What to Know About welcome Our New BaT Local Partners in NV, CA, MI, NJ, NC, MO!
The network of BaT Local Partners now includes participating facilities in 27 US states, three Canadian provinces, three European countries, and the UK. Today, we’re welcoming six new Local Partners in Nevada, California, Michigan, New Jersey, North Carolina, and Missouri. Many of these sellers are well-known to our community, and we’re excited that they’ve signed on to offer their expertise in preparation, presentation, and auction management to owners wanting professional assistance selling their vehicles on Bring a Trailer.
For those unfamiliar with the Local Partners program, it is a network of vetted shops who know what it takes to present an exceptional BaT auction. These facilities offer preparation services like detailing, video and photography packages, and management of the submission and live auction process if desired. Many also offer maintenance and restoration, as well as logistical support including storage and transport. Please join us in welcoming our newest BaT Local Partners!
Classic & Collectible Cars Las Vegas—Las Vegas, Nevada
Classic & Collectible Cars has been in business since 1982, and operates out of an 8,200-square-foot facility within Las Vegas city limits. They’ve built their business selling accessible enthusiast vehicles, and a glance at their BaT profile shows an eclectic sales history of classics, exotics, trucks, 4x4s, and automobilia. They are eager to help potential BaT sellers with preparation, presentation, inspections, and auction representation. If their name sounds familiar, you may have seen them featured on History Channel’s Counting Cars several times! Learn more about their offerings on their BaT Local Partner page.
Vantage Auto—Metro New Jersey Area
It’s hard to browse BaT without bumping into a listing from Vantage Auto, and they’ve been a consistent high-volume seller here for a few years now. In addition to listing preparation, photography and video, and auction representation, they have a full-service mechanic on premises, and offer transportation and storage services, as well. Their full offerings are detailed on their local partner page.
Vintique Motors—Livonia, Michigan
Vintique Motors has been an enthusiastic BaT seller for a decade now, and they’ve mastered the process over the course of nearly 500 auctions. They serve the greater Detroit area from the western suburb of Livonia, and are skilled sellers of motorcycles and automobilia in addition to four-wheeled fare. Find out more about their full offerings on their local partner page.
Compass Racing—Palm Springs, California
Compass Racing Collective is an experienced Local Partner out of San Diego, California, and their second facility in Palm Springs is now part of the network. In fact, their new Palm Springs location will be co-hosting our first BaT Meet-Up of 2026 on February 21 at Desert Dunes. They’ve helped sellers achieve great results with a diverse array of vehicles, from vintage racers to late-model EVs. We love their golden-hour oceanside photo galleries, and can’t wait to see what they do with the desert as a backdrop. A full list of services offered at both locations can be viewed on their local partner page.
Hyman Ltd.—St. Louis, Missouri
Hyman Ltd. is a seller who needs no introduction. They’ve been operating out of St. Louis, Missouri since 1988, and have been placing significant cars with collectors and museums around the globe since long before the days of online auctions. Their photos and video are always top-notch, and we never tire of watching them putting century-old vehicles through their paces. While deeply immersed in the world of classics, they have shown equal facility with more recent fare, presenting late-model Minis with the same attention to detail as coachbuilt prewar Rolls-Royces. Check out their full list of services on their local partner page.
SpeedHouse—Durham, North Carolina
SpeedHouse has begun selling on BaT more recently than some of the other Local Partners on this list, but they’ve taken to the process like a Jeep to mud. From their facility in Durham, North Carolina, they offer a full menu of preparation and presentation services, and even have sheet metal fabricators in-house! They’ve shown themselves to be knowledgeable and responsive sellers while representing some complex vehicles, and we’re excited to see them bring their skills to the Local Partners network. Their full approach and list of services is detailed on their local partner page.
Big thanks to these new BaT Local Partners for stepping forward to help old cars find new homes!
