After a bit of back and forth, I was able to get specialty car insurance on wedged !
I'm limited to 3,000 miles a year, which is plenty for me. I was a bit unmotivated since I couldn't drive the thing. I've got a vacuum leak between the upper plenum and lower runners of the intake. I'm going to make a gasket and try it. If that doesn't hold up, I'll weld the upper to the lower. Once that's situated, I'll finish up the A/C system.
