I'd like to build a kit car to replace my current car. I've heard insurance rates are different for kit cars. How much will it cost to insure a kit car?

classic car insurance
. As classic or collectible cars are worth more than their
actual cash value
, you have to insure them for what they’re worth today. With an agreed value policy, you’d receive that amount if your car is a total loss after an accident.
