I have a 1977 280Z 2+2 - my first Zcar after wanting one for over 20 yrs
Bought from original owner with 160M
No body damage
Minor rust spots on panels under the driver and
passenger side doors
Original Interior in great shape
I purchased for $2500
and have been slowly restoring
New struts, brakes, tires, belts, cylinder, etc.

A lady then hits me 2 houses down from my house.
Damages the driver side front fender
Hood has a buckle
Front bumper took the impact
Fender under the bumper - ellipse shape is bent
Windsheild cracked from my room-mate hiting his head

Of course the insurance company does not value such a car.
Even though the other driver admitted fault, they do not want to fix it.
They want to give me only $1099
Outrageous!
And they compared the value to a 1979 ZX, which is not comparable!

How can I go about providing my lawyer with documetation of the actual worth of my car? Like who would buy it?
If you van not help me, will you direct me to a fellow Z-appreciator for help?
Thank You in advance for your valued advice
