They do have an impressive inventory, but their prices are higher than private sellers - like most classic car dealers, but I think they have warranties which others do not. I think they have two locations - GA and NC?

A very good friend of mine just yesterday bought a very sweet looking and running '84 C10 short box, Blue, upgraded crate engine, 700R4 trans from them and was able to haggle a bit on price, he was happy with the deal, it was at their N.C. location. He told me that the place was incredible.
Peace,,, moosie

Well all of the cars their are on consignment. I asked him about the price, and he did confirm that they raise the price some to keep the lights on and to give the seller the amount that they said they needed for the car. But he also confirmed that you can give them any offer you wan't and they will try to make it happen...as long as it is reasonable. They are just trying to make the sale. Some of the prices are off, but some were very good in my eyes.

I told him I will be there often. He said they sell 40+ cars a week and that they get new cars every day. Said some people come in every week on their lunch breaks just to walk around.

Yes, I go to the Charlotte location on a regular basis. It's air conditioned and no one bothers you while you are looking.
When my dad comes to town we make an afternoon out of it, of course he lives in Atlanta so maybe the next visit there we will go to that location.

I have never been there. Funny thing is they are very close to RK Motors, another large collection of mostly classic cars. I will have to check it out. It is fun to look - better than many museums.
