Looking at the list looks like the car is totaled.

That is all easy work, you can save a bunch with "volunteer" labor and internet parts.

we plan on doing a buyback, most of these parts i found cheaper then using a dealer like they did.

i didnt see on the report anywhere that the frame was bent etc, so that is a good sign.

From your original pics, I would be considering having the sub frame checked. That looks like a Hard hit.

Well, i literally yelled at their adjuster (through email) also let him know we swapped motors etc. They came back with higher amount for car and a buy back of 300.00. So now we are looking at 3xxx.xx plus car back. Also got them started working on medical and pain and suffering...

So.... will SS parts swap over to an LS, the bumper i found info on. but like fenders, radiator, seat belts, stuff like that? Not electrical or or anything, but the physical parts.

Oh yeah, the friend with Tech 2, said he no longer has it, when ford got broken into at beginning of the year and they stole alot of stuff, his was included in that. So ill be sending that part to Chevy and having it reprogrammed.

seat belts must be manufactured for the car they are installed in. The SS SRS system is a little different.
radiator....check part numbers
all body parts are the same ex. the grill and bumper/cover.

My experience is they will give you $2000 to avoid further letter writing. You might want a lawyer if you don't like their offer, they are always lower before lawyers are involved.

I didn't like the $300 offer on a Karmann-Ghia and ended up with $5000 pain. I had a real whiplash though, hurt like heck for a long time.
