With an agreed amount, you and the insurance company agree upfront on the value of the car. In the event of a total loss, they will pay the agreed amount.

I use the same insurance company for my '88 Carrera as I do for my daily-driver cars. I used Hagerty's valuation tool to come up with a value for my car, including their definitions of the different condition levels (e.g., #2 - "Excellent"). I also provided photos to confirm the condition I claimed.

Every couple years they ask me to provide documentation again.

My 2 cents.
Who is your insurance provider? This is exactly what I’m facing!
