Anyway, great looking truck. Can't wait to see it complete.

No I didn't, I checked with them a year ago and they weren't the cheapest.

Hagerty was $710/yr

No, I wanted a slick TG.

I finally got it registered and the 1965 tag can be put on it.

I also got a quote for a full exhaust system with Flow master 2 chambers and 2 1/2" $475-500. I don't think so. i will keep shopping.

hey Alan, that's who my wife got mine through...she works in insurance, and when we lived in FL that was who they went through for antiques at her workplace...you could check direct with them or see if an agency nearby is affiliated....if you haven't settled on anything yet, it can't hurt to check

57truckguy · 03-04-2012, 01:20 AM

Seems awfully high for your vehicle... Mine is stored about 7 months a year, you know rain,snow,ice, salt, weather stripping not installed... LOL I've owned her for 15 years and never has she seen a drop of rain. and knowing the PO I know he never got her wet either.. Then she was stored in a garage for 20 some years before that.. Last titled date for her was in the early 60's..according to the PO. I've only got to sort out some small issues and she could be a DD.. NOT...

VA72C10 · 03-04-2012, 01:28 AM

Doess the AAA price allow you to drive whenever you want or are there restrictions? I know Haggerty requires it to be mainly show use...if you got into a fender bender in a Home Depot parking lot you'd have a chance they'd deny the claim...

Are you referring to exhaust or insurance?

Can't be used as a daily driver. I'm allowed 6000 miles a year. That wasn't my choice. It goes from 1000/yr to 6000/yr. They said I can't drive it to work. I told her I need to drive it to work to finish it and it will stay there a week or two. She sent me a form that I fill out and fax to them stating it will be stored somewhere else for a couple weeks instead of my home.

The insurance nightmare is bugging me, but the truck is looking great.

I got a set of horns, but have to remove the grill to mount them, or i could mount them down in the frame.

Also got the license plate and light n bolts mounted. I really like them.

likaroc13 · 03-08-2012, 11:56 PM

i like the license plate lights...saw where you picked up that idea from Jesse...been thinking about getting a year of make plate for mine as well

65Custom · 03-09-2012, 09:38 AM

Those are the brightest plate lights I have ever seen. I like those they really light up the plate.

198plus · 03-10-2012, 11:03 AM

Alan here's my exhaust, think I'm just going to end mine with turn downs.

Thanks for posting this Ronnie. I was gonna try to find it. I think I will dump mine at the axle, unless the muffler man can make it work.

Glad you checked in. I can't keep up with all the new builds going on either. i remember 4-5 years ago it was easy to keep up with everyone's build.

Thanks guys!!

No progress this week end. I did start it and pulled it out because Jimmythompson1964 stopped by to check it out. It's always nice to meet others that have a love for these old trucks. It was nice to meet you and your daughter Jimmy.
