Adequate Protection for Spare Parts Being Used to Restore Your Classic Car

Your classic car restoration project may require you to order parts regularly. You may benefit from insurance coverage that pays for replacing any automotive products lost, stolen, or damaged during the restoration project.

Add-On Coverage

Classic automotive policies can be customized to include coverage for the replacement materials that will be used during a restoration project.

The automotive parts that you purchase for your restoration project may require a big investment on your part. Adding these parts to your classic car automotive policy will provide peace of mind while your restoration project is underway.

Your Inventory

Create an inventory of all the OEM or aftermarket parts you have chosen to purchase for the restoration project. While creating the inventory, tabulate the overall cost of the parts you will need to complete the project. Then, decide which parts to add to your classic car insurance policy.

You may want to cover some of the materials below.

  • Electrical materials
  • Limited edition materials
  • Mechanical parts
  • Trim and vanity plates

Storage Essentials

Prepare a storage plan that will keep automotive materials clean and dry. If you are restoring your classic car while parked in a garage, plan to store the automotive parts nearby.

If you do not have a definitive area to complete the restoration project, invest in a storage unit or container that can be used to store all the materials.
