How to Buy and Sell Collector Cars By Patrick Krook (REV! Muscle Cars)

Learn how to maximize your profits and savings when buying and selling collector cars! The dealership model is a long-standing American institution, and auction houses date back to the days of dusty cattle sales — both largely unchanged for decades. But since the early 2000s, the internet has transformed the way vintage cars are bought and sold, creating a global online marketplace accessible to anyone.

CarTech, in collaboration with Patrick Krook of REV! Muscle Cars, presents a proven process developed over 20 years of experience building some of the world’s most significant classic car collections. Whether you’re a first-time buyer or a seasoned collector, this book shows you how to find and purchase your dream collector car with confidence and ease. Learn how to get exactly the car you expect, create positive cash flow, and keep the hobby fun for years to come.

This practical, highly illustrated guide provides a step-by-step method to find, evaluate, negotiate, fund, close, and take delivery of a collector car safely over the internet — all without leaving your living room. It also reveals how to avoid costly mistakes, such as overpaying, falling for fakes, or buying someone else’s problem car.

Even more, it explains how to sell from a position of strength, minimizing your long-term investment while building your collection strategically over time. The book also covers the essentials for smooth person-to-person driveway transactions.

Why waste tens of thousands of dollars on dealership markups, auction fees, or bad deals when you can master the process yourself? How to Buy and Sell Collector Cars will help you secure your dream car, save money, and turn car collecting into a rewarding — and profitable — lifelong adventure.
