hopefully you can get it covered, because if it was your neighbors uninsured/unregistered car and your tree you know they'd cover it.

Sorry to hear that.
Most home policies do not cover vehicles. Even ones you are working on inside your garage.
Note to all: Get a car policy even if you are doing a restore. I go with Hagerties but any of the classic car policies are fairly cheap for a year.

but i don't hold out too much hope for it. your homeowner's policy is just that coverage for your home and it's personal contents contained within the walls (unfortunately the garage walls isn't considered living space. sorry to hear the bad news.
