We use Barrett Jackson, Mecum, Kruse and other auctions as comparables when insuring high dollar cars. Sometimes the underwriters just don't understand and you have to show proof. On another note, I have an old 68 Malibu out back that I am thinking about sticking a Hemi in and running it through BJ in the fall. Anyone know where I can get a set of motor mounts for that???  (all in jest of course unless I could find one of those Smokey Yunick Hemis). Just out of curiosity, why do you use these auctions for insurance purposes?  This is just a personal opinion of mine, but all I see these auctions as is rich people competing against one another to see who has too much money to spend.  In other words, I see it as all smoke & mirrors, not a reflection of what the cars are realistically worth.   Tom
