Hagerty. They insure a bunch of stuff for me. All fun toys that I can drive whenever I want without worrying about restrictions. The only thing I watch out for is I have Historical plates on a few vehicles so I don't drive those everyday.

I would think any insurance company would insure any car for any type driving if you paid then enough money.

Well, if there was ever a claim, you were on the way to your favourite repair shop to get a tune up.

I use Hagerty and I don't worry. I don't commute in it, but then I don't commute at all!

I used to use American collector. I switched agents to lower all my insurance and the new agent carries Hagerty. I like them as they have one day options if you take your car to a race track as well

Not to hijack but, are you saying Hagerty will insure your car while actually running down the track?

I have Hagerty. $240 a year with an agreed value of $15k.
All you need is a garage and a DD.

A couple of years ago my ignition module died and they had a flatbed there in 45 minutes......free of charge...

Yes they do it for track days and possibly do it for drag racing. I paid for it at a track day 2 years ago
