The mileage isn't a deal breaker, heck my firechicken barely sees 5000 a year so my Nova would be lucky to see half that.

Hagerty policy clearly states it is covered on the way to the track, at the track but not on the track itself. Rollcage is a deal breaker for many companies - do you have one? I think hagerty is a no on cages, I'd have to poke through some old threads to see who is ok with a cage.

You may also get reduced premium if the car is not roadworthy. You should ask.

My hagerty liability is also $300k per acc to match my DD coverage, so that upped my cost a bit. I did have to show them proof of a DD for each driver in the house and proof of my extended coverage. I have zero limitations on the insurance except the racing clause. I asked if I could take it on power tour and they said 'enjoy'.
The car does have an 8-pt bar, so that could be problematic. Don't devote any time to the research on old threads. When I get closer I'll dig deeper. I do remember the cage and "participation in timed events" being a deal killer with Grundy's I think. I agree on the honesty part, I would hate to need the insurance for some reason and then be denied because I wasn't forthcoming. Not worth it to go that route.
