Our motto is…
“Hobbyists Helping Hobbyists”
|

The International Vehicle Appraisers Network
(I-VAN) is a nationwide association of Automotive Hobbyists who are also
Automobile Appraisers. We appraise Antique, Classic & Special Interest
Vehicles (including street rods, customs, etc). We also appraise Automobilia
(automotive collectibles) and automotive art. Some of our appraisers also do
Diminished Value and Lemon Law Appraisals.
All of our appraisers are National Judges for
the Antique Automobile Club of America (AACA) as well as for many other
national car clubs. All appraisers attend a Training School, do field
training assignments, and home study before certification. |
 |
|
None of our appraisers is involved in any
type of employment, etc that could possibly result in a potential or actual
conflict of interest (i.e.: restoration, repair, fixing, painting, insuring,
buying/selling, exporting, transporting, etc of vehicles). |
 |
At the International Vehicle
Appraisers Network we understand collectable vehicles, the hobby, and the
marketplace. We are active in the hobby and we own the types of cars,
trucks, motorcycles, art, and Automobilia that we appraise.
Whenever you need an appraisal for a
Pre-Purchase Inspection, Insurance Value, Insurance Claim Settlement,
Selling a Car, Donation, Estate Settlement, etc remember our motto
“Hobbyists Helping Hobbyists” and contact your fellow hobbyists at the
International Vehicle Appraisers Network |
