Testimonials

Used car dealers? Ugghh! Right? Well, not Tom. He was completely honest, open and helpful. When he first sent pictures, they showed the flaws. When we agreed on a price, he wouldn't sell the car until I had an independent inspection. When the inspection revealed some problems, Tom fixed them. It was a great experience form start to finish. If Tom tells you something, it's the truth.

Harry, thank you so much!

Last October, while participating in the Audrain Museum Car week in Newport, Rhode Island, my nicely restored 1939 Buick Roadmaster Convertible Sedan (Model 80C) experienced some complicated electrical problems. Adding to the issues is that I had shipped the car from my home in California and, therefore, did not know any good mechanics in the area. Several local Collectors including two restorers from out of town for the event referred me to restorer Tom Laferriere as a very reliable mechanic and restorer from a nearby town. I phoned him and he agreed to take on my car and I left it with him and flew back home to California. Within a week Tom had solved the problem as a loose wire in the ignition and starter assembly. He even sent me a video and detailed explanation of the repair. I had owned the car for 14 years after restoration and had been thinking of selling the car. Once again, Tom came through for me and sold the car for an acceptable price in a relatively short time. He was very easy to work with, kept me informed and is a genuine nice guy. I was lucky to find him and would not hesitate to again do business with him. John Milliken, Southern California

John, it was my pleasure to be able to quickly repair the car and offer it on your behalf. Thank you for the opportunity.

Tom is a special car guy with a great eye and does a wonderful job representing cars to his clients and friends. Thanks for the help with my new Lozier! Corky

Who is better than you? I enjoyed the experience.

Needed to sell a high-quality 1914 vehicle for a museum. My occupation limits my time for outside project so I needed somebody who I could work with online and felt that I could trust. Had to recommendation from a well known quality restorer that led me to Tom. Had a nice discussion upfront and set a price which Tom could meet with a buyer. Vehicle was sold, and there was no issues no problems no frictions no “I’ll get back to you“ leaving me in the dark for days . I walked away, feeling that I had worked with somebody who was trustworthy and honest. The vehicle found a nice home and I could walk away feeling that I helped the museum project. He is a good guy to work with..

Tony, it was my pleasure to work with you and find you a buyer for the Lozier.

Tom provided impeccable communication and customer service with my transaction. Due my schedule constraints, I could only make it down to his business on a Saturday when it was closed. Tom, graciously accommodated my schedule and spent over 2 hours with me as I reviewed, inspected and drove the car.

During the process he was very conservative in his assessments and encouraged me to employ 3rd party expertise to assist in the evaluation. Once we agreed upon price, the transaction was completed remotely without any issues, surprises, or delays.

And finally Tom assisted with the shipping company; making sure the car was loaded properly and set for its new destination.

Overall, he's a true professional whom you can trust.

Joe, it was awesome working with you!! Thank you!

Absolute pleasure to purchase a classic MG from Tom. He described the car in exact detail followed by amazing detail photos and videos. He answered my questions about specific details immediately and knowledgeably. Tom arranged for the car to be shipped in an enclosed truck and kept me informed of the timing of the loading in the truck. I would not hesitate to buy a car from Tom in the future. Thank you Tom for an outstanding buying experience.

Lee, it was a pleasure working with you.

It was a pleasure to work with Tom to sell my classic car. He handled all of the calls and handled all of the process. It was a seamless transaction. Tom is very knowledgeable about the classic car market and his experience was invaluable. His honesty and unbiased approach to buying and selling cars was refreshing. Tom will be my resource when selling or buying my next classic.

Dennis, thank you for your kind words! I am here to share the knowledge!

I called Tom out of the blue and he took my call and questions with a great attitude. He was very helpful to me. I have a feeling I will be adding Tom to my phone's contact list. First impression is that he is a great guy, Thanks Tom!

Thank you Curtis!

Despite the value of the car not being dependent on its mechanical condition - It's a full Classic and one of thirty remaining - Tom encouraged me to test drive it and then put it up on a lift so I could check underneath. He relayed my offer to the owner even though the price was already reasonable. Two missing parts were found. The transaction went through without a hitch. The owner even gave me a die cast model of the car to go with it.

John, I am glad you are enjoying the Buick!

I bought a 1934 Super Eight from Tom in Oct 2022. Tom is super easy to talk to, answered all my inexperienced questions about Packard operation and ownership. His knowledge and professionalism is First Rate ! Thanks for helping me in buying my Dream Car.

Pete, the pleasure was all mine! Seeing your other passions was a treat!

I bought a 1939 Cadillac from Laferriere Classic Car by phone. His description was perfect. When, I got the car, I found out how you can trust this company. I am very happy and I would buy another car anytime from them.

Gilles, thank you for business! It was nice to meet you.

This was my first purchase of a classic vehicle, the 1957 Studebaker Transtar pickup truck. I receive so many compliments when I am out and about with it. It is truly unique. Tom was a pleasure to deal with.

Carl, thank you! The pleasure is mine!

Met Tom at his Shop. Became obvious to me that he is a class A car historian and is very involved in the preservation of automobiles. Tom presented to me a 70 Hemi Cuda that spoke for itself and was properly priced. As you speak with Tom you gain confidence, as his knowledge of cars and honesty in business is evident. I really enjoyed my car buying experience. I will deal with Tom again and you should to.

Thank You Tom

Hi Ken, the pleasure is mine! Thank you.

I couldn’t be more pleased with the job Tom did selling my car. Tom was very easy to work with and he sold the car quickly for the price that I wanted. It was an easy, hassle-free way to sell a car. I highly recommend Tom to anyone who wants to sell their car but doesn’t want the hassle.

Frank, it was my pleasure. Good quality cars are always easier to find new buyers.

I am most gratefull with all the help he gave me.

Juha, I am happy you like the car. It's a great example.

Tom is not only a gentleman but he is honest, friendly, an expert in his field, in touch with classic auto sales markets, auto pricing, and can definitely find qualified buyers for your vehicles.
