For many owners of classics, their car is more than just a car: it’s an investment, a dream realized, the outcome of a lot of hard work.If any of these apply to you, you’ll want to make sure it’s protected with the right insurance.Because antique and classic vehicles are all so different, your insurance will need to be crafted specific to your vehicle and how you intend to use it.While standard auto insurance can provide the legal requirements to use your classic, specifically liability coverage, it isn’t designed for rare, antique, or classic cars.

An insurance policy designed for classic cars will usually provide:Agreed Value Coverage.Agreed value means you and the insurance company agree on a value for the vehicle before the policy is written.In the event of a total loss, you’re paid this amount, less any deductible.
