Colin's Classic Auto: A Bring a Trailer Local Partner

The Experience of CCA + The Power of BaT: A Winning Combination

Colin Comer has long been a renowned expert in the hobby. With over forty years of restoring everything from pre-war Alfa Romeos to 427 Cobras, over thirty years of being a collector car dealer, a published author of eight best-selling automotive books, over twenty years of contributions to your favorite automotive magazines, and a Rolodex filled with connections most could only dream of, Colin is no Johnny-come-lately to the hobby.

Under his handle of “CC350“, Colin has been an active buyer and seller on BaT since 2009, long before BaT even had auctions. He has a reputation of presenting quality cars that are honestly represented and described in detail by someone who actually knows what they are selling.

Bottom line: Never underestimate the difference experience and reputation make. Isn’t that the kind of fire power you want in your corner when it is time to sell?

What Colin and CCA Can Help You With

Colin can help you understand the market and decide how best to prepare and market your car for sale:

Pre-sale consultation: Will your car perform well on BaT? Is the timing right to sell your particular car?
In-person inspection: A thorough, honest assessment of what's right, what's wrong, and what matters to buyers. Is your car what it purports to be? What reconditioning or repairs are needed, if any? What should you spend money on, and what is better to disclose and leave up to the buyer?
Get your ducks in a row: An in-depth review of your car's documentation, history, and making sure it is ready to present to potential buyers.
Expert Assistance in any or all aspects: Whether you hire Colin to handle the entire sales process from start to finish, or merely hire him to consult with you as you navigate the process, you will have a pro in your corner you can rely on.
Detailing, mechanical repairs, body and paintwork: From finding "unobtainum" parts to make your car correct, professional photography/videography, storage, and an operating room clean facility to showcase your car while it is for sale, it is all here. As much or as little as you decide to do, we have the people and the knowledge to make it happen.

With CCA you get the benefit of Colin’s reputation, his vast experience honed over decades, and an uncompromising commitment to doing things the right way.
