Buying memories doesn't come cheap
A priceless story adds immense value to classic automobiles
Researching the previous owners of your classic car, boat, or motorcycle could pay off BIG. A historical imprint on a vehicle can be worth its weight in gold. History plays out every day and often involves vehicles that will survive somewhere in time and our hearts.
May it be a global event or a silver screen appearance, people embrace vehicles with all their emotional might to keep history alive. OJ’s white Bronco, Kennedy’s presidential 1961 Lincoln convertible, Marty Mcfly’s 1982 DeLorean DMC-12, Ronald Reagan’s 1972 Lincoln Continental, Bonnie and Clyde’s 1934 Ford Model 730 Deluxe, or the 1948 General Motors TDH-3610 City Transit bus that Rosa Parks created a landmark memory for the civil rights movement. All examples of autos making an everlasting impression on humans.
What do they all have in common? Sentimental value. No matter how painful or pleasing a memory may be, there’s an emotional price tag attached to historical branded tangible goods. Whoever said money couldn’t buy happiness never bought a classic auto — especially one wrapped in global recognition.
We’ve all heard of the those genealogy companies that help you research your family tree. There’s nothing more exciting than discovering you’re related to a famous aristocrat, athlete, artist, or actor. The same goes for your classic auto. There’s wealth in association! At Auto Appraisal Network – Detroit, we can help you put a true value on your vehicle based on nationally comparable cars. If you have that one of a kind, uniquely christened by history vehicle, we may be able to help you get in contact with the inner circle of notable collectors. Auto Appraisal Network has been in business for over thrity years. We know the right people.
Beyond the notably famous vehicles, all classic car owners establish nostalgic stories about their “baby.” Kindred tales of discovery blended with particulars of a pampered resurrection or sustained survival fueled by one source— pride. To know a classic collector of any type is to know a person who cherishes life during the finest and most challenging days. Battle scars aren’t unsightly. They’re badges of honor. There’s no way to put a monetary value on the unique emotional relationship between owner and auto. Or is there?
