I went through this on my Jeep with a couple of companies, but couldn't get any to agree on a value. Finally I insured it with my regular company on a replacement value policy. My agent said that the likelilhood of it being totaled or stolen without recovery is pretty slim, and they would repair any lesserr damage for whatever it cost.

I have a lot of notes and correspondence with the agent and just hope I never have to get into clanging heads together over what it's worth. I gave a lot of pictures to the agent and also sent copies of correspondence with a company building stainless steel TJ bodies, so I should be able to establish its value if I have to.

i went through that when i insured my Harley. I finally went with progressive, and they didnt argue with me at all on a stated value.
