What We Buy

Most people picture a '65 Mustang or a '69 Camaro when they hear "classic." We buy those. We also buy the 1980s and 1990s cars that are becoming classics right now — there is no year cutoff here.

  • Pristine & show-quality cars

    Restored, concours, or a well-kept original you have owned for decades.

  • Project cars

    Started, half-finished, or stalled. Parts in boxes are fine.

  • Barn finds

    Sitting since the seventies under a tarp in a shed? That is our favorite call.

  • Running or non-running

    No engine, seized engine, flat tires, dead battery — we bring the truck.

  • Muscle cars, trucks & specialty cars

    Camaros, Mustangs, Chevelles, pickups, convertibles, sports cars.

  • '50s through '90s — no year cutoff

    A 5.0 Mustang or a '92 Viper counts just as much as a '65 fastback.

Makes & Models We Buy

These are examples, not a closed list. If your car is not named here, it almost certainly still qualifies — call and ask.

Common Questions

Do you buy classic cars that don't run?
Yes. We buy classic cars that don't run. A dead battery, a seized engine, no engine at all, or a car that hasn't moved in fifteen years are all fine. We bring a flatbed and load it ourselves.
What if my car needs a full restoration?
That is normal for us. We buy project cars, stalled restorations, cars with rust, cars with the interior in boxes, and cars that were taken apart and never put back together. Nothing about a project car disqualifies it.
Do you handle the smog check?
Yes. We take care of the smog requirement as part of completing the sale. You do not need to get the car smogged before calling us.
What about the DMV paperwork and title transfer?
We handle the DMV paperwork and the title transfer. We do this constantly, so the forms are routine for us. If the title is missing, lost, or in a deceased relative's name, call us anyway — there is almost always a legal path forward.
How do you pay?
Cash, in person, at the time of pickup. You are paid before the car leaves.
Do I need to get it running or cleaned up first?
No. We buy as-is. Do not spend money on repairs, detailing, or parts before selling. Leave it exactly where it sits.
