Old Town Classics in downtown San Diego, dealing in original-condition European classics since 1987, operates as a licensed dealer and independent vehicle appraiser from 841 14th Street. The operation shares the downtown collector-car market with luxury dealers including Auto Private Collection by ANY on Fifth Avenue in the Gaslamp Quarter, with Old Town Classics specializing in pre-1990s Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, Porsche, and other European marques while A.N.Y. handles later-model exotics. Owner and founder Bill Neff travels throughout the Southwest sourcing dry-climate barn finds, and the dealership ships internationally to a repeat-buyer network of collectors and dealers across the United States and Europe. Classic vehicles acquired in non-running or long-stored condition undergo recommissioning that includes mechanical sorting and exterior preservation detailing through GTR Mobile Detailing Inc before being photographed and listed. The most involved acquisitions require multi-state barn-find sourcing trips, pre-purchase compression and rust assessment on vehicles that have sat for decades, and enclosed carrier transport back to San Diego for cataloging and sale.
