I have two questions on this topic. I called my main insurance company,
Safeco, for a quote when I came close to buying a 1959 TR3 recently. They
quoted me $110/year for $7,500 value limited to 5,000 miles/year. This
quote seems like a really good rate compared to other people posting on this
list. Their catch was that I had to provide them with an appraisal within
30 days to justify the value of the car, even they they said this would be
an "agreed value" policy. Am I missing something here?
