"Give
The Customer a Great Value ! "
You Really Do...
Get Exactly What You Pay For!
Like shopping
for a fine bottle of wine...you can buy 'rot gut' Thunderboid
or you can buy a Vintage Merlot. We ask you to understand that
we go to a great deal of effort to seek out the very best value
that money can buy. If a car isn't absolutely 'dead nuts' and
we are aware of it, we will tell you up front. We also know some
dealers mark their cars way over the asking price and then
discount them to make the buyer feel like he or she 'got a deal'.
We don't play that game.
What is a classic car worth? Like an oil painting, it is worth
what the individual decides to pay to become connected
to it. Whether it's a yacht, a house or an oil painting, it's
just fiberglass on water, cement blocks on dirt, or oil on canvas
until the individual becomes 'connected'.
Some of our cars will 'seem' overpriced but, it's all relative
to condition and the market. Unless you have actually flown all
over the country shopping or understand the quality & variety
of the cars we offer, please don't arbitrarily pre-judge
our cars or prices.
Evaluation Books: They make an excellent guide,
but "books do not
buy cars- people do".
In some cases, the books cannot follow the market fast enough
and do not fairly indicate the current market of the "Hot"
Classics. We try very hard to narrow our sites to sell 'special'
( heavily optioned ) cars in excellent condition. I think you
will find physically comparing our cars Nationwide, we offer a
superb value.
Our
Format
1. Buyers need
to realize: there isn't a "wholesale" source for these
fine classics. We care out there searching just like you.
What we have is the advantage of having the time to
shop 24 / 7, and being able to source an available
car way before most buyers even pick up the magazine
or newspaper it's advertised in.
2. We use several
professional surveyors who go to great lengths to drive / fly-search,
survey and locate the best cars we can find all across in the
Country. We then have them shipped here from all four corners
. Some are even 'updated' (re-restored) on arrival.
3. For the most
part, we use two Nationally Recognized Evaluation Guides
to price the cars fairly. If you are 'surprised' by some of today's
current prices...welcome to reality. Classic cars are a
better investment than the Stock Market or your 401k Plan. Just
read about it in Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Forbes
or Time Magazine.
For those of
you still living in the past...that have been searching for years
for that elusive 'Barn Car' ( the one "the kid left in the
garage when he left for Vietnam")... For the guy who still believes
he can buy a frame-off, matching number 1967 GTO, 4-Speed Convertible
for $38,000 or a mid-year Corvette Convertible L-79 for $68,000-
God Love Ya - Goferit
! We're not saying
some guy out there isn't living in a cave. If you have
the time to spend... hundred's of man hours looking, and can take
time off from work to fly and waste airfare on hunting down those
'air cars'...please don't let us stop you. But,
for now, we took all the work out of finding what we fell
is the "perfect car"...the car that may be- the car
of your dreams. Sorry but, we can't do this without making
a profit. We are truly attempting to 'do it right"
and offer really great values in collectible cars. We only ask
you to respect that. Thanks for considering Classic Dreamcars
for you next purchase...and, thanks for taking the time to read
all this. We are just trying to keep you from wasting time. I
hope we can make your dream come true....
