Today, I had yet another very positive experience while placing an Ad on Classiccars.com. Their Customer service Person Joy, was very informative explaining how to "SAFELY" proceed while selling my Collector cars. She was very Genuine and explained she was there, if you needed additional help. That just doesn't happen everywhere. Additionally , You just cant BEAT the fact that they RUN THE AD UNTIL SOLD! Others take $$$$ Every other month. Thank-you Joy and Classiccars.com!!!! The ONLY place to sell your Collector car!
I just sold my 1965 Ford Thunderbird Landau. My entire experience with classiccars.com was great. I was able to advertise for an unlimited amount of time for a very reasonable rate. Any upsale stuff was minimal and zero pressure. I will absolutely use classiccars.com again. With the classicc car market being in a bit of a slump, I would recommend the unlimited ad time.
Overall I like classic.com. They have market info to help price a vehicle to sell, and your ad stays up as long as it takes to sell it. They tell you how many views you've had and how many times it has been included in search results. Its taking a little longer than I had hoped to sell my vehicle but it is what it is. I do like that it shows past sales and what they went for. I don't like that when you see 15 past sales, it says when they sold but not how long they were listed for. Makes it look like these things are just flying off the shelves. Maybe they are. But, overall, I like what I see. And it's a good resource for collectors to buy and sell. If you are a private seller with an old car you have no need for, just plan on sitting on it a little while once you post your ad unless you don't mind letting it go for a bit less than what it comes up for in the comp sales prices. (And to be fair its only been posted for 14 days.) I can imagine ladder trucks are tough to sell anywhere.
Been trying to get some info from a Dealer through Classic Cars.com but no reply. Either the car does not exist or has been sold. Classic cars need to validate that the cars on their website are legit and available.

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to review ClassicCars.com. Each listing includes direct contact information for the respective dealership or auction house, allowing you to reach out by phone rather than submitting your information and waiting for an email reply. The contact seller area is more for private seller listings since we do not offer any of our private seller's personal information.
With thousands of vehicles available on our site, individual dealerships manage their own listings and are responsible for updating or removing them once a vehicle is sold.
If you do not receive a response after attempting to contact a dealership by phone and email, please feel free to reach out to us directly—we’re always happy to assist. Kindly note that dealerships will respond using their company email addresses rather than through our website, so we recommend checking your spam or junk folder if you haven’t seen a reply.
Kind regards,
ClassicCars.com Customer Support
As a user, I find this site constantly redirects to very shady website

Horrible! First, this site barely generates any leads for dealers who pay them monthly. Second, Greg Fresquez just isn't very good as his job. He also needs to lose the attitude and do his job as a "Dealer Manager" instead of changing the subject and making excuses, trying to blame others for his own errors. He doesn't even deserve one star!
Lots of exposure to possible buyers and communication easy and private, if you wish.

Site is popular among classic car and truck enthusiasts.
Lots of potential buyers searching the site led to a lot of interest in my vehicle and eventually selling it.

Hello Mr Geromini,
After reaching out to the sellers you were waiting to hear from, the dealership said that they have gotten no response back from you and one of the private sellers said that you are planning on going to look at his vehicle soon.
As a listing platform that doesn't have a hand in the sales or negotiations of the vehicles listed on Classiccars.com, there isn't much that we can do about seller response times, etc. It is all up to them how and when they respond, and how they conduct negotiations.
Good luck with your search.
Kind regards,
ClassicCars.com Customer Support
My listing generated one lead in 90 days. Sold my car on FB marketplace in 5 days after listing. Maybe an 07 Mustang GT Convertible w/ manual trans isn't "classic" enough.

Hello Mr Spann,
Congratulations on selling your vehicle, even if the lead was not from ClassicCars.com. Any sale is a good sale!
Kind regards,

Didn't get much action.one inquiry in 8 months. In fact two inquiries in a year. Couldn't open emails from the company so I called for help and was told everything was working when it wasn't.
The ease of posting my vehicle for sale was incredible. Easy to follow instructions, and a website that actually works made it simple and stress free.
For me however, my vehicle actually sold locally without any interest from buyers on Classic Cars.
Thanks anyway. I will use your service again in the future should the need arise.
Ultimately I did not sell it on ClassicCars.com but they did get me some interested parties and when I sell my cars that is all I can ask for! Great people to work with and I just posted my 53 Ford F100 with them- so I believe in the process!
My wife and I sold 2 classic mustangs on this site within a week. The site is very popular and professional in their appearance and ability to communicate with their clients. Thank you so very much
Great customer service, the reps were very helpful in wording the specifics of the vehicle. The car finally sold after a few months on the market. Communication with potential buyers is sometimes difficult. Overall average results
