We got a second household, non-classic car this year, which means that all drivers in the household now have cars that aren't classics, which ultimately meant that I could finally get classic insurance on the 914 and "car in construction" insurance for the GTV. So happy to know that the 914 is now insured for its value and not for its age. I was afraid to drive it towards the end there. If anything went wrong I knew I'd have to argue with All State that it isn't a beat up, 40-year old, VW.

Sorry for the off topic post. I was wondering where you got clear front side marker lenses? I assume they are aftermarket? They look stunning on a silver car especially with the clear,(Italian?), front turn signal lenses. TIA

While they may not be entirely legal without amber bulbs, I think they look great on silver cars and on certain blue ones as well. |

You can make them legal by using amber bulbs.
Who did you use for insurance? |

Who did you use for insurance? For USAA members, they have an agreement with American Collectors Insurance that coordinates your collector car insurance with your other cars (I also had an umbrella policy so I had to make sure the underlying car insurance was as required for that). I insured my 76 for $25K declared value, and can drive it up to 5,000 miles per year for car shows and club events, fun drives, and occasional other uses (except no timed events). Saved me about $175/year over what I was paying for the 914 with my other 3 cars, and eliminated the potential fight over value if I had to make a claim on my regular policy. No affiliation with USAA or ACI. |

I live in the Porsche theft capital of the universe (Southern Cal near two major freeways to LA)... I use Hagerty with stated value of 40K for less than 10 bucks a day..... Half of what i was paying Geico for half the value and for a guaranteed future argument.......

State Farm should of been able to provide you with a stated value policy. At least I know my agent said they could do that. She might be subbing it out. She said I would have to provide several photos to document condition. I was asking as the one I'm working on is my sisters and I was thinking I'd throw some plates and insurance on it to "test" drive it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
