as for the car, try rudy feeg auto repair for the claim.
I hope you aren't suggesting the car can be fixed?  

The car is a gonner.  The only thing left is to determine it's value.
no doubt, it's farked :(
hopefully ICBC won't look to close at the floor and heater channels and give you a fair buck for it

I'm sure you could find a few guys to \"STORE\" your motor while you look for a new beetle to put it in.

I wouldent even talk to the adjusters their job is to bend you over with \"No Vasiline\". Ive been on the short end of the ICBC deal a few times over...my advise is find the right lawyer and aim hi,cause they will argue it down to pennies....Thats just my slanted veiw.
Sorry bout your ride ...Wish you the best with your recovery and the insurance game

when my first beetle blew up i walked into the adjusters office with 150 sheets of paper showing my cars worth. i got them to pay me 5000 for a 73 super beetle, you just have to intimidate them and let them know that you know EVERYTHING about your car and arent going to take pennies for it

I wish you the very best ...mabey ive just had bad luck with adjusters.Problem i usually faced is that i have to work to survive and they interperate that as \"good enough to work,cant be in that much pain\".As for the car,I keep every receipt i have ever spent in a file. They love to prorate value of that ...even though i have spent alot of time searching out decent deals in putting things together...knowing people that help you,those values due to your hard work are worth nothing.You may consider a cash settlement and negotiate keeping the written off car, keep all your good parts and start with a good shell..If you have the place and the ability to rebuild.

Amishrabbi,

Firstly, I hope you get better, you work out your claim and find a new beetle. Secondly, I would stop posting comments on any public forum until your claim is settled. You never know ICBC may use them against you.

My .02 cents.

Take care.
