depends ont h damage on the car.. if its almost tye same as the value of the car they will auction it off at a insurance auction and ull get the blue book value for it. if the damage is low they will probably just fix it. if they total it let them and buy it back from them cheap and fix it or part it out. u can ake some money from that

They probably won't be giving you anywhere near what they paid you the first time.

as ive said so many times. "if you want the best, most reliable answer go to the source" i.e. ask the insurance company.

if a car has a salvage title from an accident the first time... and he wrecked it again and they total it i wouldnt wanna try and work on/ drive that car. sounds like an alignment mess and a safety hazard.

the term totalled translated to the damage is total to, or as much as the value of the car. while the damage could be purely cosmetic in some cases. i dont see a point in trashing a good car for a hood, bumper, fenders and paint as an example.

i was just using being in 2 wrecks as an example... not what actually happened in this case. if the car still has good parts id strip it and use the money from the insurance to buy a car to put those parts on... or sell them.
