Haven't bought any insurance yet, but the regular companies have no interest in covering a car older than 20yrs. There is a specialty market for short-distance display hobby vehicles. I was on-line with
http://www.lant-ins.ca/ and got a free quote of $100 for a 1970 Jeep.
"Plan is available for non-modified vehicles used for hobby and/or collector car activities, and not used for regular transportation, in two Categories: Antique & Classic for automobiles 25 years and older, and Special Interest for automobiles 15 to 24 years old.
No Claims Bonus - 5% per year to a maximum 15%
Automatic coverage up to $25,000.00 on newly acquired and replacement vehicles (Silver Wheel to be notified within 30 days.)
$2 Million Liability Coverage available"
Now, that company wants the vehicle registered with the province before they will issue coverage, so there is a bit of a conundrum if the MTO clerk can't find the right category on a form. But there have been some very clever suggestions already.
