Yes, in exceptional cases Route 66 Auctions may decide to remove a vehicle from the auction. This is only done when there are valid reasons — for example if the vehicle does not comply with our guidelines, legal requirements, or if there are concerns regarding provenance, ownership, accuracy of the description, or authenticity.
During the assessment process, our experts make every effort to ensure that each vehicle meets our quality and submission standards. However, it may happen that new information becomes available after approval — for example through third parties, the police, or an intellectual property complaint. In such situations, we may be required to temporarily remove the vehicle while additional verification takes place.
If this happens, you as the seller will be informed and given the opportunity to provide additional information or evidence. You may also submit a formal objection to the decision, after which your case will be reviewed again.
Can I resubmit my vehicle?
Yes. If the reassessment confirms that your vehicle does comply with our guidelines and no legal or other issues remain, you may resubmit the vehicle. You will be notified once the review has been completed.
How can I prevent my vehicle from being removed?
To reduce the risk of removal, we recommend that you:
• Only submit vehicles for which you can demonstrate lawful ownership.
• Ensure the description is complete and accurate.
• Attach all relevant documentation (registration papers, invoices, export documents, etc.).
• Carefully review the submission guidelines before sending in your vehicle.
By providing transparent and correct information, you help us maintain a safe and reliable platform for both buyers and sellers.
