[6pack] Classic Insurance....

[David Friedlander]

  Erik;

You've got a couple of questions working there. On one of your points, I 
went to my local body shop that specializes in classic car restorations 
and got him to do a full-up appraisal. Cost me a bit for the appraisal 
but it was worth it. I took the appraisal to my local State Farm office 
and they insured it for the full value of the appraisal, no questions 
asked. And, as an Antique Car, the insurance is pretty modest and, here 
in Maine, I need no annual inspections..
