Sunny, glad your OK and sorry for your loss of green girl.

Sounds like he got what he wanted out of his insurance when his baby went up in flames. Of course he was dealing with his own carrier, not the other guys. As for an estimate to repair green girl, send me pictures of all four sides, as much from underneath as you can get, a picture looking into the trunk, and any other shot you think shows damage from the wreck.
I can produce you a visual damage estimate using Shoplink. That is one of the industry standard estimating softwares. My brother owns an autobody shop here in CT, and I was the shop manager for the last few years, probably wrote a thousand estimates in that time. I can certainly tell you that the biggest batch of scum to ever surface on this planet goes under the name -Insurance- The few decent people in that field are getting drummed out fast by the penny pinching profit weasels who want to pay nothing on a claim. They seem to have been getting their way with the laws too. Like cutting off the storage payments before they have settled the claim. Are you in a rental? If not, you should make them get you one, even if you don't drive it. Nothing speeds up an insurance company like having to pay for a rental car.
If neccesary, and it probably will be, go right over the head of the claims handler. Get their boss on the line and explain that this was not an old car, it was a classic car. Totally different thing. I saw an insurance company pay out $3000 to fix a 1970 AMC AMX which had gotten a very light tap in the back. First adjuster tried to total the vehicle, but the owner stuck it out and about 6 months later we eventually fixed it for him.
(about a grand of that bill was a rechromed bumper)
Good luck
