How To Insure Your Classic Car Properly


MAKE SURE YOU ASK YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY ABOUT THE COVERAGE AMOUNT THEY CAN PROVIDE.

When it comes to classic car coverage, it may not be as easy as covering a modern car. Make sure the company offers all the coverage you need and want. They should offer roadside service with special transportation options for your classic, coverage for spare parts and specialty tools, or protection as your vehicle is being restored.


CHECK THE INSURANCE COMPANY'S CREDIT RATING.

Make sure the company has a positive credit rating. If the policy is underwritten by a company that is A.M. Best rated, the better chance they will stand behind their services and products.


CHECK ONLINE FOR REVIEWS LEFT BY CURRENT AND FORMER CLIENTS.

You want an insurance company that has a good track record. Read their reviews and see what customers say about their claims process.


MAKE SURE THE INSURANCE COMPANY REALIZES THE TRUE VALUE OF THE CAR.

Talk with different insurers and you will quickly be able to tell if they understand the values of classic cars. If your car is totaled in an accident, you want someone who understands to have your back. You and your insurance company should agree on the value of your car.


CHOOSE THE COMPANY THAT IS KNOWN FOR GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE.

Choose a company that cares about you and your special car. Make sure they are available anytime you may need them. Can you call and get a real person on the phone?
