John,
I think the key thing I pulled from your email is "he drives these things to
work on a fairly regular basis". When I was shopping classic car insurance,
that eliminated many of the companies including Hagerty. As soon as I told
them that I drive the car to work, grocery store, mall, golf course etc and
leave it in the parking lot, they wouldn't insure it. You'll need to shop
around for someone who lets him drive his cars as he wants to AND offers
"agreed to value" rather then "declared value".

Subject: [TR] Insurance Question
All,
A friend of mine has an insurance - well problem isn't quite the right word
- maybe issue is better. He's afflicted with the Large Amurrican
Convertible disease in a big way - he's got a total of 8 cars. Up to this
point he has been activating/suspending coverage on the classics seasonally,
which has been costing him some good top-down driving weather. His
insurance company would be happy to insure all of them, of course, but since
the household only has two drivers, he feels that there should be some
middle ground. Does anyone have (or know of) an insurance company (other
than the classic-types - he drives these things to work on a fairly regular
basis) that will cover multiple cars for the two drivers - i.e. whichever
ones they're using today? I guess it would be sort of a 'floating' policy -
comprehensive on all of them (for while they're not being driven) and
collision/liability on whichever one he chooses to drive today. Anybody?
Anybody?
TIA,
John Dombey
