Do you have a special rider on your insurance to cover the truck in an accident, or do you have insurance for a 1971 Chevrolet pickup? You may have just learned a real hard lesson. If you have a truck with what you feel is more valuable than the loss rate your insurance company has it down for then I would get it upped. Same goes for your homeowners. I have already checked into putting a special rider on my homeowners to cover my truck while it is in the garage. I want them to know I have a bunch of dollars in this thing if it were to be blown away in a Tornado or a fire gets it.

You can talk to your insurance company and see if they have an adjuster in town that specializes in classics. They may be able to help you out.

Good luck
