Lost rear wheel while on freeway

[MSD]

I have a license to bid. It's not active for auction yet. But my guess is it will go for way more than I'm willing to bid.

what's your guess for what it goes for? Listed value at 53k isnt going to help.

Got the body shop estimate for my lost wheel side damage 12000 for only body repair. They are going to replace the whole left side panel, but I have to have SMB first remove the interior and then​ reinstall after body shop work. Waiting to get quote from SMB for that, but they didn't seem to want to do the work.

Folks, my title should be arriving at the insurance company sometime today (via next day UPS). I imagine it will take them a short time for internal process before bidding is opened. But its getting closer.

I haven't received my check back from insurance. I'll post a full writeup of how the process has gone once that clears.

I have a sticker on my windshield that says to torque at 25, 50, 100 and 200 after a service and do it around those numbers.

My guess based on two others in this condition i looked at is $4-6k (one went for $3800, the other & $5800) it's body swap for sure and transfer everything over) Thing to keep in mind is once van is redone it will be worth 60% less with a salvage title. But I have a feeling you want the top for you rig & the sell of the rest. [emoji106]

Top, front seats and nerf bars. I would pay 4k just for that! its the hassle of the rest of it that poses the problem. Any idea how they got it there with only 3 wheels?

Roll-back tow truck most likely. Maybe a Landoll trailer. Either way, it'll need a ride back to where its going, and the auction yards typically require a commercial carrier to haul it off. It's not normally a Bring-A-Trailer situation.

That said, most tow companies will do a pick-up and load-transfer another trailer, for a modest fee.

They offered to let me figure out the tow situation but I let them call a local yard. In this photo you can see it on the flatbed. Whinching it up into the bed was a pain cause it wanted to ride up the concrete wall. That is how the front wheel got broke? (See images)
