KC Classic Cars

KC Classic Cars is a classic car and truck dealer in Excelsior Springs, Missouri. On its website the owner says the business started "over 15 years ago" as "a small, personalized venture." It is an independent business and is not affiliated with Classic Cars Arena.

The business in the owner's words

The home page says KC Classic Cars specializes in "solid, rust-free classic cars and trucks," which is the seller's own description. The site does not name the owner and gives no exact founding year, so we leave both out. Compare the car and its documents, not the sales pitch.

What it sells

The inventory page showed 26 vehicles when we checked. They include a 1927 Ford Model A, a 1931 Ford Tudor, a 1933 Ford panel truck, a 1948 Ford Custom, a 1955 GMC Apache pickup at $51,995, a 1957 Chevrolet 3100, a 1962 Chevrolet Corvette, a 1965 Chevrolet C10, two Ford Mustangs from 1965 and 1966 with the 1965 listed at $36,500, a 1967 Pontiac Catalina at $27,900, a 1970 Pontiac Firebird, a 1971 Dodge Super Bee, a 1972 Oldsmobile 442 and a 1972 Pontiac GTO. A 1987 Corvette was listed at $15,495. The list also includes some newer vehicles, among them a 1992 Mustang LX 5.0, a 1999 Porsche 911 Carrera and a 2010 Dodge Challenger R/T Classic, so it is mostly but not entirely vintage.

Buying and selling

Shipping and finance pages exist on the site. The shipping page says "Information Coming Soon" and, because the company says it is in the process of acquiring and remodeling a new location, asks buyers to call to arrange a personal inspection. The finance page is a loan application form. The site invites trade-ins and says it wants to buy vehicles. We found no consignment program. Our guide to what to check before you buy lists the paperwork to request, and an independent inspection is wise on any car bought from a distance.

Reputation

We found no BBB profile for KC Classic Cars and no customer reviews. The site is run on the Carsforsale.com platform. With little outside feedback, rely on your own checks: VIN, title, a walk-around video and a pre-purchase inspection.
