Many classifications are accepted
A collector car’s age, rarity, value, unique features, limited use, availability of parts and services, and popularity across generations make it more desirable than a common auto. This product accepts a very wide range of vehicles:
- Classic
- Antique
- Muscle
- Street rod
- Modified
- Replica
- Kit car
- Exotic
- Race car
- Restoration in process
- Fire engine
- Military vehicle
- Tractor
- Truck
Agreed value settlement eliminates depreciation
Before the policy activates, you as the agent, the car’s owner, and our underwriters agree on the car’s value and insure it for that amount. In the event of a total loss, that agreed upon value is the payout amount. The deductible of course applies, but there is no depreciation and no misunderstanding.
