Shaker Valley Auto Sales

Shaker Valley Auto Sales is a small dealer in Canaan, New Hampshire, that sells classic and antique cars alongside some newer vehicles, motorcycles and trailers. Its website lists classic car storage, sales, service, consignment, repair and specialty vehicle locating. It is an independent business and is not affiliated with Classic Cars Arena.

Who they are

The About section says the team has "many years of combined experience in the automotive industry." No owners are named and no founding year is given on the pages we read, so we state neither. The business operates from Blackwater Road in Canaan.

How the business works

Shaker Valley sells from its own inventory and says it also handles storage, service, repair and consignment. The site does not publish consignment terms, fees or commission, so a seller should ask for them in writing. Our guide to classic car consignment fees explains what is typical and what to negotiate. The inventory also includes trailers and motorcycles, so this is not a pure classic lot.

What is in stock

The cars-for-sale page showed 20 results when we read it. Much of it is American cars and trucks from the 1920s to the 1950s, and the listings we saw included:

• A 1928 Ford (listed at $12,900), a 1928 Model A and a 1930 Model A.
• A 1932 Ford roadster, a 1940 Ford Deluxe, a 1941 Ford Super Deluxe and a 1946 Ford Custom at $39,900.
• A 1952 Chevrolet 3100 pickup, a 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air at $54,900 and a 1972 Chevrolet panel van.
• A 1957 Ford Thunderbird.

The same list also had newer vehicles, including a 2002 Corvette, a 2015 Ford Mustang GT at $49,500 and a 2016 Sierra, as well as a 1969 Triumph and Harley-Davidson and Victory motorcycles. The dealer's "Classic Cars" filter returned no results when we tried it, so use the full list and read each entry. Prices we saw ran from $12,900 to $54,900.

Buying from them

The dealer's listings are carried on Carsforsale.com. The website does not describe deposits, financing, shipping or pre-purchase inspections. Ask about each before you commit.
