When I got my conversion, I had State Farm.  I checked with my agent before 
purchasing the car and they saw no problems.  About a month after writing the 
policy, I got a letter from the corporate offices stating they wouldn't 
underwrite a conversion like mine and my policy was being canceled.

I briefly switched to Progressive and they had no problems with the conversion. 
 However, at the time, they didn't cover homeowner's insurance in Idaho.  I 
moved all my insurance to Auto Owners Insurance.  They have the conversion 
insured under a Stated Value policy and also cover all my other vehicles and 
homeowners insurance.
