Never any luck at a show or flea market altho I have bought cars there....smile.

Bought and sold numerous cars at the Toronto auction in 90's and 2000's but it is expensive.

Try Old Autos, very concentrated market there.

I find too many low ballers and tire kickers come out of Kijiji and will not sell on there.

Buddy sold his 61 Ventura on this site and had numerous calls, also sold his Vette to a fellow in

New Zealand that saw it on here.....   classiccars.com

Cliff, I'd take BJ's advice and go with OLD AUTOS. I had nothing but "tire kickers & low balls"+ many wanting to trade JUNK from KIJJI when I put the 409 Impala up " Fur SAIL" there. Ad in O A worked better. 409 is now in NZ but broker "fell in love" with wagon and is having to decide whether to sell it to buyer in NZ or keep it!! If you Price it right [not wanting to get rich] it will sell!! Over Price & you'll be sitting on it, just leave a bit of wiggle room If you've dumped too much into car and are "underwater" your not going to recoup investment!!! Your car is BEAUTIFULL don't get me wrong but 67 IMPALA is not as desirable as others [ IMOP] There's someone out there!!!!! Just have to find that person

I'd try Bring a Trailer. I think it's a flat rate ($350 USD) with no commission. They have about the biggest audience of all the online car auctions these days.

As others have noted, I have also bought cars at big flea markets, but have never sold one.

I wish you good luck Cliff. I'm hoping one benefit for you is that you are centrally located in Canada, relatively close to the US border.

I'm trying to sell one of my cars from one extreme end of the country  - on an Island no less - and let me tell you it's not easy to attract buyers.

I'm considering online auctions this year.
