Car got crunched; insurance company wants to say it's a total loss?

Hey, maybe Owlie can go lift a door off a car somewhere

Yeah, like off my brother's Honda Civic, which isn't running and is available for cannibalization.

I'd say you're lucky it's a Civic, because there are thousands in that age range still on the road, and you'll probably be able to find a door at a salvage yard.

Yup, and it's even the most popular color for these cars, too: silver. I think getting a replacement door, even without my bro's largesse, would not be hard for this car.

Liability for the accident has not (to my knowledge) been determined yet, but I am pretty sure the other driver will be found to be at fault.
