Marlin,Did you smoke the tires leaving Ottsville Pa last nite? I did,couldn't resist,no law enforcement to be found.Nice car and it was nice meeting and talking to you.By the way someone put a note on my Nova's dash to call them about a certain supercar dealer we talked about,did you send them over?

Dan;
As much as I wanted to 'leave sideways' from Pryuski's Ice Cream stand on Friday night, my better judgement prevailed. Although I did not see any State Troopers either, my car is pretty fresh out of the wrapper, ie; no license plates, no registration, no insurance, and my wife, (6 months pregnant), was riding next to me. No showing off with that risky combination!! I unloaded/reloaded at the elementary school a couple of hundred yards down the road, and scooted back to Perkasie, PA.

I think the guy who left the note was Paul Tholey, 'pxtx' on this site. He has particular interest in those old Nova's.

I was surprised to see BB members at such a small cruise-in! I was even more surprised that so many people actually knew what a Yenko was. Fun time.

Marlin,shame on you!Insure your car even if it is not to be driven.I hate to preach,but I just witnesssd a 20k 69 Z/28 get hit head on while sitting PARKED in a turning lane waiting for traffic to break.I would hate to see anyone get stuck with a loss for any reason.

Steve,
I understand your point, and it's a good one. I am in the process of getting the appraisal, then insurance, ect..... I have trailered it to the two events we have attended so far, but I am 'running between the raindrops' so to speak. It wont' come back out until it's insured, tagged, and registered.

I have not been able to resist driving it around the neighborhood a few times, and one good 45 foot burnout - makes up for the 5.5 years of work!!
Thanks, good advice,
Marlin

Even if the car is in a garage, it should have comprehensive on it to cover it if something should happen to the garage.
Heck, my work in progress was in the garage when a hail storm came thru. Major damage to the cars and house. The Camaro was fine, but the comp covered the couple of parts I had sitting outside.

Kurt;
I agree, the policy that I'm getting will be a 'stated value' policy, and it requires a licensed appraisal, photos of the car, photos of the garage, ect.... After doing a fair amount of research, and shopping around, I decided to go with Parish Heacock Insurance out of Burns, TN. I'm hoping for a smooth process, all the way to the Antique License Plate from PA - ha!
