It sure sounds like you're attached to this car. It also sounds like your car took a pretty good hit. Are you sure it can be made straight again? My first 240 was a salvage title, having already been "folded and unfolded" in the LF corner. That tire always wore funny...

Unfortunately it's a lot harder to get a salvage title in PA than it used to be. If the car is totaled by the insurance company but you still want to keep it you will likely have to walk away without getting paid. Or buy it back and part it out for your next 240. Remember the "GL" isn't much more than a badge. Most options, besides the power windows, can be simply swapped right?

Good luck with it.
