Need help with insurance claim/value on vehicle

PATRICKJOINER · #1 02-06-2010, 06:48 AM

Can anyone give me some direction/person to contact as to what a current value of a older Bronco would be? Friend of mine had his vehicle totaled while it was bieng transported, (no one was hurt) but his vehicle was totaled. Now the insurance company is wanting to offer much less than what the vehicle was worth. I think there are some expert apprasiars that will give a fair market value apprasial. Please send me a PM or e mail, [email protected] Thanks.

Do a search for the early bronco club in your area. Lonestar early bronco club is huge and in san antonio I believe. probably some closer. They should know someone that does it. I used to have two of them and there was all sorts of parts and assistance out there for them.

good luck!

PM sent.

Here's a map of appraisers in the association I belong to:

A note for any of you who get into fights with insurance companies. Their arguments and arbitration often will rely on appraisals backed by comparables, not just guides and opinions. Make sure your appraiser is comfortable with this kind of information, which will help you resolve your issues.
