RE: [Chrysler300] Collector car insurance

["Rich Barber" <c300@xxxxxxx>]

This subject comes up about every six months.  What I have learned is that
your usage of your collector car will have an impact on who can and will
insure you.  If you use your car mostly traveling to shows and recreational
tours a Hagerty policy will likely be a good choice.  My agent asked for a
few pictures to document condition and accepted an agreed-to value on the
high end of the car's probable value.  I'm covered for shows, tours, travel
to repair shops, recreational use and an occasional domestic run.  I'm
retired, but would not hesitate to commute in the car on rare occasions when
our grocery getter was out of commission.

It is a fairly consistent story that most conventional insurers are clueless
and disinterested in insuring collector cars (or RV's for that matter).

Subject: [Chrysler300] Collector car insurance

Here we go again...Hi fellow 300ers, I need to revamp my auto insurance as I
plan to retire in 8 months.  I have always had State Farm insurance thinking
I was completely protected on my vintage cars but now I need to look at
other Insurance companys in comparison.  My State Farm agent seems
unknowledgeable about exactly what they are covering on my old cars and I
need to know more and hopefully pay less.....I didn't pay much attention to
this discussion previously thinking I had it handled.  Any suggestions or
recommendations can be sent to me personally or to the listserver as I
suppose there are always those interested in this topic.  Also any horror
storys pertaining to this insurance might be helpful to all of us.   Thanks
Rusty Roe in Hermiston Oregon....57C, 61 Newport, 36 Dodge, 78 AMC, and
other non-mopar collector cars.
