Jack Frost Auto Museum

Jack Frost Auto Museum is the sales and museum side of Jack Frost Auto, Inc., a classic car restoration shop in Washington, Michigan. The company restores collector cars, runs a museum and also sells vehicles. The cars in its recent listings are American models from the 1930s to the 1970s. It is an independent business and is not affiliated with Classic Cars Arena.

What the company is

The company's website presents it first as a restoration shop, with sections for restorations, the team and the Jack Frost Museum. Cars for sale appear in ads under the name "Jack Frost Auto Sales", and the listings link to an inventory page on Carsforsale.com. That suggests the sales side is part of a larger operation rather than a stand-alone lot. The team page lists Dale Wells as president and Russ Bahri as general manager, along with a shop foreman, restoration technicians and a museum curator. No founding year is published, so we do not give one.

What it sells

The company's ClassicCars.com page showed six vehicles when we checked. They included a 1965 Dodge Coronet 500 convertible at $48,990, a 1965 Chevrolet Impala at $39,990, a 1978 Lincoln Mark V at $16,990, a 1931 Ford Model A hot rod at $39,990 and a 1934 Ford sedan delivery at $49,990. The stock is small, so confirm that a car is still available before you plan a visit.

Restoration and service

The restoration page lists mechanical restoration, body and sheet metal work, paint, electrical, brake and suspension work, cooling system repair, engine and drivetrain service, interior and trim restoration and recommissioning after long-term storage. Appointments are suggested. For buyers, the same shop may be able to inspect or prepare a car, but the site does not say so, so ask.

Buying from the company

The site does not describe financing, shipping, deposits or consignment, and we found no published terms for any of them. Questions about those belong in a phone call before you commit. Our guide to how to buy a classic car lists the title, history and inspection points worth checking on any purchase, whether the seller is a dealer, a shop or a museum.

Reputation
