Well.... it would seem that Hagerty has some "feelers" into the
DeTomaso email forum.<br>
<br>
I got an unsolicited phone call from them today. The person who
spoke with me had seen an email trail... and mentioned "Mike Drew."
I don't think Mike was the source, but that was the clue they
probably have eyes into this list. It's the -only- place I've made
any comment, and as I recall... never mentioned their name, until
now. Of course Mike Drew hit the nail on the head when he said I'd
been "Hagerty'ed."<br>
<br>
Anyway... they wanted to make sure I understood why the change was
so big and wanted to ask me questions about the "modifications,"
probably to see if they could re-classify it as stock in order to
reduce my yearly cost. Well, it seems 50 HP over stock may be the
magic number (not to mention my other mods). There was no dispute
that it classified as a modified vehicle.<br>
<br>
Then he talked about possible rate reductions if I increased my
deductible. Let's just say what was offered would have taken me 20
years to save in order to meet the deductible. Umm... oh heck, it
was take $50 of the yearly rate if you go with a $1,000 deductible.
Gee, really???? WOW! .... no thanks, I can do math in my head.<br>
<br>
I think I'll just get quotes from some of the others insurance
vendors. Since I know Hagerty will probably get a copy of this...
um... yea... they need to offer me a sweeter deal than that.<br>
<br>

Possibly. -that- as Mike pointed out, was the primary factor that
increased the value. When I said the modified engine was maybe 50
HP more than stock, he said that qualified for "modified." And
then there was the non-stock radiator, non-stock shocks...<br>

I recently changed the policy on my Pantera. I'm

agreed value based on recent market conditions and
on-line valuation tools. I also changed it from
stock to modified.<br>

The surprise in all this is that my cost for the

I figured it all out.<br>

Have you reviewed -your- policy recently to make
