SUGGESTIONS & TIPS

.We always recommend to buy a classic car instead of a modern car. Classic cars are always a good investment, specially nowadays. When buying a car, you can get a low retail project, an average retail value car, or a fully restored vehicle. Sometimes it´s more interesting to get a projec which requires a full restoration than buying an average retail value vehicle, unless you are able to spend a lot of money buying a full restored car from a well reputated professional. Restore a classic car is not an easy task, you will need time, patience, knowledge and experience. Labor hours are not few, and sometimes you may get stucked along the way, however most of the times passion is stronger enough to get through. Before buying a project, contact parts suppliers to check if they may provide all parts you need and cost, including shipment and taxes. Depending on the model it may be very easy to find parts (Mustang, Corvette, Beetle, …) or very difficult and expensive (Lincoln, Packard, Cadillac, …) If buying a Rolls Royce or Bentley you better be sure that car works perfectly, otherwise parts are extremely expensive and not all mechanics are qualified to work with them. When buying a car from USA make the deal through a professional. Customs, shipping, and taxes are not an easy task. Unless you have a contact in the Estates or have inspected the auto by yourself, better buy from a well reputated dealer. If you are buying online better paying 6000$ extra than buying from a private seller and received anything or a crappy car. Big companies usuallly provide a 4k video with engine and car running, and lots of high resolution pics. Risk is high and waiting up to two months for shipping overseas is endless. When buying an already imported car that has not been registered yet, check DUA (or whatever the custom duty is called in your country) is already paid. Ask the shipping company for a copy of an insurance certificate. When buying from a dealer or shop, make sure that professional VAT or IVA number is included in the invoice.
