What Classic Vehicles Do We Buy?
Our interest extends well beyond conventional classic cars. We consider everything from restored collector vehicles through to old commercial trucks, American pickups and long-forgotten restoration projects.
Sell My Classic Car
British, European and imported classics, from restored cars to inherited vehicles and projects.
Sell My Classic Truck
Vintage HGVs, historic lorries, classic commercials and former working trucks.
Classic Vans
Older Bedford, Ford, Commer, Morris and other classic vans may also be considered.
Sell My Barn Find
Forgotten vehicles discovered in barns, garages, workshops, farms and long-term storage.
Sell My American Vehicle
Classic American cars, pickup trucks, imported vehicles and restoration projects.
Sell My Project Vehicle
Incomplete restorations, rolling projects, dismantled classics and non-running vehicles.
American Pickup Trucks Wanted
Classic American pickups are an increasingly important part of the vehicles we are interested in. We consider restored trucks, original survivors, UK-registered imports, barn finds and unfinished projects.
Sell My Chevrolet Pickup
Chevrolet C10, Apache, Stepside, Fleetside and other classic Chevy pickups.
Sell My Ford F-Series
Ford F100, older F150 models and classic American Ford pickup projects.
Sell My Dodge or Ram Pickup
Classic Dodge pickups, D-Series, Power Wagon and imported Ram trucks.
Sell My GMC Pickup
Classic GMC pickups, older Sierra trucks and American restoration projects.
If you are unsure of the exact model or year of an American pickup, photographs, registration details and any import paperwork are usually enough for us to begin identifying the vehicle.
Classic British Trucks & Commercial Vehicles
NHEX already works extensively with commercial vehicles, so classic trucks and vintage lorries are a particularly natural part of our classic vehicle buying service.
Sell My Bedford Truck
Bedford TK, KM, TL, TM and other historic Bedford commercial vehicles.
Sell My ERF Truck
Classic ERF tractor units, rigid trucks, tippers, barn finds and restoration projects.
Other British Classic Trucks
We are also interested in Foden, Leyland, AEC, Scammell, Atkinson and other historic British commercial vehicles.

Do You Buy Barn Finds & Long-Term Stored Vehicles?
Yes. A classic vehicle does not need to be restored, roadworthy or even running for us to consider it.
We are interested in genuine barn finds, garage discoveries and vehicles that may have remained unused for many years. This can include cars, pickups, trucks, vans and other historic vehicles.
Condition can vary enormously. Some vehicles simply need recommissioning, while others may require complete restoration.
Find out more on our barn find vehicle buyers page.
Can I Sell an Unfinished Classic Vehicle Project?
Absolutely. Restoration projects can stall for many reasons, including lack of time, storage space, unavailable parts or a change in circumstances.
We consider non-running vehicles, rolling shells, partially dismantled classics and projects at almost any stage of restoration.
Visit our project vehicle buyers page for more information.
Selling an Inherited Classic Vehicle
We also hear from families and executors who have inherited classic cars, old commercial vehicles or entire collections but may know very little about them.
You do not need to identify or value everything before contacting us. Photographs, registration numbers and whatever paperwork is available can help us assess the vehicles.
More Than Just Classic Car Buyers
Unlike businesses focused solely on classic cars, NHEX also has experience with trucks, plant machinery, agricultural equipment and specialist commercial vehicles.
That makes us particularly interested in unusual vehicles that may fall outside the normal classic car dealer market.
Whether it is an old Bedford truck stored on a farm, an American pickup imported decades ago, a former haulage vehicle or an unfinished restoration project, we would be pleased to hear about it.
Rare & Exceptional Collector Vehicles
Occasionally we are approached with particularly rare, historically significant or high-value collector vehicles where a normal direct vehicle sale may not be the most appropriate route.
For suitable vehicles, we may recommend a more discreet specialist introduction through our private collector network.
