few pros and cons TA- handles better, better stereo, looks meaner, lower miles, airbags/abs ect T-Type- faster (11s vs low 13s), cheaper insurance ($300 for the year vs $85 a month), sounds meaner, sleeper , no OBD inspection I figure both are similar on gas mileage as well as value and collectibility/rarity ---

Stick with what you have. And don’t assume because he’s been able to jump through all the hoops to get classic car insurance means you’ll be able to. 1. Extremely strict on driving record. I got turned down for a cell phone ticket by one company. That was all I had on my record. 2. Lots of requirements about your other cars. Must show proof that all licensed drivers in the household have reliable DDs because they don’t want you DDing the classic. 3. Age requirements. I had to sign a statement that no one under 25 would drive it. 4. Storage requirements. I had to send pictures of my garage. 5. Some have restrictions on how much you can drive each year. ---
