Whether the insurance company agrees or not, you can still buy it back
from them after a total loss.  It will have a salvage title, but with a
40-year old car, does it really matter?  That's like marrying a 40-year
old babe with a disclaimer that some parts are not original.  Who cares?

We just don't want it to go to a dismantler.  (the car or the babe)

It is also important to start the repairs immediately.  If it sits very
long with all of that salt water on it, it's going to rust quickly.  The
ZF could be ruined in a couple of weeks.
