Hagerty Ratings

Nice to see our Cherks tied for 6th, followed by the Waggy tied for 11th.

Interesting pricing between the two as well. In my world that doesn't compute though. It seems as though it should at least be the other way around, with nice Wags collecting a premium versus nice Cherokees. At least from my experience. Maybe that is starting to change? Maybe there are just way more Wags to turn into collector pieces? Maybe they are inflating the Cherks from the recent one that sold over $20k at Barrett?

Thoughts?

Here in BC Canada provincial auto insurace and my yearly rate is $800 after 40% discount and driving less than 30 miles per day. Up this area on Craiglist there are several wagons with the $8600 that require a make over, paint job/ rebuild for some and others that do look pretty. That includes the areas of BC, Washington and Oregon state.

Those seem like pretty decent insurance quotes they list. Curious though if those are for show-only cars, or for seasonal drivers? Maybe I should price out mine with Hagerty and see if I can save a bit.

I have thought about doing the same. But with my current carrier, I do get a multi-line discount. So I guess it would depend on your situation. For me, it makes more sense to keep everything under one carrier.

Interesting. We knew that primo Grand Wagoneers were going for top dollar.

Realize there is a lot of volatility in this list since it's based on recent auctions. I would say the sample size is pretty small, and the effect of outliers will be large.

Not at all surprising these may be increasingly valuable - '66-77 Bronco, '93-03 RX-7, '64-67 El Camino, '90-94 Corrado.

Surprising/skeptical that this is not an anomaly or that they will appreciate much more: '72-80 Scout II and '48-63 Studebaker Pickup (oddball utility vehicles), '67-73 F-Series (Ford builds a million light trucks each year).

Utility vehcles have always lagged same-make same-year passenger cars. If you like them as a collectible, the right car to preserve is a survivor, since you'll never make back restoration costs.

I have a policy through Safeco through a broker, and pay ~$450 a year for $22,000 agreed value, and it's listed as a classic car. I do insure two other vehicles and have homeowner's through them though.
