Apoligize if cannot read stuff. Basically car appraised at 25k and insured by Grundy Ins. for 1/3 the cost I was paying for blue book with Progressive.

Sorry. I am having trouble posting pcture. I meant to post the appraisal.

is this for your 95 gsx???

Hope this works this time.

Sorry about attempts to put other pics on. I give up trying. At least I got appraisal on and that was my point. Grundy Ins. will insure your cars. If your interested, just reply to me and I can get you in touch with the agent. Only go through agent. Then you will pay less for insurance and insure your car for actual worth with all are mods vs. blue book through Farmer, State Farm, Progressive, etc. ;)

holly crap! time to smash it into a wall and get some $$.
j/k good job.

How much did the appraisal cost?

$100. You can make appt. and go to him or he can drive to your location. Once you have appraisal, then send report with pictures to agent along with 1yr payment. If you call Grundy they will just say know, but an agent will make the difference and pull it through underwriting.

One thing to note about Grundy, is they only insure vehicles that are for non work, school etc. You can only drive it to club events, or other car activities. Even if you drove it to do arrends they could deny a claim. You have to sign something that says you won't drive it to work/school. So they could easily deny any claim.

I thought about putting my Stealth/Spyder with Grundy, but I was really turned off by this. I occasionally drive them to work or non car related functions. I also researched them with the Better Business Bureau. They don't do to good with the BBB.

Grundy has some fantasitc rates. You know what they say about things that sound too good to be true.

later,

Thanks for the heads up Curt! I was getting pretty interested in it until that. Would hanging out at Uni be a car event? :D

Your right, I personally do not drive car very often, only to events, never to work. I got the policy in case car stolen. 5 times $$$ back if car stolen then any other insurance co. All in writing. If you get hit they will insure because every hot rod enthusiast drives their car. You have to drive under 3000 miles each year and must keep garaged. Last year I drove only 2000 miles. I hated driving my car before knowing I was not insured correctly. Nothing in writing that says they will deny driving for pleasure as long as you do not go over 3000 miles, but this policy is not meant for someone who drives their hot rod allot or to school and work. ;)

JUST MY VIEW POINT?


WHATS THE POINT OF ONLY DRIVING A CAR 3000 MILES A YEAR?
Arent cars supposed to be driven? dang i do 3000k in a little over a month in my lightning...... Its kewl to have a nice car dont get me worng... Ive always felt the most connected to my car when driving it not staring at it ..... I dont build cars to look at them, but to drive them..... just my .02 ... not saying im worng or right, it just doenst make sence to me. please explain?

i'm not going to spend 20k on a car and sit there and watch it, screw it, its like buying a raincoat and not going outside because you will get it wet... hmm...

I see your point, but when you own 3 cars and a fulltime job you don't have time. My eclipse is considered my hot rod and only drive in summer. I don't even know where the time goes. Sometimes I wonder why I spent 3 times more time building vs. driving the car up to this point. Mainly because I like working on car more then driving and learning. I drive it on weekend! My neighbor owns 4 corvettes and I never see him drive them, until a week ago he drove by when I was grabbing the mail in the morning. He shaved his head and roared at 175mph down 35E highway at 6:30am on a sunday morning. So I guess it is just an escape for him. My eclipse is just an escape for me or a precious commodity. Pretty dumn ha. :dsmrule:

Good points from everyone.

I for one will stick with driving my car as much as I can once I can afford insurance and gas again. :( Cars are meant to be driven, and darn it, that's what I intend on doing.
