Thanks for the insurance tips! I was thinking about renter's insurance and didn't know if I wanted to spring for it, but it sounds like I do. I may be back with more questions about that.

One other thing I should add is that I'm interested in LoJack and VIN etching because if my car gets lifted... I want to get it back. And I mean, I really really really want to get it back. I have sort of an emotional attachment to this car and they don't make them anymore. I realize it's already a little crazy that I've had it fixed up and am getting ready to ship it across the country and all, but that's just sort of illustrative of how I want to have it until it sputters it's last *sput* and fix it up as many times as necessary (at least until I'm a grown up and have a nice expensive car - then it can live in my garage for old times sake).

With that in mind, will springing for both VIN etching and LoJack be downright silly? Seems like it's reasonable enough to me, but then I don't really know a whole lot about LoJack yet except that it tends to get stolen cars recovered a lot more than not having it. The VIN etching, on the other hand, seems like a good deterrent and another way to recover the parts of my dear car, should she be taken apart and sold in an unfortunate incident. Am I over-thinking this? The better question is, am I over-thinking this for someone who really wants to keep this specific car?
