yeah book value for my SS is around $20k, but with collector car insurance they dont just pay whats its worth market value, they factor in what has been done and that value is agreed upon. i thought about an ls7, but chose to do a fully worked iron 6.0l stroker with and ATI setup. Then the trans will be completely reworked, all tubular front suspension, ford 9" rear, full brake upgrades. paint will be redone pewter with a metallic blue pearl over it with the stripes painted on. has true HID headlights, am/fm/cd/dvd in dash monitor and full system(to be redone again soon) plus the rear facia has the Export taillights and export rear bumper with rear fogs(something i have not seen in the US yet) With the base of 20k for the car and all those add-ons, its way up over 40k. Why would i insure it for any less? so someone hits me and i loose tens of thousands of dollars? id rather not. and as for mileage restrictions, hmmm, how many cars do i own, with my Denali as my daily driver i highly doubt i'll put 3k miles on 3 other cars, I'll probably take the SS out once a month or less. So mileage or the parking in agarage isnt an issue sinc ei'll have 5 indoor garage spaces available by the spring.
