You're not far from me, I'm in Sevenoaks
JC will fix it for sure? He restored my Charger good and proper.
Was the roof collapsed as much as it appeared in the pics?

Glad you are Ok Pete. Metal can be straightened, people can't quite so easily!
When I saw the pictures I thought it looks bad but is hopefully still saveable.
The fact that roof panels are now available is a blessing.
Even if insurers say it is not economical, the classic insurers often allow retention of salvage, so that the owner can get it rebuilt or it can be sold as salvage for someone else to rebuild.
Minty and Derek have had cars rebuilt after what looked like the end.

I'm guessing you only had the car a couple of months. What a shame. Was it a minter or a rolling resto?
Either way, original Challengers are pricey, hope you get your money back

Yikes!
Will you get the agreed value for it Pete?

what a shame
mind I think the cost of parts will make the insurance company decide it is not worth repairing, but they will offer you to buy the car back if you can sort the repairs yourself.
