> I had Condon & Skelly for about 25 years. But when my collection got out of the bounds of my 8 car garage, I decided I needed to check with them on still insuring my collector cars that were not in a garage generally, but rather under a cover in my back yard or under a carport. Despite never having a claim with them in 25 years and despite all cars being in a secure area and covered (but not all in a strict garage - a carport won't even do), they flatly refused to even consider insuring them. I called probably every collector car insurance company I could find, and none would even consider me with one exception: Grundy Worldwide. They were willing to insure all of them based on the facts of my situation. I was actually surprised at how rude and matter of fact the person at Condon & Skelly was when I discussed this with them. They didn't care about my past record at all and wouldn't bend one inch. I still haven't had a claim, thankfully, but the treatment and consideration given to me by Grundy makes them my only choice.
