Overwhelm them with info to document their file and they will be able to pay you a proper settlement. Most of the time they just need the info so they can satisfy their superiors. Show them that Nada value is not correct. |
I'm not adressing this at any one person specifically, but....it's funny how when you want to buy a car, the NADA price is waaaayyyy too high (nobody pays that kind of money for a Ghia), but when you want insurance to pay what you have into it, NADA is undervaluing the Ghia. 
According to the NADA price guide for collectible cars, a 1972 Ghia has the following values:
Low Retail = $5,625
Average Retail = $9,500
High Retail = $16,000
I've never seen your car, nor do I know what you had into it, but IMO if you get anywhere close to $16k be happy. |
