Hi Matt:
I hope you retained fire and theft insurance. American Family just started a
program for people who have collector cars. You pay the 6 month fee for total
coverage and you can drive your car all year long. This applies to areas that
have a snow (salt) season. If a nice day pops up in December you can drive the
car and have full coverage.
Good luck with your project.
