[NoVa-Corvairs] Insurance for Classics

[Howard Ghee]

Hi Mike,
   
  Haggerty.  That's the one I had.  I had one prior to that, then they stopped doing classics, and I went to Haggerty. Yes, that is a requirement. My Corvair was at my parents' and it was not in a garage, but there was one at their place anyway, so you know, it is outside tonight because I am working on the Horizon....
   
  GEICO doesn't insure classics?  Hmmmm....maybe they were coupling with another company to offer it and that was what was in the mailing with my bill that time.  I may still have it. I'll see if I can find it.
   
  I believe that I paid around $100 per year to insure mine way back.  I had it from 1996-2000.  THere are the mileage limits too, I think I had 2K on my policy.  They say you cannot use it to go to work, shop, etc.  Then the fine print goes on to elaborate that it is understood that the car needs to be run occassionally.

  Howard,

Thanks for the input. Actually, I have GEICO for my other cars. I called them yesterday and they said they don't insure classics. They referred me to another company (I can't remember the name).

I did a little research on the internet this morning and found Hagerty Insurance, which I had at least heard of. I typed in my info and got a quote of $99/year. This seems pretty darn good but I saw in the fine print that the car has to be in a locked garage every night - a problem for me since I have no garage. I wonder if a garage is a common requirement for classic insurance.

Hi Mike,

I'll have to see who I used to use (since I am in between Corvairs still....) but I know GEICO now offers such insurance. Too bad they didn't when I needed it.

Hi All,

I'm planning to finally get my '61 tagged this week, but first I need to
arrange insurance. My current insurance company doesn't offer insurance
for classic cars.

Can anyone suggest a good company? I'm a big fan of saving money so
cheap is good. 

Thanks.

Mike
