Until now I was extolling the virtues of Hagerty, but without proof, just hearsay that they would do me right if and when I needed them...
Well the time came... my 72 911 was in the shop for 7 months getting all rebuilt mechanicals, and the day it came out of the shop for its maiden test drive, it was rear ended with the mechanic at the wheel. Initially hagerty came up with an insultingly low number for a rear lid, some unbending, paint... I called and politely asked WTF was going on (that was the hardest part, getting to talk to your rep, apparently they are busy)... they said it was just a preliminary... Eventually, they came back with a $# that was 5 times higher than the prelim, and even covered a *full* respray of the car because paint matching was going to be very difficult.... No arguments, the shop asked for $xxx, the adjuster said it was fair, hagerty sent a check, not for a penny less...
I'm impressed... I'll be even more impressed if they don't drop me next year... But respect to Hagerty ! They came through !
