jagman Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 I have my runners insured through State Farm and my antiques on an antique policy. State Farm insures my 70 International dump truck and my 86 720 without problems but I have the property insured with them too. Quote Link to comment
datsunrides Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 I have Haggerty. Yes, you need to have a minimum agreed value, 3500 IIRC, but it’s pretty inexpensive for full coverage. Quote Link to comment

Depends on when you wanna drive it.. Are you trying to register as a classic/antique? Some companies put restrictions on when and how much you can drive it if it's an antique..... I just put my 521 on the road last year, just added it to my existing car policy, I drive it when ever I want..... Quote Link to comment

NVFireFighter Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Hagerty......it's pretty cheap for full coverage but, you may need to garage it or keep it in a more secure area than the driveway. Quote Link to comment
Nightsfire Posted December 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 most insurance i look at goes back to 81 and thats it and with the vin being the way it is makes it hard, to get quotes Quote Link to comment
Ben_upde Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Geico. I had to call them though. Just added it as a regular vehicle. Costs like $100 for 6 months of liability. I’ll up it to full coverage after winter. Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 I have my 521 work truck insured as a business truck thru Amica which boosts the premium, and it is a business truck, my 521 kingcab is thru them also because I want to drive it anytime I want to drive it. The classics I have that are licensed/plated as classics and are insured thru Hagerty, the rest are insured via my license to drive as my license is insured, but that is not full coverage and there are a lot of vehicles out there that cost way more than I am covered for, now that I think about it I only have my 520 now that is covered by that insurance, and it would be cheaper to insure it thru Amica. It all depends on how often and when you want to drive it, if it is a daily driver and your regular insurance company will not insure it, time to look for another insurance company.

thisismatt Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Geico. I have shopped around and can't find anything cheaper. Hagarty sucks if you want to use your truck as a......truck. Quote Link to comment
FrankRizzo Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 I had Hagerty but just let it expire. I have AAA on the house and other cars, but they sent me a note saying the could not meet the coverage levels on the house and cars because the 620 was insured by someone else. I ended up putting it back on the AAA policy. Quote Link to comment
difrangia Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 I don't know much about the premiums, coverage, claims pay-outs, etc. of the various insurance companies, but their stupid damn commercials on the tube sure as hell rub me the wrong way. Excepting, maybe, Hagerty. We also use State Farm for the house and toys. Quote Link to comment

Farmer Posted December 19, 2018 Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 Allstate. Can put it on suspension when not driving it Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted December 19, 2018 Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 I just got a Hagerty policy for my Land Rover. The coverage is great and it costs only $250 a year. My other "classics" are insured through my regular Farmers agent. I used to build his racing engines for his 240Z so maybe that's got something to do with it. Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted December 19, 2018 Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 I have basic Liability on my Drivers License. I have 3 vehicles but not insured if somebody drives as these cars are not worth much 1 Quote Link to comment

Utahskier Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 American family insurance. My local agent is great Quote Link to comment
paradime Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 Bottom line, one insurance Co is not the same throoout the country. Different states have different laws, and cost of coverage varies depending on many factors like urban, rural, flood plate, high theft area, etc. In my experien, a bit of local research can save you serious $. We used to carry AAA for home n cars, but after dealing with them for a claim on water damage in our kitchen, It was a shock what a shit sack operation they really are. Their contractor lowballed the bid by at least $10k and then they tried to get me to sign a contract making me responsible for any cost overruns including repairing any of their work that didn't pass inspection. When I told them to stick their offer where the sun don't shine, AAA wouldn't accept my contractor's bit. Those asholes left my family without a kitchen for 9 months thinking they could just wait me out until I caved. It wasn't until I filed a case with the Cal Insurance Commission that they paid the difference between their contractor and mine. I did the kitchen remodel myself and switched to Farmers for the house. On a bunch of online reviews they had the best record for positive claim resolutions. Then when we had to get my 17 yr old son covered and they quoted $3,500 a year for him to drive a 2001 MDX to work. After almost 30 yrs with them, we jumped to farmers who gave us the same coverage for under $1,500. 1 Quote Link to comment
