The sign: “Collector Car Sale” is one that gets all of our hearts pumping a little faster. When we see this term in a classified ad in the newspaper or on a website there is always a mad scramble to be the first caller. How many times have you heard the stories about having just missed that 1963 split window coupe that sat in a barn and sold for a few thousand?

I have never really found a classic car that I did not like. Yes I know the Edsel was a bomb but compare it to a new Kia and I would prefer the Edsel.

That is a dramatic statement but I had to drive a Kia for a few days and I felt like I was in an aluminum foil car the sheet metal was so thin. Instead of a thud when the door closed it went twang. The can of beans I ate last night had thicker sides on it. The engine was fuel efficient to the point that it could not get out of its own way. I won’t admit I was scared but there were times when an 18-wheeler was next to me on the highway and I was a little uncomfortable.

When you see a collector car sale advertised and it is a newer Viper or a Shelby Cobra you had better find some way to buy it and hold on to it for several years as these cars will become the classics of tomorrow. There are banks and finance companies that specialize in collector car financing and will give you a good rate. A couple of classic car financing companies that we know of and suggest you look at are hagerty.com and woodsidecredit.com.

When you find these advertisers you will do well to contact them directly as the reason they provide special rates for collector car financing is that they know you will take good care of your baby and that if you are in this field of collecting than you are no doubt a responsible person and a good risk for them.

Along with financing you will need to have special car collector insurance as this is very specialized also. The average automotive insurance will not be sufficient to cover your new ride but these specialty insurance companies have studied the risks and they come up with plans that will be perfect for your needs. Some companies that we can refer you to that have car collector insurance are; hagerty.com, heacockclassic.com, lelandwest.com and americancollectors.com.

Here in the states we are coming into the cold weather season and many of you will be putting your collector cars up for the winter and you will be making plans all winter long about what you will want to do to your car for the coming car shows and events next summer.

You had better keep watching out for the collector car sale ads all winter long because some of the best deals to be found are during the off-season periods that other collectors might not be looking for.

Please let our readers know when you purchase a new classic and we will publish pictures of it and your story if it meets our requirements.
