keith/gordy,
i agree that hagerty is the way to go, they quoted me $236/year on an agreed
value of $30k for a de tomaso pantera - you tell 'em what you think your car is
worth, if they think that's a reasonable amount, they will insure the car for
that.  there is NO deductible, you are FULLY covered.  the restrictions are that
you have a secure covered storage area (garage), and that you have another car
as a daily driver.  a couple folks on the pantera digest have made claims, w/no
problems.

a '73 alfa spider should be no problem, but gordy, i'm curious about how you
were able to get them to cover your '87 spider - i asked them if they would
cover my '86 gtwe6, and they said there are currently no alfas that new which
would qualify.  if i could get 'em to ensure my gtwe6, then my werde would
become the daily driver.
