depends on how old you are and how much you want to drive your car, when i was looking for insurance for my 69' i wasnt eligible for any of the classic car insurance plans, most of them have an age requirement of 25+ years old and most of them dont want you to drive the car over 3000 miles per year, after reading a bit they dont limit your mileage now but they did when i was looking

Whats the fun of it if you don't drive the sucker!3000 miles my ARSE!!! Hate the trailer queens, mustangs are for driving not riding on trailers!! (ANGRY TYPING GUY!!) Well I don't really know much about classic insurrance but what I was gonna do is have my car appraised and then get coverage under the appraisel value? I am not quite done though... but when are you ever done?

When I bought the Stang I started by calling my normal insurance agent.
Insured the Stang with Safeco and it only cost about an extra $200 / year. Having it on the same policy as my other cars and with the same insurance company as my homeowners really helped.
On the one policy we have my '07 Explorer, the wife's PT Cruiser GT and the Stang. BTW, they realize I only drive it on weekends and maybe to work once in a while on Friday but I don't know if that was a "requirement" of the policy or not.
i have mine insured through progressive and even with it being insured along with my other vehicles its well over 200 a month besides what i already pay for the others

I was quoted with hargery and Im 19, theyre quote program just doesnt have the "if then" set up right. When you actually try and get the policy they will reject you.

i,m with shelter and covered @30,000 value it's like $32 a month but i've been with them for over 15 years.helps to know your insurance guy i'd guess he said drive it as much as i wanted
My dads thinking of selling it =/ He said what if they steal it. He said If were insurenced by a normal company (allstate, AAA, etc etc) that they wont give us as much money as the car is worth.
that sucks i feel for ya, hope you can finds somthing that works, i dont know what i would do if someone tried to take my stang from me (most likely assault charges filed)

Does anyone know of a classic car insurance plan that does agreed value (so you're given what you agree the car is worth) and does NOT require it be garage kept? I spent a few hours doing this yesterday and I found fair rates and companies that dont have mileage limitations however every single company required it be garage kept. No garage so I'm in between a rock and a hard spot. Any luck out there?
