Our Classic Car Inspection service applies to all car shapes made before the year 2000. Whether the vehicle is a Sedan, 4WD, SUV, Pickup Truck, Van, Station Wagon, Coupe, or Convertible, all are covered under this comprehensive plan.
This inspection is highly specialised and conducted exclusively by licensed classic car mechanics and experienced restorers with 15 to 30 years of expertise in classic car inspection, repair, and restoration. Our team has the complete knowledge required to assess stock or restored classic vehicles accurately.
Following the inspection, you will have a detailed understanding of the true condition of the vehicle, helping you make an informed decision before purchasing. You’ll be aware of any faults or repairs that may be outstanding.
Additionally, our inspectors are available for consultation on various aspects of the vehicle, such as body restoration, powertrain restoration, and overall value. Their advice will guide you in determining whether the vehicle fits your budget and needs. Rest assured, you’ll be receiving insights from industry insiders with extensive knowledge of classic cars and the restoration process, including projected restoration costs.
Purchasing classic cars is never as easy as buying normal everyday cars. Lots of people buy Vintage Cars to register and drive and many want to restore them, have some fun and eventually sell them to make a profit.
Investing in Classic Cars is probably the most profitable investment that can be done in any type of vehicle if it is done well. With lots of enthusiasm, there is no shortage of local and international Classic Car Buyers, and this is the reason that classic cars are very popular in Australia.
Lots of local restorers, restore classic cars and export them to the USA and Europe for great profits. In fact, most of our Classic Car Inspection clients are restorers themselves or want to buy a well-restored classic car.
Australians love their Vintage Cars and even if they are not legally registerable for road use, we have club registration that is very popular and has lots of members nationally.
Australia is also among the first few countries in terms of Vintage Car Variety. We have the greatest number of Classic Wedding Cars and Classic Hearses and that makes it even more important to invest in something that serves you well and is not someone else’s problem.
Never look at the shine and the polish of a classic car to decide on the purchase. Classic Cars naturally have the greatest number of mechanical and structural problems among all other cars that we inspect.
On average, the number of faults we find in vintage cars is three to five times higher than every other vehicle we inspect. The repair and labour cost is as well much higher if you want to involve a specialist to do the repairs.
Finding parts for classic cars is also a nightmare and, in some cases, the part does not exist anymore and needs to be either fabricated or replaced with another model. Most classic car parts need to be imported from the country of origin which can take a long time, cost a lot and in many cases, wrong parts are shipped which can be an extra headache and waste of time.
It is very important to know that purchasing a classic vehicle that is mechanically ok but has poor body condition can be a very big mistake. Non-reversible and excessive body rust, poor suspension or a bent chassis can be the ultimate mistake and in many cases are not fixable, so it is best to be extra careful before purchasing a classic car to avoid unwanted headaches.
We want you to just buy your Classic Vehicle with complete confidence and leave nothing to guesswork. During the inspection, all parts of the classic car get fully inspected by our fully Qualified Vintage Car Inspectors including the Powertrain, Body & Chassis.
We do not take any chances and every bolt and nut of the car that can be seen will be inspected. We also take pictures of what we see for you so that you can see everything yourself and use them as proof for price negotiations.
You will receive hundreds of pictures of everything which also makes your experience personal and enables you to see everything that the inspector has inspected.
Apart from all the mechanical and structural inspections, we can also detect a n 80 - year - old accident and comment on the condition of the repairs so that you leave nothing to guesswork before purchasing your next classic car.
Have full confidence that you will never lose money on a lemon classic car when you have Last Check by your side.
Classic Car Inspection comes with a highly sophisticated electronic rust and paint assessment which is absolutely critical for this model vehicle. Even if the vehicle is mechanically flawless but does not have a good body, it is not worth anything since the body is very hard and challenging to repair and sometimes it is not eve n repairable because of the severe rust.
This rust and paint assessment is different from modern cars and is done by an expert who can find hidden rust under the body paint as well as the paint filler hidden under the surface which can increase the cost o f repair a lot.
Our highly experienced classic car inspectors can also detect previous collisions of the vehicle even if the vehicle is over 100 years old with precision and this is what makes our classic car inspection different from the rest of our plan s. Be 100% confident that we will not let you make the wrong investment.
Oil and fluid leaks can be very challenging to fix when it comes to classic cars with older engines. Since the powertrain is aged and finding the original gaskets and internal parts is very hard and sometimes nearly impossible, it is very important to find one that does not have serious oil or other fluid leaks to begin with.
Our classic car inspectors will inform you of all critical leaks and can comment on the severity of the issues so that you can make a good decision before making any commitment and kn ow how hard the repairs might be should you go ahead with the purchase.
They know it all and they have repaired many of the same vehicles before so just choose the car that you like and leave the hard work to us.
Pre-purchase Classic Car Inspection is amongst our highest specialised inspections and is a very popular service that we do every week.
At Last Check, no ordinary mechanic will be appointed to inspect classic vehicles. We have Specialised Classic Car Inspectors onboard with broad knowledge of classic car repairs, classic car bodywork and classic car restoration.
Whether you want your next classic car for restoration, to drive or just want to invest in an older car, you can count on Last Check to provide you with the Most Comprehensive Classic Vehicle Inspection Report & a Solid Advice.
You can also ask all technical questions from your own inspector and seek guidance if you are not sure of something. Be confident that we have your back and we are always here to assist after your inspection.
Water ingress is very common in classic cars, often caused by worn seals, misaligned panels, or hidden issues such as hairline cracks and rust. These faults are not always visible from the outside, but our advanced testing can detect them with 100 percent accuracy.
Even if there are no leak lines, trapped moisture remains inside for a long time and our ultra-sensitive machines will find it. While cars left under hot sun may dry out, complete drying usually takes days or weeks. We focus on detecting even the smallest traces of moisture rather than relying on visible leaks.
Although fully dry cars may show no readings, this test is still a safeguard that can save significant costs by identifying hidden water ingress early. It is especially valuable for:
Classic vehicles with older seals and body structures
Restored cars where panel alignment may hide flaws
High-value collectables where even minor hidden leak can impact value
Moisture testing is not included in the standard inspection but can be added on request. To learn more about moisture testing, click Here.
