Does anyone use Hagerty Classic Insurance for cars? Have you had to make any claims? I was thinking of using them on my Mustang. Mark

I use them. They are a super bargain. I have never made a claim yet however.

I've been using them for about 5 years now. My cousins a local insurance agent and he says they're one of the best classic insurance companies out there. I've never had a claim though....but I'll get a feel for them in a few weeks after I get copies of "all" these receipts and try and increase the value of my '65 ?!?!?------------------ Conciousness - that annoying time between naps.

I am about to insure my Mustang. How is Hagerty compared to more of mainstream insurance like State Farm. Is the appraisal process different, lower rates, etc? Just wondering, trying to get the best coverage for the buck.Thanks Marshall ------------------ 1968 302 5-spd Fastback, Modified 1965 Coupe 1981 F-150

I qot a quote from Hagerty insurance for my 73 Fastback with 0 deductible with a value of $15000 and the premium was $244 a year. Sounds to good to be true.Ryan, I just installed a set of Crower stainless steel roller rockers today. They are very nice, much better than the Crane rockers. I still have the stupid noise. I called Crane again today because the valve train is all there parts. They wanted me to check the oil presure (80 psi) and call them back. They are now going to send me another set of lifters to try. I can not find anything wrong with the valve train and am out of ideas. I just hope this will fix it. Mark

Yes, I agree! I have asked this question more than once and no one seems to have an answer. I haven't talked to Hagarty but the local Mustang shop owner has it and says you can put 3500 miles on per year. I would have to have a difinitive answer so I can DRIVE my car and not baby it to a parade or a show For me to be able to drive my car like a regular car, which I do, it costs the same as any other car But, I AM covered for all uses and that's what it's about for me!

I have Haggerty and they have the lowest premiums of any of the Classic agencies. Of course they do have some limitations on where and when you can drive the auto, but the price makes up for it. I have my 72 Mach, and my wife's 77 MGB insued through them. $15000, on the Mach and $12000 on the MGB. The total premium is only $272 a year for both of them, so the poster above that was quoted more thanthis for just one vehicle, needs to check it out. That is too high. There is no appraisal process. They insure the car for what you tell them to, and it is an agreed value policy, You total it, and they pay off in that amount. No claims from me, but a frend had one and they paid what it took to get the car fixed right. They can insure us so cheap, because they are limited use autos, and we baby and take care of them with a fanztic nature. In other words, we are good risks. Rick

I have Hagerty Ins. and as far as I know there is no limit on the miles you can put on the car. I had a rear window replace in my Fairlane that cost $1100 and never had a problem with them. They told me to take it wherever I wanted to get fixed.
