Is it possible to get insurance on a vehicle that is going through probate court?

Here's the situation: My grandmother passed away last month and at the time of her death, she owned a home and 2 cars. My uncle has been named the executor of her estate and has asked me to go out and take care of her estate in Arizona until he can get out there in January. And right now, we have her entire estate including her cars going through probate court. What I would like to know is would it be possible for me to get insurance on one of her cars so that I can use it while I'm down there?

PS: For those of you who don't know, Arizona state law requires all vehicles driven on the road to be insured.

Were they not insured before she died? And is the insurance, if there is any, still in effect? Your uncle, as executor of the estate, can get them insured if they are not now insured. The insurance won't lapse if they are now insured. Look in the glove compartment for the insurance card and registration. See when it expires. Then, get written permission from your uncle to drive them.

Yes, but you will need the executors permission to drive it.
You can insure any car, it is your money.
