The Raleigh Classic has been in the collector car ‘live’ auction business since 1999 having held 37 events over the last 28 years.

The Carolina Classic Cars collection has provided a major percentage of the vehicles offered at the Raleigh Classic auctions and is widely known as a time-tested, reliable source for unrestored, low-mileage, and largely original vehicles.

Effective with the Spring 2026 Raleigh Classic Auction event we will be offering forty (40) cars and trucks online at raleighclassic.com. Many of these vehicles have been part of the collection for quite a while, coming from prior private long-term owners, while others were acquired from estate liquidation offerings. Each vehicle’s prior ownership and maintenance history is of paramount importance when we add a car to the collection.

Our long-time objective has been to offer a top-quality selection of unusually well-maintained and low-mileage vehicles so that prospective buyers can bid with absolute confidence.

Those of you who attended previous Raleigh Classic Auctions found the mechanical and cosmetic condition of each vehicle equaled or exceeded the written description in the brochure and online.

Truly good quality, old cars are becoming extremely difficult to find. This event offers a great selection of:

• Many mint unrestored originals and rare convertibles from the '30s to mid-'80s
• Very special trucks, vans and wagons
• Stunning examples of British Classics and sports cars
