He started off with I'm been doing this for 12 years.
I said I've been doing cars since I was twelve.
He said he has worked on vehicles.
I told him I've build cars for 30 years

This went on and on. This is not going to go well---for him.

Maybe I should just punch him out when I first meet him and be over with it.

What's the issue? You should have a check and a release by now...no?

No check. They want to inspect the T-bird. Because it is a "Classic". First of all, it isn't a Classic and I know what they are going to try and pull.

Well the asshole showed up. The first question he asked me was what I though the T-bird was worth. I told him I was offered $6,000 (which I was). But, I wouldn't sell it because it's been in my family since it was new. He just started to take pictures of the car-the whole car. I told him that there was no damage in the rear as he took pictures around the car. I told him this was an on going project. He asked me to let him take pictures of the mileage odometer, I open the door and he starts taking pictures of the interior. He didn't even take a picture of the odometer.
He was not even interested in the damage to the front.

Even a dumb shit like me can figure out what he was doing. They want pictures to try and total it or find a way for reduce the amount they will have to pay.

I blew it, I told the SOB don't even attempt to total my car for 2,000. You tell those Mother Fuckers at the office don't even think about. I won't be Fucked with. I think he was afraid for his life. He kept backing up and finally said in a little tiny voice I'm going to turn around and walk away.

I told him from the beginning that my Mother me gave that vehicle before she died and asked me to fix it up. I'm keeping that promise.

Now, I have to figure out what to do next. I'm ready to kill something. I'm not kidding here. I hate being Fucked with.


This is so Fucked up!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just keep the faith, Glenn, and don't take their shit. I had my insurance company try to lowball me when I wrecked my 68. I made them go to arbitration and wound up with $17K more than they offered me originally. It took awhile and it was a pain in the ass, but in the end I got a fair settlement.

I think they know they are in for a fight. Thanks Joe.

Glenn, just keep the gloves up and fight for this. Sometimes in your life you are presented with a situation where that is all you can do.

Well, you know how shy I am. Can you do this for me?








Advice on what to do about this is very welcome.

Yes, I'd be happy to have you as a fellow combatant.

I'm not sure where to go from here. Anyone know California law and my options I have to take on Farmers on this?


Alexis, maybe you have some thoughts?


I have not heard from Farmers on this.
