it easily.

It will take a little effort,but,the insurance co. has not seen the car so that is not "carved in stone" yet. Getting coverage on a salvage title can be done. He seems to have the right company to work with,they even allow coverage for added aftermarket parts which is unusual except for guys like Grundy. I'm sure whatever the case Gerald will come out fine.Originally Posted by Mia95
Now if we could only get him to explain his name change here.
Florida is very quick to give certificates of destruction. Once they hit you with that, the car cannot be put back on US roads. My NA was rear-ended about a year ago (as some of you know) and only had some minor cosmetic damage and a broken diff carrier ear. That got my NA a certificate of destruction as it is all based on cost of repair versus value. From what I was told by the gentleman who towed the car away, it would likely live out it's life driving the roads of a Caribbean Island somewhere. I can only hope.
Eschew obfuscation, espouse elucidation.

Not quite Ron... Different states, different regs... There are plenty of "FL totals" meandering in other parts of the South and Midwest... You just can't get it register in FL again. It will have a "rebuilt title" wherever it goes, the equivalent of automotive "scarlett letter" if you will!
