In April I posted here regarding regular use car insurance for classic cars (in Ontario.)
An extremely exhaustive search for an insurance company that would insure hot rods / modified classics as regular or leisure-use vehicle was fruitless.
There is no insurance company in Ontario that will insure your hot rodded classic car as a regular, day-to-day, back and forth to work driver.
Except Facility insurance. They quoted me $4100 / year on a $17 000 appraised hot rod (and I haven't had a ticket, accident or claim in better than 25 years).
Since no one except Facility will allow me to use my cars as I want to, does anyone know of a classic car insurance program that allows liberal use of a classic / hot rod?
Hagerty, Silver Wheels and Zehr insurance (who writes through RSA) have severely restricted usage stipulations...you can't take the car shopping, you can't take the car on vacation (unless it's to a car show) and you're only supposed to go directly to and from the car show with the vehicle. You can also use the vehicle if it's for the purpose or repair, testing or demonstration for sale.
Does anyone know of a classic car insurance program that allows you more leeway with the usage?
Thank you in advance for any help you can give me with this.
