Anyone know if you have to have a current insurance policy running to get a classic insurance on another vehicle. Im trying to work out if it's possible to just use the vintage vehicle.. i guess it's not that simple but worth the question..

To get an actual classic policy you need to either have your own policy on a regular car, or be a named driver on a spouse's car. At least that's what I discovered when I was in the same boat as you. First Ireland (and maybe others) will insure your classic as a main car, but the cost will be closer to a regular policy than a classic one.

I know it's daunting - but there's a lot of info in this thread:

Have you bought yet? Always good to check first. Also watch out if you are below 25.

G'luck.
