Re: [Chevelle-list] Alex - Insurance?

Title: Message

Back in 2002,I talked to Hagerty about insuring my 1991 ZR-1 Corvette. Not your average ZR-1 but a Callaway Aerobody Supernatural conversion,#19 of only 19 built. After numerous phone conversations,I thought coverage had been secured but they refused the deal. Probably what you're thinking is that the Callaway was too high of a risk or something to that effect. No,the reason they refused to cover the car was because My Daily Driver Was Two Years Too Old! That car was a 1997 model. They wasted a week of my time and theirs,only to come up with that crock. What did I do? Politely thanked them and called JC Sneed Co. In two hours,I had a better policy at a cheaper rate. Just so you don't think that was an isolated incident with Hagerty,let me give you a little background info. Since 1996,I've been Director of three large organizations with total memberships of over 10K. Adequate insurance coverage is a necessary evil for owners of any collectible vehicle. After my experience,I talked to many,many people that had similar experiences to share about Hagerty. Mine was not an isolated incident by any stretch of the imagination. Sorry for being so long-winded. I'm sure others have had good experiences with that company. Me,I wouldn't piss on Hagerty if they were on fire.

No offense to anyone using them but IMO, Hagerty sucks. They would be the last company I would ever deal with again.

Well than I'll give him a call.  When I used Hagertys they would not sell direct.  I had to go thru an agent in the DFW area.   It was a Hagerty policy and Hagerty billed me, but I had to go thru the middle man to buy the policy and pay their commission.
