my mom made those also Eleanor.. either served like crepes or like pancakes w/syrup

her crapes had various fillings from apples sauce to carmelized pears... powder sugar sprinkle & sometimes a drizzle of brandy..

Well.....the verdict on my old car and the deer hit is in.

Not surprisingly, it was a total loss.

I had hoped that they would give me perhaps $1300 or so, or maybe $1000 and allow me to keep the car, and I would try and get it fixed.

BUT....


They are NOT going to give me $1000, or even $2000...But over $2300... for a 1988 Riviera!! AND...allow me to keep the car!!! That is over 3 TIMES what I paid for it in November!!

In my WILDEST imaginations, I would have NEVER thought that old car could be worth anywhere near that much!! That is OVER 3 TIMES what I paid for it!!

So...now.. I am unsure what I am going to do. I would like to get the car fixed...but I WILL NOT accept a "patchwork car", where the door and fender are different colors than the rest of the car. One way or another--I have to keep it a bit longer, I STILL have not gotten my van back--they are having some kind of trouble with the tranny they put in.

In the meantime--if another Riv or even a trofeo comes along, at a decent price with the touch screen and in decent shape and miles and is not too far away--I will heavily consider getting it!!
