Folks-
I have not tried to put any of my Westies on Hagerty; as I drive them too
much. However, they were one of the ONLY positive insurance experiences I
have ever had. I CAN whole heartedly recommend them... but there are
limitations as Eric mentions. I did have a regular plate on the Porsche and
was able to drive it more than to just car shows; it was pretty liberal on
the limitations considering the coverage and the agreed value. As our vans
get older and some of them become more valuable maybe they will include
them. I would say it's worth pursuing. I will call them and ask- it can't
hurt. They are very inexpensive and good to deal with- IMHO
