Thanks Tom for the personal attention offered me in viewing your inventory. Both you and Torie were professional and accommodating. Prospective buyers will quickly have confidence in a fair transaction with Laferriere Classic Cars.
This is Not a customer review — I’ve never done business with LaFerriere Classic Cars and don’t expect to, but I have spoken with Tom a number of times and finally met him at Hershey this year. Our common interest is American LaFrance speedsters and Tom has generously shared his considerable experience and wise recommendations as I plan the design and construction of my own project. Thanks again Tom, I’m off to the workshop now…
I have been looking for a real 1970-71 Olds 442 convertible for years, preferably a blue one with A/C and matching numbers. When I saw one in Hemmings located in RI, I was very interested. When I called, Tom described the car accurately and assured me it was worth the 3 hour drive to see it. He was correct. Tom put the car on the lift, gave me plenty of time to look the car over, and was fair to deal with. The crazy part is, I had seen this car years ago, but was unable to make a deal. I now own a blue 442 cvt with air and matching #’s!
Tom and Torie were a pleasure to work with, I recommend Laferriere Classic Cars!
In July ’81, my father bought home a 1967 Camaro SS/RS Convertible with plans of a father son project. The project stalled several times, as he first died in December ‘1981, during my senior year of high school. After 38 years of ownership, I decided to sell. But I was overwhelmed with emotion and didn’t know where to begin, until I was introduced to Tom. I was first impressed with his inventory of some of the finest automobiles around. At our first meeting Tom inspected my car and we decided on a fair price point. We basically had a handshake deal; I left my car with him and took an Uber ride home.
Tom works hard for both the seller and buyer and he made the process appear to be seamless, right down to the paperwork and car transportation. I would recommend Tom to anyone thinking of selling a collectible car.
Tom is the most responsive, upfront, professional person in the Classic Car business. He made the purchase of my 32 Chevy an absolute pleasure.
Virtually every step of the process was made easy. From initial contact to the tuning that he had no obligation to do, to driving out of his yard was all enjoyable.
Tom is certainly one of a kind that I highly recommend to anyone interested in buying or selling Classics
I have been looking for a 1967 SS Convertible for over 5 years. Every time I have gone to look at one it has not been as described, until now. The pictures were so thorough on Tom’s website that I knew I had found the car. I didn’t think I even needed to come look because it was so well documented. Tom suggested I fly out anyway just to be sure and I am glad I did. Tom picked me up from the hotel in the morning in my car and took me to his shop. I was able to drive the car and completely inspect it on the lift. The car was better than it was described! It was truly a great experience. I really enjoyed looking at all of his other cars while I was there.
Torie was a pleasure to deal with and got all of the paperwork in line. I was able to get plates and a title requested the day the car showed up.
They went above and beyond to take care of me and I really appreciate that. They even came in on Labor Day to help the shipper load my car.
Thanks Again!
I did something I swore I’d never do; sent the money before I saw the car! To my surprise and relief the car was much better than I expected! Tom’s ad description was very clear and honest, as was he truthful and helpful on the telephone. Torie was especially helpful with details for my customs export too. Can’t imagine a better experience buying a collector car, I’d deal with Tom again in a heartbeat!
I am 46 years old, I have owned over 50 cars. From a Delorean to an Aston Martin. I have never felt more comfortable making an offer on a classic car than I did the 1963 Buick Riviera I got from Tom Laferriere. He let me put on a lift, drive it, inspect every aspect of it, without any pressure. I knew the whole picture of the car before making an offer, that was huge. Very few sellers ever made me feel as good as Tom did with this Buick.
Tom gave me a fantastic support to find and buy a Ford T brass era (1912).
I was looking for a project non an already restored car and it was really hard to find it in Europe! Tom did it and with a very high professionalità!!!
Thank you Tom!
Tom advertised the 56 Packard I bought as one of the purest and best available.
We did a Facebook live to view the car and ask questions. Tom encouraged me to fly there and see the car but I was convinced it was as he had advertised. The moment the carriers truck door opened and revealed this piece of rolling art, I realized I had made a great buy and was truly the new caretaker of one of America’s automotive treasures. Thank you Tom I am more than thrilled with the car.
