Insurance for the halftrack

[Andrew]

Starting to look for insurance (if its possible) for the half track. Anyone recommend a company in Canada?
Hagerty said no to the tracks.

I use American Collectors Insurance for three antique military vehicles including a fully tracked T-16 Universal Carrier. Seems pretty affordable as you submit what you think your ride is worth along with a photo. If they agree, they quote a rate. A vehicle with a replacement value of around $20K would cost you roughly $120 per year and that has liability insurance as well as full replacement insurance if something happened to the vehicle at home or at an event.

Andy, I have found that US insurance companies can/will not insure cars in Canada.
Perhaps you need to operate under the same system that covers cranes, vacuum excavtor trucks, truck mounted tree spades, etc. here in Ontario. They do not have license plates & must be insured as off road machines. If you could come up with a legitimate farm use for the half track your farm policy should cover it on the road. I drive my John Deere to town once in a while & it is covered by Farmer's Mutual. Your White would certainly pull a wagon load of carrots through a wet field where many tractors would not.

Try Haggerty's they are offering specialty car insurance in B.C. and i see on the web they are in Ontario now too.

The name that comes to mind from when I asked about my M38A1, was Silver Wheels.

The Silver Wheels Insurance is now known as Haggerty's Silver Wheel. It appears that Silver Wheels has merged with Haggerty's. I understand there is a new method of evaluation that eliminates the need for appraisals.
I have many vehicles insured with Silver Wheels & have been treated very well for years, assumably this good service will continue.
