The insurance guy from State Farm (insuring the other driver) showed up at my office shortly after eight this morning to look over my vehicle. He took pictures of just about everything, including the engine! He too is sure the car is totaled. He says the company should have a good sense of the numbers by late this afternoon or tomorrow ("so call then," he says, "or best case, they call you").
I handed him a folder with photocopies of the Kelly Blue Book wholesale/retail value including all the options the car has (THANK YOU![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Hey,shadopanther, want a 1989 Corolla full size rim and spare? I'll never use it, and the insurance company gets only the donut that came with the car.
He says they probably won't take the car away until I am ready. I strongly suspect there is a little more to it than that; after all, as soon as they've run the numbers, I'm putting miles on THEIR car. But I admit I'm glad of the respite. Both last weekend and this weekend I'm out of town, making a car purchase a little tougher.
