Shawn did an inspection on a car for me located several hours away. The car didn’t turn out as the seller stated, so I had to pass on it. That inspection saved me lots of grief and money. Shawn and his team are A+.

Dedication
Shawn is an awesome appraiser and went above and beyond haggling with my insurance company. He never stopped pursuing until we got a settlement we both felt was fair. Not a single complaint from using him, from start to finish Shawn’s communication and dedication was on point for the entirety of the process. Can definitely recommend using him, will definitely use again in the future if needed! Thanks again Shawn!

I was shopping for a classic Mustang for a couple years. Once I found one that met my must haves, I knew I wanted to have it professionally inspected first. I contacted American Classic Appraisals and knew this was a good decision when the phone was answered by the owner, Shawn. He actually made the 6-hour drive to inspect the car personally. What a great experience that gave me peace that I had finally found THE CAR for me! He even provided an appraisal for my insurance needs. A great experience from start to finish. Excellent communication. Always answered phone calls and returned texts within minutes. I definitely recommend calling Shawn before you buy!

Couldn’t have asked for a better Inspection Experience
Shawn and his team at American Classic Appraisals did an outstanding job on my inspection. From start to finish, the experience was excellent.Shawn was extremely personable, super friendly, and clearly very knowledgeable. He took the time to walk through everything in detail and made sure all of my questions were answered. His team thoroughly reviewed every item I asked for and went above and beyond what I expected.Most importantly, the inspection gave me the confidence and confirmation I needed to move forward with my Jeep CJ7 purchase. The report was detailed, professional, and easy to understand, and the communication throughout the process was top-notch.I would absolutely recommend Shawn and American Classic Appraisals to anyone looking for a thorough, trustworthy, and professional inspection, especially for classic vehicles.

You found a vehicle, now STOP and…
I’d tell anyone considering the purchase of a vehicle to enlist the services and expertise of SHAWN to guide them. I’ve been messing with cars, trucks, motorcycles, etc. for around 50 years. Yet he examines vehicles in a more in-depth manner than I’d ever be knowledgeable of. The relatively modest fee charged is not money wasted at all. Whether Shawn uncovers items that lead you to walk away from a purchase OR his investigation(s) bolster your confidence to purchase, IT’S MONEY VERY WELL SPENT. His mantra of “I work for you” is one he genuinely operates by and his friendly, courteous personality makes the whole process more pleasant. Use Shawn to get the RIGHT vehicle for you…just like he’s done for me!

Great company for inspecting and verifying a classic car prior to buying! The owner answers calls himself, and has a network of very qualified appraisers who work for him. The dealers photos presented the car I was going to buy as just about perfect, WOW when I got American Classic's photos! HUGE difference! They saved me from a $33K mistake! Highly recommended!

From the moment Shawn answered the phone, I felt confident that the online reviews and rating were accurate! What I thought was going to take weeks and weeks took 3 days to get my vehicles Total Loss Value increased by just over $11,000 and $2,000 more than I had previously thought the vehicle was worth.
