SNEAK PEAK! My Classic Car Films a Special Feature from Jim Grundy's Garage
Grundy Insurance has sponsored SPEED’s hit television show My Classic Car for many years; and, car enthusiasts regularly recognize Jim Grundy from the insurance segments that air during the show that is hosted by car-enthusiast extraordinaire, Dennis Gage.
Just recently, Dennis came out to Jim Grundy’s garage to take a couple of Grundy's vintage race cars out on the road and to talk about the historical significance behind the outstanding cars in his personal collection. The television crew caught footage of Dennis and Jim zipping around the Bucks County, Pa. in a 1915 Mercer and his 1912 National Speed Car.

Vilma Smathers, a Grundy Insurance agent from Riverview, Mich., says that while she may be located closer to other collector car insurance companies, she chooses Grundy (based just north of Philadelphia) when providing her customers with Agreed Value insurance policies for specialty vehicles.
In reality, she let the customers choose Grundy.
Vilma says that, in the past, when customers applied for coverage for their collector cars, she gave them price quotes and coverage details from two companies; and, she let the customers choose.
“I ran quotes from both Grundy and Hagerty,” says Vilma. “Ninety-nine percent of the time, they would go with Grundy Insurance. Because of the price and other features, they chose Grundy. Actually, it’s more like 99.5 percent of the time. They have always chosen Grundy. Grundy offers more and has better coverage for less money. Customers appreciate that. And, I do, too!”
Because her customers were consistent with their choices, Vilma chose to use only Grundy Insurance.

Car enthusiasts across the country will celebrate the collector car hobby on “Collector Car Appreciation Day” – July 8, 2011.
The history of the hobby, as we know it today, started when Jim Grundy’s grandfather, Sam Baily, rescued a 1909 Pierce-Arrow from a scrap yard in Philadelphia, in the early 1940’s. Many collectors are familiar with the early years of antique automobile restoration and preservation; however, for those who are not, we offer you some of the details about the start of the hobby.
We want you to understand the importance of properly insuring your collector vehicles, and we know that insurance lingo isn't always easy to understand. Through our Insurance 101 Series, we will focus on a different insurance topic each month. You don't need to learn your lessons the hard way.
