Hagerty classic car insurance

Mr. T · #1 01-25-2004, 03:15 AM

I am thinking about switching classic car insurance companies. I have heard some good things about Hagerty and I would like to know what you guys think of it. How many of you have Hagerty car insurance for your classic/musclecars?

I have 2 on Hagerty, and never had a claim.
Also have 2 with American Collectors...Placed a claim, gave them 2 estimates, and they paid the lower of the 2...no hassels.

Haggerty isn't available in my country, but I have heard good things about them from American friends.

Their commercials during the BJ Auction are super

if that means anything

We've had our cars insured through Hagerty for years and have been very pleased with them.

What's the coverage for uninsured motorists and what kind of coverage do you get for yourself if you cause an accident. I am also wondering about the amount of mileage you can rack up a year and still be covered. My current insurance provider policy lets me put on 3,000 miles a year or less for each of my 69 Camaros.

I use them for my collection. They are easy to do business with and the rates are fair. Tom

Hello, I'm seeking helpful advice....I bought a 69 Camaro VERY NICE Big Block "Driver". Car resides at friends home on East Coast and I live in Seattle burbs. I am/was planning on leaving car with friend to participate at a few 2005 Car Show/Cruise events.
So I call Haggerty to insure car. First of all I estimated annual driving milage at 5000 (Wild Ass Guess) which apparently thay didnt like. Then they want me to have an insured REGULAR use car at my friends house, so I want use the 69 for REGULAR use when Im visiting. Tryed to explain that when Im visiting I would be with friend for any regular transportation purposes.
Guess I should have just not have mentioned back east situation as Ive have Washington Lic Plates and Reg on car.
Haggerty quoted me $271 per year for $35K agreed policy (including flat bed towing). Grundy wanted over $400 for same thing......
Now I'm calling J.C. Taylor who said they wouldnt insure it in WA state because it had Headers (Day 2 car).
I also might be applying with Condon and Skelly......but will need to somehow prove that a VERY NICE COPO "clone" could be worth $35K....
Feel free to contact me directly at [email protected]

Thanks, Chuck Sharin

I've had my cars insured with Hagerty and with my renewal coming up I called Tamara. She is very knowledgeable and I increased the coverage substantially for the about the same money I was paying Hagerty. I've had coverage with American Collectors, Hagerty, and now with MK. All agreed value and all companies who underwrite this business check out good.
