You Sell Your Car
We Share Its Story
FTP Automotive represents owners through the vehicle selling process—from thoughtful preparation and auction presentation to buyer communication and the final handoff.
Selling a special vehicle takes more than placing an ad. Buyers want to understand its condition, history, character, and the details that make it worth owning.
FTP Automotive can represent your vehicle through the selling process, helping organize the information, prepare its presentation, and communicate with interested buyers. You remain involved in the decisions while we help manage the details.
Steps in Preserving the Provenance
01 - Condition
Inspection and Preperation
Review the vehicle’s condition, identify concerns, and discuss preparation that supports an informed sale. Any recommended service or cosmetic work is reviewed with you before proceeding.
02 - History
Records and Documentation
Organize service records, ownership information, equipment, modifications, and known imperfections so buyers can evaluate the vehicle with a clearer picture of its history.
03 - Presentation
Photos and Vehicle Details
Coordinate a thorough presentation of the exterior, interior, mechanical details, and accompanying items, with the information needed to tell the vehicle’s story.
04 - Strategy
Auction Selection & Submission
Discuss the auction platform that fits your vehicle, prepare submission materials, and help coordinate listing details and reserve considerations where applicable.
05 - Representation
Questions and Communication
Help address bidder questions, clarify details, and coordinate additional information during the auction. Thoughtful, timely communication helps buyers make informed decisions.
06 - The Hand Off
Post-Auction Coordination
Help coordinate communication, required documents, and vehicle pickup or transport arrangements following a successful sale.
