If you are not aware already of collector car insurance you should take a
look.
They are generally much cheaper. The only caveat being that there is a
3000-mile / year limit on driving the vehicle, and it must be stored in a
garage. For example I insure (with American Collector Insurance) my TR6
full collision with an agreed value of my vehicle for less than half of what
liability alone costs with regular insurers.

I just found this list and started getting the digest version 3 days ago.
Wow.
I've had my 72 TR6 for about 15 years now. It was a weekly runner til
last spring when I let the insurance lapse (money issue) and in Calif,
you need proof of insurance before you can re-register the car. Lucky
it's old enough now to be smog exempt, cuz it was a HASSLE to get it
passed each time.
My TR6 is all original, except for the paint and tyres and repair work.
I'm the second owner.
I'll keep lurker for answers to questions I haven't even thought of yet.
Any question for me?

Hey, Dusty, welcome.
May I assume from the word "tyre" that you're a transplanted Brit? I'm also
in Southern California (Woodland Hills, in the infamous "Valley"), and own a
74, which still has to be smogged. I bought it a few months ago, and still
haven't transferred over the title yet-the whole smog thing just scares the
hell out of me, and getting antique tags here is not the clear cut effort it
is in other states.
Are you going to the San Diego British Car Day next Sunday?
regards,
Kraig Griffiths
