How Fully Sorted Works
Find the specialists who keep your car running — then buy, sell and research it in one place.
Fully Sorted is a collector car services hub first: an owner-reviewed directory of the people who do the work. Alongside it sits a direct owner-to-owner marketplace with flat listing fees, and a research center built on real sold prices.
Know before the wire goes — real comps, owner-reviewed specialists, and a deal you own end to end.
For Owners
Getting work done on your car
Inspection, detailing, transport, mechanical, restoration, body and paint — the specialists collectors actually use, rated by the owners who hired them.
Tell us what the car needs
Search by what you need — pre-purchase inspection, ceramic coating, enclosed transport, a marque specialist — or browse fixed-price gigs with upfront pricing.
Read the owner record
Every provider profile carries reviews and comments from the owners who actually hired them, plus an engagement level earned through real work on the platform.
Request a quote or book a gig
Message a shop or specialist directly for custom work, or book a fixed-price gig when you already know what you need. You talk to the person doing the work.
Leave your own review
When the job's done, your review becomes part of the record the next owner reads. That's how the directory gets better — collectively, in the open.
For Service Providers
Joining the Fully Sorted directory
Detailers, inspectors, mechanics, restorers, transporters — the skilled specialists who make collector car ownership possible.
Apply to be listed
Tell us about your shop or practice, specialties, and the kind of work you do best. Applications are reviewed by a human — no bots, no algorithms.
Get your profile live
Applications are reviewed by a human before a profile goes live. From there your reputation is built in the open — by the owners you work for.
Build your profile
Photos of your work, your specialties, your pricing tier. The profile is yours to keep current.
Get found by owners who care
Collectors searching for detailers, inspectors, mechanics, restorers, and transporters find you — ranked by the work you've done and the owners who vouch for it.
For Sellers
Selling a car on Fully Sorted
List your car
Upload photos, fill in the basics (year, make, model, mileage, VIN), and tell the story of your car. It takes about 10 minutes.
We polish the listing
Our AI drafts a clean description in a tone collectors actually read. You review, edit, and publish — or Chris can write a personal take for featured listings.
Real buyers see it
Your listing goes live on the Fully Sorted marketplace, the daily browse feed, and is indexed for search. What you pay is what you saw before you clicked.
You own the deal
Buyers message and make offers directly. You decide who to respond to and how to structure the sale, and you close it on your own terms.
For Buyers
Finding your next car
Browse honest listings
Filter by era, category, price, and location. Every listing shows real photos, VIN, mileage, and — where available — comparable recent sale prices.
Check the comps
Our Value Guide pulls real auction data so you know what a car actually trades for — not what someone hopes to get.
Message the seller
Ask questions, request more photos, set up an inspection. All communication happens directly between you and the owner.
Close the deal your way
Bank transfer, escrow service, cashier's check — whatever you agree on. Fully Sorted is the introduction; you run the transaction.
Research & Value Guide
Knowing what a car is really worth
The same data sits under every listing and every quote — so nobody in the transaction is guessing.
Check the Value Guide
Real sold-price comps from auction results and reported private sales — so you know what a car actually trades for, not what someone hopes to get.
Read the model encyclopedia
History, specs, production numbers and known trouble spots, model by model, with sources cited so you can check the work yourself.
Decode a VIN, compare two cars
Decode any 1981-or-newer VIN for factory specs and open recalls, or put two models head to head on rarity, value and running costs.

Frequently Asked
Questions worth answering up front
How do I know a provider is good?
Trust is built in the open: every provider profile carries reviews and comments from real owners, and providers earn engagement levels as they complete work, respond to clients, and build up their track record on the platform. Applications are also reviewed before a profile goes live, but the community record is what tells you who's good.
What does it cost to hire someone through Fully Sorted?
Browsing the directory and requesting quotes is free. Fixed-price gigs show the provider's price upfront before you book — no hidden markups on the quote you're given.
What does it cost to list a car?
Three tiers, all one-time: Standard $9.99, Featured $29.99, Premium $49.99. The first 100 listings are free for founding members. Your listing fee is one-time and paid up front.
How is Fully Sorted different from other collector-car listing sites?
Most listing sites in our category fall into two camps. Classifieds sites charge a flat listing fee (typically $50–$99) and leave you to handle the sale. Curated online-auction sites are time-limited and take a percentage of the sale price — usually 4.5–5% — either as a buyer's premium or a seller's success fee. Fully Sorted is a flat-fee peer-to-peer listing site: you pay a one-time flat fee ($9.99, $29.99, or $49.99) with no auction clock running on your sale.
Do you handle payment or escrow?
No. We're a listing platform, not a financial intermediary. Buyers and sellers agree on their preferred payment method — bank wire, escrow service, cashier's check. We recommend using a licensed escrow company for transactions over $25,000.
Can I edit or remove my listing?
Yes — log into your dashboard any time. You can update photos, change the price, mark the car as sold, or pull the listing entirely.
What kinds of cars belong on Fully Sorted?
Anything with collector interest — muscle cars, European classics, JDM, vintage, modern classics, barn finds, and project cars. If it has a story, it belongs here.
