Curious how you make more money off a totaled vehicle? Part it out?

I am a body shop, I've made way more off of storage and tear down than I would have on the repairs. I've been paid 3500 on cars I've never touched because the insurance companies adjuster insisted it wasn't totaled.

is the diff cracked or did the axle pop out creating oil to leak out?

No wonder all the bodyshop owners around here are rich. I don't know about Philly but collision repair business is quite lucrative in Los Angeles. With the low wage undocumented bodymen and the network of lawyers-bodyshops-chiropractors etc.
