Re: Insurance? (Hippiehead025)
If you were in the military, go with USAA. My father was in the Air Force which made me eligible. I pay about $100 a month for my 93 Vette with:
$50k/$100k coverage, $250 deduct, rental, towing, driving 24,000 miles per year. Geico was around $275 per month for the same coverage.

If you Vette is 15 years old or older....you can pick up show vehicle insurance for a song. But you can not use it as a daily driver and you must own a daily driver and show proof of Insurance on it. I pay only $240 per year for my policy in Canada, but I know you can get the same in the USA. Good luck.

My insurance is under my Dad's name; he's 58 and only pays $55 a month for full coverage $500 deductible here in Utah. The company is American Family Insurance. BTW, I'm 23 and I'm sure it would be outrageous under my name. Good luck!!!!

Is the Vette your daily driver? If rates are sky high for you, it almost pays to go out and buy a $1000 car and call that your daily driver and take out a low cost agreed value collector policy on the Vette. OOPS! did I say that out loud?

Re: Insurance? (Hippiehead025)
I have full coverage on my 91 and it's only costing me $450 a year from Geico. Maybe it's because I'm 53 years old. I don't know if they are making a mistake on their part but I'm not going to question it. I only put about 2,000 miles a year on it though.
