Meet the Garage Kept Classics Team

Garage Kept Classics LLC is a collector vehicle marketing and consignment company based in Salem, Ohio, serving vehicle owners throughout Northeast Ohio, Western Pennsylvania, and beyond.

Founded by lifelong automotive enthusiast Dave Hanson, Garage Kept Classics LLC was built from a passion for classic vehicles and years of helping friends, family, and collectors successfully market and sell their vehicles. What started as helping others obtain maximum value on their collector vehicles quickly evolved into a professional business focused on providing a more personal, transparent, and enthusiast-driven experience.

Unlike many traditional dealerships and consignment lots, Garage Kept Classics LLC allows clients to keep their vehicles safely in their possession throughout the sales process. We believe your vehicle should remain protected in your garage — not sitting unattended in an unfamiliar showroom or storage lot.

Our goal is simple:
Provide professional marketing, serious buyer exposure, and personalized service while helping clients maximize the value of their vehicles.

Garage Kept Classics LLC specializes in classic cars, muscle cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs, boats, commercial vehicles, specialty collector vehicles, and more. Through professional photography, HD video, global online marketing exposure, and buyer screening, we help connect serious buyers with quality vehicles nationwide and internationally.

At Garage Kept Classics LLC, we take pride in every vehicle we represent and every relationship we build with our clients.

We Don’t Succeed Unless You Succeed.
