Ok Guys here's my problem:
I am 23 & have 2 turbo Buicks. An have an 87 GN and a
86 T-Type which I am still working on to be my daily driver.
I want to insure my GN with an agreed value, etc... I have researched allot of companies, Hagerty, Grundy, Cauldon & skelly, etc...
My problems are that allot of companies require you to be 25 years old, and or the car has to be 25 years old.
If the car is not 25 years old its to new But they will insure a 2000 plymouth prowler, viper, ferrari. W.T.F.? I tried to tell these people that it’s an 87 GN its over 15 years old and I can get classic tags for it so its a classic, right? 87 was the last year of rear wheel drive, they only made 20,000 of them that year they are rare to find in MINT condition and they talk to you or look at you like your nuts for wanting to insure an 87 Buick, ITS TOO NEW THEY SAY, TOO NEW?
You have got to be freaking kidding me too new!
What about that 2000 plymouth prowler, viper, ferrari's you cover? The answer I get is that they are collectibles, how is a 2000 anything a collectable especially a P.O.S. MOPAR Prowler?
I just do not get it at all, unless there is something I am missing. I am just confused as to what to do here. Just because I am not 25 they will not insure the car for what its worth? I got allot of $ tied up in my GN alone I would like to insure it for what its worth.
So what do I have to do put the car on jack stands, put a cover on it and wait until I am 25 so I can really enjoy it?
Every time I take this thing anywhere its like there is a bull’s-eye painted on it. There's so many idiots out there on the road I am afraid of getting hit in it and taking a total loss, my regular insurance is not going to give me squat for it if something happens.
Too much time (3 years +) & money tied up in it to take the risk, anymore. Look at the pics....
Does anyone have any advice or know of a reputable collectable car insurance company that I have maybe overlooked that will insure a 23 year old that has 5 years driving experience with a clean record?
Thanks any help you guy's can give me..............Ed
