<VV> Insurance Question

[J R Read]

Depends (at least partly) on how you will use it.

If the mileage will be relatively low, you will likely qualify for an 
Antique Vehicle plate (goes by other names - depends on the state).  If so, 
you will likely get a genuine break on the cost of the plate.  Also (while 
not required to have that plate), you will likely also be way better off 
with a separate Antique Auto Insurance policy for you special car - rather 
than simply adding it to your existing policy.

Some things to look for on the Antique Auto policy and not generally 
available on a "regular" policy are:
Agreed Amount (on a total)
Full Glass - no deductible
You might even find no deductible physical damage (Comprehensive and even 
Collision) coverage.

There are probably at least a half dozen companies that provide these 
policies.  I'm not going to recommend a specific one - though others may. 
I'll simply say, shop and compare.  Know what your car is worth and add 20% 
to that number for insurance purposes.

Note:  If there is a driver under 25 in the household, many of the specialty 
Antique companies may not be interested in your business.
