Why have your Custom Vehicle appraised?
- Inform your insurer of the nature and quality of the modifications.
- Indicate a realistic current-market value or a replacement cost report.
- Document through photographs.
- Indicate modifications to body style and structure, mechanical changes, custom interior, and stereo installs.
In essence, a vehicle is valued on the following factors:
- The quality of its overall condition and the workmanship
- Is it a rare car that has enhanced market value because it is rare
- If it is rare and desirable is there documentation to support its originality (sometimes referred to as provenance)
- Market value, is it desirable? Are there buyers? (whether a small or large group)

Custom Car Insurance Tip
When discussing the insurance of your custom vehicle with your agent or insurance company, we suggest that you be clear that the type of policy and coverage is appropriate to your needs. The difference between a 19A and any other policy can be significant in the event of a loss.
A professionally prepared and presented appraisal or valuation report indicates to your insurance company the condition and current market value of your vehicle. This is a foundation for the settlement of any future dispute involving your vehicle. It also clearly sets a value in the case of a total loss.
