Oh I've got way more than that into it.

Just thinking basic replacement cost with no labor.

1 owner mustang less than 100k miles
Engine
Transmission
Rear end
Color change paint job
Front suspension
Rear suspension
Cage, tubs, subframe
Race parts
Brakes
Custom gauges
Wiring
Fuel system
Wheels & tires

Not junk yard pick and pull used junk. You hit 70k before you have time to know if a fart is wet or not

Something doesn’t sound right there. How much do you want to insure it for? I have Hagerty on the 1967 Firebird for 45K and it costs me 390.00 a year and that includes roadside assistance.
 
Me telling the insurance!
Here is the vin .the motor was rebuilt and the car was totally repainted i want it insured for 15k it only driver to car shows or ice cream store .

What the fuck are you talking about?

Why would I insure a car for far less than replacement value?

Car will never leave your site and you will drive it like a saint so you will not worry about theft
I was just saying just give it a quote for your value but don't tell them all the hp detail .
The performance stuff is what drives cost up.
We all know you built a race car but we all know you never get what you put into a race car back.
But I hate to say you need to come up with a realistic number to insure it for if you want to drive it on the street so you need to lie thru your teeth to get that affordable insurance

I honestly can't comprehend what you're talking about.

If some Mexican with no insurance hits me and totals the car. What in the fuck is a $5000 check from insurance going to get me? It won't even replace a 1 owner foxbody with no modifications.

See post 1662. Use some math. Let me know what you come up with.
 
I can call state farm tomorrow and insure it for $45. That isn't the question
 
I finally get it.

You guys are trying to drive Fox insane.

Carry on, I'm not judgmental.

:p
 
I don't understand how the cage gets cert and you get any insurance when you stick way out above the roof like that

Don't bitch because the premium is too high and then bitch because the coverage
isn't good enough at a lower premium.

When a 70k brand new car you drive every day costs less than a 1989 mustang you drive a couple times a month on a Sunday, with equal coverage the math don't math.

Part of me thinks some of you don't have the coverage you think you do with those providers
 
5 months of sitting

Do you re-prime or just crank with fuel pump off until pressure comes up
 
Going to grab some of these to keep the harnesses in place.
