[Healeys] Self Repair with Hagerty?

[Steven Kingsbury]

I also have Hagerty and though I never put in a claim for work to be done, I did put in a claim for a complete loss. They were great to work with and no hassles. I would expect the same for you. Just be honest and let them know your plans. They understand people working on their own cars and they also understand your time is not "free". To cover yourself, go to a local shop, explain your problem and get a ball park estimate. Relay that information to Hagerty. I have no real idea what they will say, but if my experience with them is relevant, they will work with you. Not, against you.Good luck and let us know what you find out and here's to quick and semi-painless recovery.Steven KingsburyBN1On Jul 13, 2022, at 10:18 AM, HealeyRick via Healeys <healeys at autox.team.net> wrote:Shroud appears undamaged, just the bonnet.Rick NevilleVirus-free. www.avast.comOn Wed, Jul 13, 2022 at 9:58 AM Bob Spidell <bspidell at comcast.net> wrote:I have a couple vehicles insured with Hagerty, but have never made a

    estimate and cut you a check (if they have their own adjusters). For
    labor rates, they likely have a chart for 'prevailing' rates in your
    area (I doubt it's much less than $100/hr anywhere in the States).  Looks like some damage to the shroud, or is that just
    water/extinguisher damage?     On 7/13/2022 2:58 AM, HealeyRick wrote:Had a bit of an engine fire in the Nasty Boy

          anytime soon and am considering doing the work myself, except
          for bonnet paint.  Anyone have any experience how Hagerty
          would handle that?  How would they pay for my labor?
