Insuring an historic car is similar to insuring a normal vehicle, though you may find that your current insurance carrier doesn¡¯t offer insurance for historic cars. Rest assured there is almost certainly an insurance company offering historic car insurance in your area though. Insurers have different ways of determining your car¡¯s value, but they usually hire an appraiser to view the vehicle or simply use the blue book value. Most insurance companies will have an appraiser or representative out to view your historic car at some point, as it¡¯s important for them to establish the vehicle¡¯s condition before giving you an insurance policy.
Types of historic Car Insurance
- Stated Value Insurance: Stated value insurance for an historic is fairly safe form of insurance. Basically, you¡¯ll be covered for the stated value of the vehicle during the entire life of the insurance policy.
- Agreed Value Insurance: This form of historic car insurance is typically meant for those who may not use their vehicles for extended periods of time, such as only during spring or summer. You pay a monthly premium for the car, but can eliminate certain coverage when you don¡¯t plan on using it for a while.
- Cash Value Insurance: Generally, cash value insurance is the least preferable historic car insurance for most people. Here, the vehicle¡¯s cash value is determined when the insurance policy is issued. The problem is your historic car¡¯s value may increase over time and your policy wouldn¡¯t reflect it.
