Doug,
I have nothing but high praise for my insurance co USAA. They have taken excellent care of me throughout the process. No hassles, or arguing over the estimate or the shop I chose and they paid the claim very quickly. I highly recommend USAA if you have the ability to use them.
Unfortunately, SPF does not offer fenders or ¼ bodies. You must buy a whole body at near $20k or a half at near $14k!!(I chose the half) when you add install and paint it is really expensive.
However, as a result of the ridiculous cost, we are discussing building a set of body molds. That would allow us to lay-up pieces locally. And only what people actually need (fenders, doors, hoods, trunk lids etc) and sell the parts thru Vinny’s shop (
JV Enterprises - Auto Restoration and Custom Hotrods)
It sure would be nice to be able to buy just a corner!
The frame was fine, the RR suspension, wheel and tire were replaced.
As for me, My neck is still tight (read whiplash) and I have a pain in my right arm ( they say “lateral epicondyitis” tennis elbow)
Other than that I feel fine! Lol
