Default Wrecked 57 220S Convertible

I have a "slight" problem with my newly restored 1957 220S Convertible that was destroyed on its way back from being worked on a couple weeks ago. It fell off a flatbed truck and is considered by my insurance to be totaled. I had put a lot of money into this car and am researching what value it should have had before it was destroyed. The only reasonable price I could find (for what I think its value should be) is in the January-April Cars That Matter Price Guide. Values are as follows: #4 $40,000; #3 $57,800; #2 $78,500; #1 $96,500. Anyone have any input on what they think the value should be? The insurance company is using NADA which is way out of line at $21,000 (Low) $40,000 (Average) and $52,600 (High). Cars of Particular Interest has my car (A solid #2) at $49,000, which is way low. Is Cars That Matter the only guide that gets these cars right? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
