OK - we bought this car 'cause we knew how much it was totally babied by its first owner - one of my best friends. This car has not even seen rain! When I say it's absolutely perfect - it is. Bright white convertible top and show-room interior. Original EVERYTHING. Oil change every summer - even if only 500 miles were put on it. Anyway, anyone know what it is worth?
Also, can anyone give me info on reputable classic car insurance providers? Thanks!

What part of the world you are in plays a big part in car value.

Wow!!It sounds like one heck of a car.It may be worth quite a bit,but the market is sometimes kind of stupid,if you know what I mean.There is this one company called Hagerty that specializes in low-mileage vehicles.I think all you have to do is agree on a value and however many miles at a given time you plan to drive your baby,and I think you'll be set.I hope maybe I gave you a nudge in the right direction,but if not,keep trying and I'm sure you'll get all you need.Anyway,God Bless and congratulations.Oh,how do you feel about green???I have a 96 LT-1 with going on 108000 miles and has never given me ANY trouble at all!!!Polo Green Metallic,baby!!!! Good luck!!

Thanks for the info - I have to find an insurance co that will cover it for a very limited amt of miles per year and will allow my 19 year old son to sign a waiver that he will never drive it. The insurance with him on our policy is mind-boggling! I'll check out Hagerty. Did you buy your 96 new? You've obviously had a lot of fun with it with 108,000 miles on it! Ours is strictly a Sunday drive car - preferrably with the top down!
