Would it make sense to you to take the insurance money and put it towards a newer car that doesn't have an IMSB (2009 or newer), or....a pre-2009 car that has had the IMSB already replaced? Just think of the peace of mind you'd have, and just think of the work you'd save!
I've made the same argument. He's quite (perhaps overly) attached. But if insurance can/will repair without totalling theres no need for any heroic effort. However, I'm not familiar with IMSB failure? Please elaborate?
