Classic car insurance from a 17 year old? less than a grand (VW Beetle)?

Hi all, Im 17 a VW enthusiast and just passed my driving test. I'm not saying im going to be any different to the statistics but im not a racer at all, lack of experience is still an issue though Guys preimiems are double girls and yet i think its possible to get insurance ive heard of people who have just wonder from which company? Im after insurance for a VW type 1 1300 beetle or a VW split screen camper for a 17 year old. As anyone who has tried getting a quote for a 17 year old boy its going to be £800 for cheap 1L car, 900 for a 1.25L Fiesta or 1,400 for a 1.4L Zetec. So im after insurance for less than £1000 has anyone manged it for a classic car? and where? The RAC quoted 1,100 and then went to ask about it and then they refused had several quote for a 1.6L beetle (due to age and slowness) of 1,400 but would like under a 1000 geico is USA i think.. :-( sorry should of said UK based Hi thanks for the directline idea sadly they wont insur any car thats older than about 1990 ish.. :-( And dam americans! lol im so gelious of you !

I am in Connecticut, USA. I am 16 years old. I drive a 1973 Volkswagen Beetle, completely stock. It is insured for $6700 with absolute full coverage, everything you can imagine, including unlimited mileage. I pay $316 a year.
