“Our Family Serving Your Family”

If you are covered by a typical insurance policy, you may be paying too much and paying for the wrong kind of coverage.

Standard automobile policies may not offer Agreed Value Coverage, so in the event of a loss, you will be offered a settlement amount (Actual Cash Value) less than what it will cost to replace your “pride and joy”. There’s more, standard auto policies don’t always give a price discount for the “care, custody and control” you give your collector automobile.

In short, standard auto policies do not reflect an understanding of how fine collector cars are maintained and enjoyed.

However, we at Farris Insurance Agency Inc. can offer you an insurance program that really demonstrates the value and the uniqueness of your vintage or classic car(s). We can give you a better solution by working with experts who are collectors themselves. Grundy Worldwide, Hagerty Insurance and American Collectors, have been insuring these special vehicles for almost 50 years. We provide peace of mind protection to over 4000 car collector individuals and families.

Program Features: • Coverage for individual cars and collections.

• Agreed Value Coverage.

• High liability limits.

• Unlimited “hobby” mileage.

• $0 deductible, NC has $50 deductibles.

• Prompt, fair claim service.

• Competitively priced.

• Excellent customer service. We have 30+ years writing collectors and collections.

It’s time to save some money, get a great rate on your collector car and have the “peace of mind” that comes from a job well done!

Stacey David is the person that every car guy wants in the garage, helping out on their project.

With decades of experience working in restoration and hot rod shops, and over 20 years on national television on two hit TV shows, Stacey David has been showing people how to build cool cars and trucks for a long time. His mechanical abilities and fabrication skills have made him one of the most trusted and respected custom car builders in the world today. His incredible work and positive influence have earned him many awards and accolades from the automotive industry over the years, and he continues to work hand in hand with the OEM’s and aftermarket to keep new vehicles and parts in front of the gearhead public. Also well known for building wild, trend-setting custom vehicles like Copperhead, The V8 Interceptor, and Sgt. Rock, Stacey has

inspired legions of gearheads all across the nation to “get out there and build something”. We are honored to have him here at the Pigeon Forge Rod Run this spring.
