Thursday, February 24, 2011

Finding specialty insurance coverage for your prized collector automobile will now be easier as Carlisle Events and Heacock Classic have formed a partnership for the 2011 show season. Heacock Classic will have a presence at all ten events held at the Carlisle PA Fairgrounds and will be the Official Classic Car Insurance Company for the shows. Heacock Classic’s goal is to provide secure, affordable insurance to those individuals who are passionate about the hobby of restoring or collecting automobiles.

Florida-based Heacock Classic, a division of Heacock Insurance Group, Inc., is a full-service independent insurance agency which has been in business since 1922. “Carlisle Events is an industry leader for automotive enthusiast shows with an enormous following of collector car owners,” noted company President Ford W. Heacock III. “We’ve built our collector car insurance business on personal relationships made over many years in the car hobby. Carlisle provides a perfect venue for us to continue engaging with our clients on a personal level in the field. We’re confident our new partnership with Carlisle will be a win-win for both of us,” added Heacock.

Attendees who obtain a policy from Heacock Classic can have their coverage customized to define how the vehicle may be used and in some cases, who will operate it. Heacock Classic also offers programs for racing cars, sports and exotic cars, antiques and classics as well as museum collections, making them an excellent insurance partner for all shows Carlisle shows held annually at Central Pennsylvania’s Automotive Capital.
Heacock also encourages collectors to use their cars for pleasure.
