[Healeys] Louvers?

[I Erbs]

When I started the restoration of the body on my car, I upped the insured
value to $45.000 with Hagerty. I knew of situations where body shops shut
down and cars were lost. It actually happend with my car, but it was after
I got mine back. I had to track down the front bumper valence. So, if you
have insurance, file a claim for the lost parts, plus a police report for
the theft. I have recently upped my coverage to $55k
