******* Serious Inquiries Only********
This is an exceptional vehicle offered for sale to a decisive, qualified buyer. We are a high-volume showroom dedicated to moving quality inventory, and our time is reserved exclusively for those ready to complete a transaction. We have enough local serious & repeat customers and prefer this type of transaction since someone 5 states away needs too much convincing/hand holding to purchase. If you are someone in a different state and cannot purchase site unseen we understand your apprehension. We are easy to work with but are just asking for you to value our time- No indecisive “time wasters” please . . We welcome a productive discussion to go over any final purchase details & try to assist you as best as we can but cannot spend valuable time trying to convince you of going out of your comfort zone and buying site unseen.
The Terms of Sale
If you have ever sold a classic vehicle, you understand the influx of "tire kickers" and "researchers" that dominate the market. To ensure a professional experience for serious parties, we adhere to the following protocol:
No "Sight Unseen" Debates: We are not here to convince you to buy a car over the phone. If you are not comfortable with sight-unseen purchases, we welcome you to schedule an in-person inspection at our dealership it is that simple.
Appointments Required: We do not provide "informational tours." If you are not ready to set a firm appointment to view the vehicle in person with the intent to purchase, please contact us when you are ready to make sure said vehicle is still available .
Media Requests: We provide professional-grade media; if that is insufficient for your needs, an in-person inspection is your best recourse. We will offer a video call to any serious buyers who are ready to purchase.
Redundant Questions: If the answer is in the description, it will not be addressed again via email or text. We manage a high volume of inquiries and prioritize those that demonstrate they have read the listing.
Bottom Line
We are here to sell cars, not engage in senseless conversation or provide free education for researchers.
