Hi Brian - not a hijack at this point, I think the original question has been pretty well answered :^).

I insured the car (and another car, a v8-powered RX7) with Northeast Classic car insurance http://www.classiccarinsurance.com/. They were very good to deal with, I had a $500 deductible, and they paid the rest of what I had the car insured for without a fight. I'd rather they didn't total the car out, but as it stood, it was either accept that the car was totaled or make no claim at all. Given the damage to the car I didn't want to make a no-claim (not an easy decision) so I opted to let them total it and then I bid on the car when it finally went to auction via Copart. When I didn't win the auction this fall, I went ahead with the Unique build.

I have no idea what will happen if I go to insure another Cobra with them, but hopefully we'll see in a few months.

All the best,
Chris
