So here's the latest.

Am seriously considering 'Parish-Heaco(k' for classic vehicle insurance.  Just under $800.00/year; 88K agreed value; 3000 miles limited use per year, etc.

Thoughts?

I insured my Cobra with them for several years and had no problems but never filed a claim either.
I have checked with Hagerty, Condon & Skelly, JC Taylor and I too am leaning towards Parrish-Heaco(k. Every company looked at several price guides and had no problems (only JC Taylor wanted an appraisal) with the values that I gave them. Of course, the prices I gave them would not actually replace them but would help me at least get another nice car.

I could not find ratings on any of the classic car insurance companies in the above link nor do I know of anyone that has actully had to file a claim  :dunno:. I need to make a decision soon considering tornado season is here  :bricks1: :1zhelp:
