Default Insurance

I carry American Family on all our vehicles, home, etc.

They have collector car insurance but many agents are unfamaliar with it. Last summer I was trailering my cobra on a long haul and the crank handle on the trailer roof vent came loose and fell on the top of the front fender, and left a nice 1/8" deep divot that was about 3/8" in diameter. The estimate for show quality repairs came in at $4990. The adjuster readily agreed that paint quality at that level was required, and that the front half of the car would have to be re-cleared. He went out to his vehicle to the computer, and in 5 minutes he came back into the garage with a check. There was absolutely no hassle at all over who would do the repairs or the amount.

Plus, the only restriction on the cobra is that it be kept in a locked garage when not in use. No mileage restrictions or driving restrictions at all. Plus the rate is about $400 per year agreed upon value with high liability and full coverage.
