How to Sell a Classic Car in Arizona

If you have a classic car that you no longer want to keep in Arizona, you can sell the vehicle on your own. The classic car market is slightly different from selling a regular car as classic cars are typically worth a bit more. As a result, when selling a classic car in Arizona or any other state, you must do things somewhat differently from when you are selling a regular vehicle, such as first getting an appraisal of the vehicle.

Instructions

1

Take your classic car to an auto appraiser in your area of Arizona so that you can get a written appraisal of the car. If you don't know any area appraisers, you can use the directory on the Auto Trader Classics website (see Resource section).

2

Check the sales prices for similar classic cars in your area of Arizona by looking up the classified ads of your local newspaper or going online to the Classic Cars website (see Resource section) or the Auto Trader Classics website. This will help you know how to price your car in relation to its appraised value.

3

Take some photos of your car. Create ads to sell the car on sites such as the Auto Trader Classics website, Craigslist and eBay. Prices for posting the ad vary. You can also post an ad in the classified section of your local Arizona newspaper.

4

Place your car in some of the classic car shows in Arizona as this is a good way to get the car in front of potential buyers. The Cruisin' Arizona website (see Resource section) has a directory of all the classic car shows in Arizona.

5

Remove your license plate and sign over the title of your car when you have a buyer. According to the Arizona Department of Transportation, you are required to sign over the title in the presence of a notary.
