front plate We are suppose to run with a front plate in NJ, but I do not. Actually, I don't even know where the second plate is......

I use Hess (Premium 93). Have a station a couple miles from my house. Prices are almost always lower then anyone else around. I use it for my wife's car too (87 though, not the 93). Never had a problem. When I am not near home, I stick with the major names, Mobil, Exxon, BP. Just an aside...

I couldn't agree more! I do not use a front plate, and so far I haven't been stopped for it. But if I do, and if I get a ticket, I will gladly pay it. Just doesn't look right with a plate on there, IMHO. Chris

the other option is look for another classic car insurance company that allows more miles. I know one company I looked at had a 5,000 mile limit, of course now I can't remember who that is. May be worth it in the long run. But if you are in the business, it may not make that much of a...

just watch if you had agreed value on the classic policy, you lost that when you switched. So, if you total the car, you get book value, which may be significantly less..... or so I am told.

welcome and congrats! Enjoy the vette! From one NJ guy to another a bit of advice... Watch the bumps on Route 1... some of those are killers!! :)

thanks for the help guys!

similiar question I would just like to get some opinions on this issue as well. What would a fair "agreed value" be for an 86 coupe totally original, in excellent condition with 11,000 miles on it? Just want to see if i am in the right neighborhood.... Thanks

I had a similiar issue. I was on the highway and a truck kicked up a rock.... it hit the windshield, but did not break it. It did produce a white mark on the windshield. It was smooth to the touch, but the mark was noticable. I took it to three glass shops and no one would touch it. They...

I agree

Man those photos hurt!! I am sorry for your loss. And that on top of everything else. I hope things work out for you. Good luck! Chris

In a word.... Beautiful!

Went for a ride down the shore today, found a gas station with Premium at $3.26. I was at just under 1/2 a tank, so I pulled in and filled up. $37.00. In my area it is $3.49, so my little road trip saved me a couple bucks, and I got 26 MPG on the road (50 mile trip one way). I am not going...

Well, I went on my first extended ride with my 86. I had to drive to the in laws in PA and decided to cruise with the top off and see how she does. Before this, I merely went for local rides, or a quick hop down the shore. This was a two hour and forty five minute ride (each way, done in one...

Is this the radiator grille bracket? I replaced my front spoiler and noticed this was broken. Just want to confirm it's identity. Thanks.
