HELP in Indiana

HI

I put money down on a bus yesterday and today I can not find any body to insure my bus conversion-rv.
I have read every thing I can find so far with no luck.
I checked with State Farm, Geico, GMAC, two local companies that deal with several others with no luck. My agent at farm bureau and he is still trying.
Every one says the conversion has to be done by a company not me.
ANY IDEAS??????????????????????????????????????????

Help. If I do not find something in the next two days then I will have to cancel the deal.

As a rv-motorhome. I think as a truck it will cost me more.

Re: HELP in Indiana

i have a clean record. the bus is still a bus. I have a call into the ISP on what has to come off to change the title to RV.
My Farm Bureau agent is to tell me today if I can go through them. I just need to get it home and then I can get it changed. SO maybe I need bus insurance for a month then change it to rv. every one seems to have a problem with it being home converted.

Re: HELP in Indiana

The angle I took with my insurance agent was to get an insurance rider (liability only) on my existing policies for three days to get the bus home. That made me legal in KY so long as no one was riding with me. While it's being converted I'm not covering auto and when done I will get it titled as an RV and then insure as a recreation vehicle. Good thing is they didn't charge me for the three days of coverage.

Re: HELP in Indiana

my farm bureau agent just called and I can insure it as a over 1 ton truck for private use until I get it converted. I have to paint it and get the sign off and all the school stuff off.

After it is converted. has a bathroom and running water, cooking area and take pictures of it then I can insure it as as an RV.
.
WOW what a worry. Now all I have to do is get it in a week and a half
Thanks a lot for the input.
