Their are companies that specialize in this kind of coverage. You might
be able to get an appraisal form one of their representatives or perhaps
from a member of a local British car club who does this sort of thing
for this very purpose.
Many mainstream auto insurers will also cover your classic at so
much/$1000 value. I'm not sure how they arrive at the value for a car
but I would assume an appraisal form some qualified person is required.
One company I know about that specializes is:
Cooper Love & Jackson
1084 Hayes St
Nashville, TN 37203
800-274-1804
I know absolutely nothing about this company other than what they say in
their ad which is tha they insure classic, vintage and historic cars
(including race coverage).
