If they damage it, or if the shop catches on fire, etc. their insurance will cover your car.

That said, if it were my car, I would also insure it myself. That way, if something does happen, and you don't like the way their insurance is handling things, you can turn it over to your own insurer. Lots of collector car companies offer coverage for projects/cars undergoing restoration. It's cheap, too.


Good advice wink
