AARP Automobile Insurance - The Hartford Insurance Company - unable to insure Corvette

I am 64 years old and the proud owner of a 1985 Corvette. I have been discriminated against because I am a "Corvette" owner.

Recently I received a mailg from the AARP Automobile insurance program from The Hartford Insurance Company. They promised me a savings of $332.00 per year on my auto insurance. So I called 1-800-675-3447 to signup for savings.

When they were told I have a Corvette (driven only 3000 miles per year) they said they could not insure me!! I have not had accident in over 25 years, no tickets, no nothing. I could own anything else but a Corvette. Now that is discrimination!!!
