For a 15 year old car, it might not make sense to carry full insurance, and go with liability only. If the book value of the car is $3K, and you have a $1000 deductible, the expected payout of the insurance wouldn't be that much if it were to ever be needed anyway. Saving the extra cost of the premiums might be a better bet.
