Yes indeed, many use Silver Wheels through Lant Insurance Brokers in Stouffville Ontario. This insurance is meant for the hobbyist so not a good choice if you want to drive to the supermarket or drive to work every day. Premium is about $100 per year on an appraised value up to $5,000 then it goes on a sliding scale.
I think I'm going to try Classic Car Insurance by Whetter, Oaklin Insurance. They had a booth set up at the London Autorama and the rep was a real car guy. He helped initiate the plan and seems to have all the bases covered. If I'm close on what I think my car will be appraised for, my premiums will be around $125. They also allow for long distance towing (I think 200kms) and will cover spare parts-a smart idea in case your garage goes up in flames.

I've had Silver Wheel as well and they seemed pretty good. Of course, you never really know how good any company is until you have a claim.. Todd
I talked to the lady, at the London show, and I liked the fact, I could take the car, up town for milk or ice cream, and not worry about having someone run into me, and I wasnt on the way to a show or testing car...
thanks guys, i have heard of these companies before and they both sound good so i will give them a ring on monday. I have the car appraised for 5000, which is what it was appraised for when i first got it,do you think i should have it appraised again now ? or would that be a fair replacment value?
