Quick update- Thanks for the concern- I have a little whiplash and some
headaches, and my nephew was traveling with me is alright.

I just got a call from Geico- they will give me $8669.74, and put a salvage
value on it of $1,000 if I want to keep it. Anyone have any dollar amounts
to throw at me in their experience? I also forgot to mention that it has
175,000 miles or so, and I just put in a manual trans that was supposed to
have been recently rebuilt by AA transaxle.

Thanks for the input so far,
Ed Duntz
