'04 Totaled - Update
Well, the insurance offer is in, 26gs for the car and 3gs for my mods. 7gs salvage value. Looks like I will take 29gs and walk away.
Seems so strange not to have a vette in the garage after owning a C4 and then a C5 for 15 yrs.
Still not sure what I am going to do to get another.
Thanks to you guys for your comments and suggestions on my original post. A big thanks to my friend John Page of 21st Cent MC here in Dallas whose words of wisdom were invaluable. So many alternatives to consider!
Best regards,
DK

Bummer, sorry to hear about the Vette. 
What's the deal with your insurance? I didn't realize they would pay out for mods. Did you have an agreed value policy or was it a regular insurance carrier? What amount did you have in mods total compared to what they paid out?
