Jay Leno is a fan of Operation Ignite



April 02, 2011

In a recent video on Jay Leno’s classic car website, Jay’s Garage, Jay had a chat with Hagerty CEO McKeel Hagerty about our youth program, Operation Ignite!, and our Youth Reporter Contest. Turns out, he thinks it’s pretty cool. In fact, he even offered to hang out with the winner. So not only will one lucky kid go to classic car events around the country all expenses paid, the winner (and his parent or guardian) will also get to meet Jay Leno and check out his amazing garage.

Do you know a kid who likes cars and would be great in front of a camera? Make sure they know about the Operation Ignite! Youth Reporter Contest. Our submission period closes on May 1 – so enter today!

    All is not lost with our youth. In 2009 my son of 15 years, told me he was intereseted in a musle car. I asked him to be more specific. He researched musle cars and informed me that he would like a "1967 Shelby GT500 KR Interceptor Fastback." At this point, I realized I had not given him a price range. After some negoiation, he settled on a 1968 GT390 Fastback. The car was delivered on Labor Day of last year. He has rebuilt the differential, added headers and an exhaust system which he helped weld. His goal is to return the car to it original condition (except for the headers). His sister, classmates and friends are now interested in old cars.

  13. Rubens Insurance rates????my isucranne is way too high I have isucranne with a nationwide company .and I have to have full coverage because I'm financing the vehicle. My question is..where can I go to find some cheaper isucranne? I heard that smaller companies around where you live usually offer cheaper rates? Is this true?
