Am I in the wrong area for insurance?

I have an '82, love American Express insurance on my other vehicles and house, but they won't do full coverage for 20+ year old cars.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

There are quite a few threads scattered over the pages in this forum that discuss the insurance topic. Just keep browsing back through the pages to find them. You could use the 'Search' function to find some of them, but keep in mind that it only searches back 90 days so it may miss some of the older threads.

Insurance for your 82. Hagerty's. www.hagerty.com Quick and easy, online application. Very professional on phone. They specialize in collector cars, have great programs.
The premiums are the best I have found. |saluteflag| |cool|

thanks guy's, I'll look around. Thanks Boatman, called 'em, sounds great, all the right kinds of clauses and lack of bad clauses. $345 per year, just wish they had a deductible to bring it down.

Try Haggertys Insurance. I have my 1980 insured through them and I think it is running $145 a year for full coverage.

I am with State Farm and they have stated value/replacement cost insurance for.

It only costs me $221.00 per year.

The cost may also depend on how you register the vehicle. Antique, Classic, Historic etc.. The local DMV will tell u what qualifies for what category.

That is most interesting. I've insured all our vehicles with Met Life for years and when I added "The Toy" there was no mention of C&S. Makes me wonder how complete my coverage has been for the past three years.

I just spoke with a C&S representative and while the rate is very reasonable they do have a 2,500 mile limit on their policy. They would extend the mileage for a given year on a per case basis, but you first have to be covered by them for a couple of years before being eligible for that excemption. I don't think I could handle that low a mileage limitation, when the sun is shining I want to be driving...!!!
