Can I ask what you're paying a year for insurance and any limitations if any????

$800 a year, and that's with having just made a claim on the Cobra I just destroyed in May. Full coverage, 7,500 mile/year limitation. I know for a fact that the MSO you receive with these cars whether factory built or not is going to say "kit" on it. If you can title your car as a 1965 Shelby Cobra then you can insure it as such. But if you title it as a 2003' or whatever year it was made, there is not going to be a vehicle in the books for the insurance company to rate you with so it will go under "special construction". If I build a Lonestar in my backyard and then get it titled as a 2003', what is stopping me from saying it was factory built at Lonestar? The MSO's are identical, they are titled identical. I don't get how telling the insurance company that it is factory built has a bearing on whether or not they insure you. I'm not saying it doesn't, in your guys case it must, but I sure don't see why the insurance boys are buying it.
