Dear Jeff,
I thought that perhaps you might reply and I thought
that you would have a pretty good idea about what is going on with these
flood damaged sports cars. I am glad that you're OK.
Warmest regards, Chuck Engles

Chuck,
This car may not be for sale in Louisiana though loopholes are
everywhere.
Louisiana law states this and even more since this is a disaster area.
Basically when the insurance totaled paid off and flooded car is free of
its owner,
it must be scrapped.
Very sad to leave from after I spent weekend transporting people from
flood waters to going to
Monterey week and then back to this. I have one customer who lost 12
hot rods. I was lucky!
Most dealers do not have used cars to sell and rent cars are coming in
from five states away!
Most did not have insurance because this never should ave happened at
all!
Two of my mechanics have been paid $22,000.each by FEMA within three
days so far for the three feet
of water in their homes.
I felt wrong, guilty, confused, bad and sad leaving the next day but
with my medical condition I could not
go in butt deepwater full of feces, garbage and diesel/ gasoline fuels
floating on top to help my friends.
Enjoyed seeing and talking with you deTomaso guys and gals out in the
dry world.
Quack quack.

As of Wednesday, State Farm -- just one of the insurers that serves car
owners in the area --
had received almost 18,000 auto claims related to flooding.
That number was more than double the number of homeowner claims the
company had received, spokesman
Roszell Gadsen said.
With such a large volume, towing companies have been stretched to the
limit.
“We’ve been working around the clock,” said Ronnie Stewart,
of Stewart’s Towing in Livingston Parish.
“It’s been hectic and crazy,” Stewart said. He estimated that his
company, a small one with four trucks,
had towed more than 300 cars since the waters receded.
There were still plenty more left to be towed.
“We probably haven’t put a dent in all the cars that’s flooded,” he
said.
In East Baton Rouge Parish, the woman who answered the phone at
Roadrunner Towing said there were
no words to describe how busy it had been. Roadrunner, which has
contracts with several local police
agencies, had towed more than 700 vehicles by midweek.
Most of the cars are being taken to private towers' yards or large auto
salvage yards like Insurance Auto
Auctions in Livingston or Copart in Greenwell Springs.
Jeanene O’Brien, of Insurance Auto Auctions, said the company is
handling “thousands of cars per day.”
A car’s trip to one of these yards will be the first leg of its journey
to the compactor or the junkyard.
When a flood-damaged car arrives at Insurance Auto Auctions’ yard in
Livingston,
for example, the vehicle identification number is registered with both
the
National Insurance Crime Bureau and the National Motor Vehicle Title
Information System.

The Louisiana Department of Insurance has issued a reminder to insurance
companies regarding the Certificate of Destruction title requirements
for flooded vehicles.
<http://www.insurancejournal.com/news/southcentral/2016/08/18/423823.htm/?comments>
The department issued the bulletin following the federal declaration of
disaster due to the recent massive flooding in Southeast Louisiana

<http://www.insurancejournal.com/news/southcentral/2016/08/17/423561.htm>
A Certificate of Destruction is a type of title for water damaged
vehicle that has been declared a total loss.
The department said that when, as a result of an insurance settlement, a
motor vehicle is determined to be a total loss due to water damage,
Louisiana law requires the insurance company acquiring ownership of the
vehicle to send the certificate of title to the Office of Motor Vehicles
along with an application for a Certificate of Destruction.
The certificate and application must be sent to the OMV within 30 days
from the settlement of the claim.

Dear Forum,
An insurance adjustor friend of a Pantera friend
told
him that this Pantera is flooded and has been totaled and is
available
with a salvage title in Baton Rouge.
It appears to be pretty stock. One picture I did
not
include shows the tub with a space saver spare plus the red inflator.
The pictures seem to show a high water mark above the window sills.
It seems that this car is *supposed* to be available
for online auction through: [1]www.copart.com I have tried
searching for it three times and can't find it on their site although
there are lots of flood damaged and other cars there, i.e. Ferraris
and
Maseratis, etc, in small numbers.
Supposedly the value on the car was said to be
"$10,000". However, all the cars on the site are up for bid with a
few "drivers" also available for a "buy it now" price. Finally, it
seems that you have to register and pay a fee before you can bid.
However, if you're keen for a "deal", then perhaps
calling the Baton Rouge Copart salvage yard might be advantageous.
Warmest regards, Chuck Engles

Dear Forum,
An insurance adjustor friend of a Pantera friend
told
him that this Pantera is flooded and has been totaled and is
available
with a salvage title in Baton Rouge.
It appears to be pretty stock. One picture I did
not
include shows the tub with a space saver spare plus the red inflator.
The pictures seem to show a high water mark above the window sills.
It seems that this car is *supposed* to be available
for online auction through: [1]www.copart.com I have tried
searching for it three times and can't find it on their site although
there are lots of flood damaged and other cars there, i.e. Ferraris
and
Maseratis, etc, in small numbers.
Supposedly the value on the car was said to be
"$10,000". However, all the cars on the site are up for bid with a
few "drivers" also available for a "buy it now" price. Finally, it
seems that you have to register and pay a fee before you can bid.
However, if you're keen for a "deal", then perhaps
calling the Baton Rouge Copart salvage yard might be advantageous.
Warmest regards, Chuck Engles
