Good luck
It worked for me...
Back in the day, I had an old beater of a Pontiac Parisienne and wrote it off hitting two deer crossing the highway together.
No collision insurance on that turd, but got $1200 for it from State Farm under my comprehensive policy because it wasn't a vehicular collision.
Bought it back for $50 and parted it out for another $1900.

Good luck whichever way you choose to fix your car.
