Sorry bout the car, Trev. I had an accident similar with a 94 Camaro years ago. I was driving along and hit black ice and the car went all willy nilly til it stood up on a telephone pole. I had rims and a cowl hood on it so the cop immediately thought I was speeding. He was writing the report when WHAM! there was a head on collision about a half a block away. Seems the ice did exist! Glad you are OK.

Glad you are ok. Sux about the Challenger but you know that already.

Not sure about California, but here in Illinois, Insurance COs won't let you buy back your salvaged wreck if they deem it is not worth the repair cost AND if the car is less than 5 yrs old. Something to do with making it easier to take down chop shops by keeping these newer car salvage titles out of the hands of the general public (if you've got one, you must be a criminal; or some goofy logic like that). But I think you can petition to buy back parts (engines, etc) from the insurance company if you can get them to give you the auction information.
