   About 3 weeks ago my 240z was hit square in the rear end. The first
thing the adjuster said, after seeing it, was, "we are going to total it".
I laughed, and after 20 minuite or so of ignoring the damage and telling
him about all the special things I have done to the car, and explaining
to him that the car can not be replaced he decided to start writing an
estament. I have not heard from him. I explained to him that I don't
want money. I want this car. Find another 240z and change all the parts
over or fix this one. Try this approch.
