[DeTomaso] 2511 and State Farm

Thu Jun 9 07:38:21 EDT 2016

Larry,

I¹m sincerely very happy for you and 2511.  But you¹re the lucky one.  My
sister married a State Farm agent in the 80¹s so our family moved all of our
insurance to State Farm.  That included four houses/households, can¹t
remember how many cars, a boat, and a bunch of life policies and umbrellas.
After paying relatively high premiums (no tickets) for seven years and never
making a single claim for anything, I got a notice saying they would not
renew the policy on my Pantera, explaining only that they wouldn¹t insure
Panteras anymore.  That was obviously not true, and despite the family
connection and all the business, and no claims, sure as heck they dropped
it.  State Farm was not my good neighbor.  Fortunately, I was in the Air
Force Reserve and simply moved everything to USAA (and American Collectors
who is affiliated with USAA).  My premiums dropped by more than half.  In
the end you and I had vastly different but good experiences.  I¹ll just
never understand what happenedŠ

   Yes Tom, many months have passed. The accident was last August on the
   way to Monterey. It took quite a while for me to find and decide on
   selecting Denny Finn to do the repairs. 2511 went up to Denny in
   February. Locating all the needed repair pieces was not an easy task.
   Denny placed 2511 on his frame machine to determine the extent of
   damage and to get an estimate on time needed to pull things back as
   much as possible. He has already drilled out hundreds of spot welds on
   the front clip I located and those components are ready to be
   transferred to 2511. We spent many weeks fine-tuning the estimate in
   hopes that we would not cross the somewhat invisible line leading to a
   total loss. The estimate was submitted last Tuesday.
   So the delay has come from me. State Farm stepped up quite quickly and
   I'm once again reminded why I continue to choose them to provide all of
   my insurance needs.
   When the shit hits the fan and the performance of your insurance
   company is put to the test, I've learned through the years that
   ..."like a good neighbor, State Farm is there."

   Good news indeed!  Did it really take this long to resolve?  Seems you
   posted your accident pictures several months ago.

   All,
   I am happy to share some good news. Something we could use more of
   these days.
   Today I was informed the estimate submitted by Denny Finn for the
   repairs to 2511 has been accepted by State Farm.
   This means I have avoided a total loss declaration for 2511 and repairs
   can begin in the very near future.
   Denny assures me that the repairs will be finished before the end of
   this year.
   I am one very happy guy tonight. :-)
