Swift Truck Lines Loss Date : 10/2/97 Dear Ms. Matsey: FIRST AND CLOSING REPORT Pursuant to our previous phone conversation, I inspected the vehicle at Truck Parts & Equipment in Sparks, Nevada. This is the Peterbilt dealer for this area. They do not work on trailers. I did verify the V.I.N. number and the damages. The Insured has an estimate from Utility Trailer Sales of. Central California, Inc. for $11,177.22. I did review this estimate and it is accurate and in-line with the damages to the Insured's trailer. The damages are fairly extensive. I would recommend settling with the Insured based on these estimates less any appropriate deductible. If any further assistance is needed, please advise. Thank you for this assign- ment.
