    I have had my insurance on my old 32 roadster with Grumby since I've owned it 8 years or so. Next year my 36 Sedan Delivery and 34 Plymouth Coupe will be ready to go and on the road. I can't see myself logging more then a couple thousand miles on any of them as I live in Upstate and have a short season. I just got my invoice from Grundy and they raised it for the first time since I joined them. I want to say I have NO complaints with them but no claims either. What's the best way to insure 3 cars that don't log many miles. I would like to keep the cars insured year around just to save the h***le of starting and stopping insurance. Thanks, Jim

    Just keep them with "Grumby". Every ins. co. is raising thier rates. They are saying that is because a scratch costs $500 to fix these days instead of $200 like a few years ago. The small claims have gone up so much they have to gey it back somehow. I hate ins. co. as much as anyone else but I understand thier problem.
     
  3. I also have Grundy & it went up about 4 dollars
    no Big deal considering what they Charge
    compared with the Other Co.

    Just my 3.5 cents

    Contact Americian Modern Ins Co.

    I just switched from about $750 with my company to $426 for same coverage but with a $300 dedt. for four cars.

    Their policy with good coverage, cost me $136 for Liabilty. Then you add only about $55 to $75 for collision and fire and thieft for each additional car.

    I have mine as a Recreational Vehicle, and can drive 5000 miles for each collector car I have. I have 4 Old Cars, and 3 Drivers. Ask for Recreational, unless you are driving everyday, and that is a different story !
    It is just like Insuring a Motor home, or a Motor boat.
