6219_Rules Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 Kind of makes you wonder who HE knows, don't it?? <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />At least they are cool about paying if a drunk punk totals your baby at midnight on the 4th of July...and other acts of God!Ha! Just hope your car cover is radiation proof! I wonder what UV rating that would be??? <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave@Moon Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 Did you happen to check the earnings estimates of most insurance companies in the fourth quarter of 2001? Somethin' musta' happen'd to scare 'em! The world is a different place these days. Hopefully the nirvana we're building in Iraq will fix everything.

Restorer32 Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 I think you'll find those exclusions in almost any auto or homeowner's policy. Been there for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BruceW Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 I remember when we bought our house in 1991, seeing a clause in the homeowner's policy that prohibited the homeowner from storing ballistic missiles in the garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Gariepy Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 if your car gets totalled due to a nuclear explosion i think your problems are much worse than if you can collect on your insurance <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DeSoto Frank Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 I'm sure the exclusion doesn't apply to an Antique which is actively participating in a Show or Parade.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DeSoto Frank Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 Dave...Not at all... It's a reference to the 1960's Stanley Kubrick movie "Dr. Strangelove" (or "How I learned to stop worrying and love the Bomb")...This is a great, great movie...I highly recommend a double feature, starting with a dead-serious movie called "Failsafe" (starring Henry Fonda), then followed by "Strangelove"(which loosely parodies "Failsafe").In "Dr. Strangelove", Peter Sellars (Inspector Clouseau) plays three different chracters, ranging from a British RAF officer, to the President of the United States, to an ex-Nazi rocket scientist, repatriated to the U.S....In the movie, Sellar's RAF Colonel Mandrake is confronted with a U.S. Air Force General (Jack D. Ripper, played deliciously by Sterling Hayden) gone frothing mad, who triggers nuclear Armageddon, but who maintains that "the greatest threat against our way of life, Mandrake, is fluoridation of the water supply"...that's why the General drank "only rainwater and pure grain alcohol..."Hence my comment...Other now famous actors to watch for in "Dr. Strangelove" include:Slim Pickens ("cowboy"Squadron commander, who rides "the Bomb" down to the Kremlin)James Earl JonesGeorge C. Scott (General Buck C. Turgidson)Peter Bull(Not really trying to support a political agenda here, I'm merely suggesting it's a fun piece of cinema from the days of the Cuban Missile Crisis...)

tomchaney Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 I've always felt it was a good idea to store one's nuclear weapons in a separate area from one's collector cars. I keep my gas cans and garden pesticides in there also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 really,the truth in this post is that the insurance companies use to cover against terrorism. But, after 9/11, they do not.It's consider an act of war... (unless you own the US Cole and you are Bill Clinton)The radioactive contamination is the kicker. If your car is within a 100 miles of a dirty bomb, it could be totaled, and you lose.I can see the ad in Hemmings in 2404, one owner, low miles, just out of 400 years of storage. Rad levels below average.Same goes for your 80k BMW, or your house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hal Davis (MODEL A HAL) Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 We always assume that our property will be destroyed and the insurance and bank records will remain intact. What if our property remains intact and the bank records do not? Can we stop paying our mortgage and car payments? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
