Hello anyone who’s following my wrecked camino’s updates! First off, the car pictured is the donor car we picked up! my elky is off to the right. Anywho, I wanted to make a little update after hearing back from insurance.

Insurance wrote me a check for $20k and i am going to put that all right back into my car! That’s about it. I’m repainting the whole car and want to make her look brand new. I should have my baby back mid june, so i’ll update yall then, or before if I have any more major updates.

Thank you all!

Hello everyone! I posted about a month ago in regards to my wrecked 87 el camino ss, and wanted to provide a quick update!

I tore off all of the broken parts, and it turns out not near as much was messed up as I expected. If I were to buy all the parts new it would only come out to about $2200. The only “engine components” that were broken was my radiator and ac condenser.

However, I managed to find and secure a front clip with a cowl hood for $800!

The cops could never find the person who pulled out in front of me (go figure), but I’m currently working with insurance, and they’re classifying the wreck as a no fault incident.

However, insurance won’t write me a check, so I took the car to a friends shop, and he’s going to do all of the labor for a whole lot cheaper than anywhere else, so hopefully I can walk away with a few dollars in my pocket.

That’s all I have for now! Thank you all for the comments and advice, I will update yall when I know more!
