I glanced through my progressive policy and it goes through the lists of modifications that would make your coverage null and void. My vehicle breaks most every rule.

So I am looking for companies that will cover me. My agent couldn't help me out initially. Then I found Hagerty. I haven't been "approved" yet, which makes me kind of nervious since they were asking me if I drive the car to work and if the car is parked in a private garage while at work etc. No my car doesn't sit in a private inclosed garage while at work are you kidding me? They gave me what I felt was a very good quote, $509 / year for 15k vehicle coverage with 250k Single Limit (Bodily Injury & Property Damage). $426 with lesser coverage. But like I said, I haven't been approved yet. And they want pictures of the interior, which is torn apart at the moment.

Any other companies that offer coverage for modified vehicles? Google directs me to some companies in the UK and Au which seems sketchy.

I have "STP" coverage from Heacockclassics.com

storage, transit & paddock coverage. No street time.

$15k coverage is $251/yr

I'm required to not have the car tagged.

I just wanted something that would cover theft...

I had Hagerty for about 2 years before that... they dropped me because I was under 30. (wtf?) My rates were similar to yours, but, I had an agreed value of $25k.

I had to sign a waiver stating that I wouldn't race the car, and that I knew that I wasn't covered at any race events.. racing or not. They asked for a LOT of pictures. I think I ended up sending about 30.

Thats when I was driving the car to and from my track events.

Maybe I should call them??? I filled out an online Ap that said it no one under 30 (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/gr_confused.gif)

Grundy denied me since I drive to work 2x/ mo.

I need pics of my interior so that Hagerty can finally deny me... hopefully not...

Getting my new driveshaft Monday so I'll be able to (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/gr_driving3.gif) if I get insurance.

Rejected since I drive to work 2x/ mo.

I called Hagerty and said, ok, I won’t drive to work will you accept me now?

Nope. Wait 6 months to a year and try again.

Please?

No.

I’m trying Grundy again. This time I know the right answers. FYI the correct answer to the “do you drive the vehicle to work” question is NO. NEVER! NOT EVEN ONCE!

If not I go back to Progressive and hope nothing happens, which in my mind kinda defeats the purpose of having insurance.

Wow, 2x per month to work and they rejected you? That's insane! Thanks for the tip, I think I might go through Grundy here soon. One of the guys from the local F-body club is getting his 87' GN insured with them for like $250/year, not bad!
