I am currently in the process of putting a large amount of money in my 91 240SX SE. The car books for like 2500 bucks. What can I do for insurance to get covered for the amount that I am putting in? What do you guys and gals do for insurance to get your money back if stolen or totally lost due to crach or whatever? I don't want to put 10 grand in my car and then if I would get in an accident get like 2500 from the insurance company? Screw that. Anywyas if anybody uses some specialty company, please give me name and or web address or if they know anything else I could do. Thanks very much.

Here's the problem with fixing up an older car with a low value.

What you need to do is get an insurance policy and get comprehensive/collision coverage and add "special equipment".  You can't insure the car as a kit car (as you would with a skyline from Motrex), so you need to insure it as what it is, and add "special equipment" to cover your investments (if you can call them that).

I use my 21st century and love them.  I don't have any special equipment additions (although they give you $1000 as part of your standard policy), but they have EXCELLENT service, I can pay over the web, and their rates are second to none.
