Old Car Lovers: This is working out nicely!

So I started a antique & classic auto buyer/seller representation service a while back and have made several sellers and new owners very happy in the last 3 days.

Put a 53k original mile '69 F100 in the hands of Dallas, TX buyer Saturday; a '56 Chevy Belair in the hands of a NC buyer yesterday; and a '64 Fairlane Sport Coupe in the hands of a SC buyer this morning.

Working a '56 98 Holiday Coupe right now for transport to KS.

There are some hits and misses along the way but the kick is getting to meet sellers and buyers, hear their stories and drive some really great vehicles.

So you are charging a finders fee? Sellers fee? Not sure how you represent.

Representing sellers and buyers, do full pre-purchase inspections and appraisals. American iron 1958-1976, no motorcycles.

Sounds like a cool job, Brian. If you run into a guy with a green 62 Imperial out your way, ask him to respond to my text.

Sounds like an awesome job for retirees. Good to hear your making sellers and buyers very happy while enjoying it at the same time.


All the best going forward

Is the car near Charlotte? Can you give me some more details on it? If I see it at AF in April I'll tell him Tiger says call or else...

That would be a very cool job to have. Good to hear you've found homes for some classic iron.
