You’ve put time and passion into personalizing your vehicle. Let us help you tailor an insurance policy that’s designed specifically for your antique or collector car.
Before you hit the road or showcase your prized vehicle, make sure you have the specialized coverage classic and collectible cars deserve. Unlike standard vehicles, these cars are valued differently in the marketplace and require unique insurance solutions.
Standard insurance practices may not reflect the true market value of your classic car, leaving you vulnerable to out-of-pocket expenses for repairs or replacements. Gaps in coverage could result in unexpected financial loss.
We appreciate the dedication and passion you invest in your classic, antique, or modified car. Our tailored policies protect a wide range of collectible vehicles, ensuring your investment is fully covered at every turn.
Protect Your Classics
Why is Classic or Collectible Car Insurance Different?
Classic and collectible car insurance is different than ordinary car insurance because it’s geared to cover the full collectible value of your car. In the same way you’d customize your ride, you need a customized classic car policy, which takes into account the car’s collectible value, the miles you drive each year, and many other personalized adjustments.
But unlike standard auto insurance policies, you only pay for what you need because you won’t need full time coverage. So you’ll be surprised at how affordable complete coverage can be for average classic and collectible car owners like you.
How Do I Qualify for Classic and Collectible Car Insurance?
When we submit your application for insurance, your insurance carrier may require us to provide some or all of the information below. Should you ever be in the unfortunate position of filing a claim, everything will be in order.
- Usage: It is your car and you should feel free to drive it. We will tailor your policy to reflect your driving habits.
- Storage: Your collectible car should be stored inside in a secure locked garage or structure. The following storage facilities normally qualify: residential garage, barn, secure rental storage unit, and others. Let’s talk about yours!
- Regular-Use Vehicles: Since you don’t need to drive your “baby” every day, carriers will require that you maintain “regular use” insurance in your name on a daily driver vehicle. Customarily, motorcycles do not qualify as a daily driver nor does public transportation.
- Driver Eligibility: As with other forms of auto insurance, your driving history will also be taken into account. Serious infractions within the last 5 years such as OUI, DUI, excessive speeding, driving recklessly or an alcohol citation could affect eligibility, but may not necessarily disqualify you. Minor traffic violations or accidents per household are generally acceptable.
The I. Dachs Difference
You might be tempted to choose the least expensive insurance available, but keep in mind that you could be sacrificing important coverage. While many insurance products may appear similar in cost and purpose, insurance providers differ greatly in how they tailor policies to truly protect you. There’s no universal insurance solution that fits every business’ unique needs.
As members of your community, we safeguard businesses and individuals we genuinely care about. That’s why we’re committed to finding better ways to protect you, including selecting insurance partners who are both cost-effective and responsive. Reach out to us and let our experts help you build the strongest shield to secure what you’ve worked so hard to achieve.
