Buy / Sell — Sourcing
Source a Car
Is there a car you have always wanted? A vintage Mercedes, an air-cooled Porsche, a BMW from the era you grew up with, an Aston Martin you have never stopped thinking about? Tell us what it is, and we will find it, inspect it, sort it, and hand you the keys.
We are a repair shop first, so every car we track down comes across our lift before you commit — inspected, tuned, and sorted by the people who will keep it running for years.
Tell Us What You Are Looking For
Give us the car and a few details. The more you tell us, the better we can hunt.

What We Do
We Hunt Down the Car You Want
After more than four decades working on the finest European and foreign cars in the South Bay, we know where the good ones are and the people who own them. When you are looking for something specific, we put that network to work and go find it.
What sets us apart is what happens next. We are a repair shop first, so every car we source comes across our lift before you ever commit. We inspect it with a mechanic’s eye, tune it, and put right whatever it needs. You end up with a car that has already been sorted by the people who will care for it down the road, not a stranger’s promise.
How It Works
From Wish List to Driveway
Tell Us What You Want
Share the car you are chasing and a few details: make, model, era, budget, and any must-haves. The clearer the picture, the sharper the search.
We Find It
We put out the word through the people we have known for decades: collectors, clubs, dealers, and the quiet corners of the market where the good cars actually change hands.
We Inspect and Sort It
Before you commit, the car comes across our lift. We go through it the way we go through our own customers' cars, and we tune and repair whatever it needs.
You Drive It Home
You take delivery of a car that has already been looked over, sorted, and made right by the people who will keep it running for years to come.
Found, Inspected, Sorted
The car you have always wanted is out there. We will find it and make it right before you drive it home.
Why Source Through Us
A Mechanic Finding Your Car, Not a Salesman
Inspected Before You Commit
Every car we source comes across our lift for a full mechanical inspection. We tell you exactly what we find and exactly what it needs.
Sorted and Tuned In-House
Whatever the car needs, we handle it here. You take delivery of a car that is ready to enjoy, not a project that surprises you a month later.
Close to Seventy Years of Know-How
We know these cars inside and out, which models are worth chasing, and where the weak spots hide. That experience protects you from an expensive mistake.
A Shop That Stays With You
We are not here for a one-time sale. The same team that finds your car is here to maintain it, so the relationship keeps going long after you drive away.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions About Sourcing
What kind of cars can you source?
We focus on the European and foreign cars we know best — Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Porsche, Audi, Volkswagen, and collector marques like Aston Martin and Jaguar. Whether you are after a vintage classic, a modern sports car, or a specific project, tell us what you have in mind and we will let you know how we can help.
What makes sourcing through a repair shop different?
Most people who sell cars are salespeople. We are mechanics. With close to seventy years of hands-on experience, we know what to look for, what tends to go wrong on a given model, and what a car truly needs. Every car we source comes across our lift before you commit, so you are buying a sorted car, not a gamble.
How long does it take to find a car?
It depends on the car. A clean, sought-after classic in a specific color or trim can take time to surface, while a more common model may turn up quickly. We would rather find the right car than rush you into the wrong one. We will keep you posted as the search develops.
Do you inspect the car before I buy it?
Yes. A thorough mechanical inspection is the heart of what we do. We go through the engine, transmission, suspension, brakes, and electrical systems, and we handle any tuning or repairs in-house before you take delivery. You see exactly what you are getting.
