well my commodore is dead or very close to it, hit a very large rock tonight, ran straight over the top. from what i can see in the dark with a torch (bottom of extractors/cat and mid section of zorst-large holes/crumpled and crushed cat, missed sump but hit Kframe, tailshaft, diff is whining-with other noises, massive vibration throughout whole car/steering pulling to left and hit torque converter/damaged box- doing stupid things/hunting/noises etc) NOT HAPPY JAN, was not there going to destination and within 15mins some cu*t put it in the middle of the lane right on the apex of a corner. lucky it was only 50ks im guessing it could be a wright off(unless repairable) since its insured for $9500 and im guessing theres (atleast) $3000 damage

70% is usually the cut off point for an ecomic write off.. so your 3k is no where near the end of the VT

new diff assembly = $1500 front end suspension damage = $1k+ new exhaust system = $1000 getting close to being written off ecconomicaly. If its damaged the rails or much of the substructure they may structuraly write it off.
