One of the oldest and most humane methods is to just put a few
mothballs (camphor) under the car. It will keep EVERYTHING away
including cats, bugs, squirrels, mice, etc. Spread them out under the
car and keep the doors and windows closed.

When I had my '38 Buick schnoz wiped out several years ago, the tow truck 
driver asked where I wanted it droped off.  I told him take it home (4 
blocks away). No problem.      Drive Stainless  Robert  VIN 6924

As a follow up question to this subject, does anyone know why cars
are towed to the impound yard after an accident? Is this a
requirement, or simply a convenience for the parties involved?

The reason I ask is because if I were to be involved in a collision,
I would want to have first crack at recording damage to my car for
writing my own estimate, to challenge an insurance underwriter. So I
would prefer to have the car returned to my home. This is especially
important in Nevada, because if a vehicle's repair costs exceed 65%
or more of it's stated/agreed value (excluding paint,and structural
integrity), the car MUST be totalled by law, and CANNOT be re-
registered!

On the flip side, rather than having an insurance adjuster come out
to estimate costs on a car, is it possible to record damage, perform
the repairs myself (or by a licensed facility), and simply submit
reciepts to an insurance company when I file a claim with them?

I know these are questions that my insurance company *should* know
the answers to, but I wanted to get a general consensus from the
group here for a comparison.

Subject: Shifter boot bracket?

Does anyone have a pic of the shift boot bracket that holds the boot to the
console?  I'm going to need a custom boot but not sure exactly how to mount
it to the console.


Thanks!
