So what does a person do whose car get wrecked and they have alot of custom stuff in it that is not standard 914 stuff? For example Iamchappys 3.6 turbo car? Clearly the insurance payout on a mint condition standard 914 would not cover the custom bodywork, engine, 5 lug conversion, big brakes etc. The other person ins company does not see all this custom stuff, just a 35 year old perhaps well maintained vehicle. Could you end up swapping all the original 914 stuff back onto the car before the ins company took the car or would that be considered fraud? Insure for replacement cost rather then damages. that way, you and your insurance company know how much you will get paid if they total the vehicle. Then the insurance co's can go head to head about the cost. 914 value 10k (apprasial) Replacment costs 20-25k insure for 25k. it will cost more, but, you will get your $$ out of it if something happens. |
