They stood when called, they gave their all,
Their courage answers freedom's call.

Thinking About Buying a Vintage American Car at U.S. Auction? Here's What Most Buyers Miss.

Vintage automobile auctions are booming — and for good reason. There's nothing quite like finding that rare collector model you've been hunting for years.

But once the hammer falls, the real challenge begins: getting your prized vehicle home safely. (How about this classic 1962 Corvette.)

Over the past 40+ years, I've helped more than 400 customers export thousands of vehicles to the Caribbean — including vintage automobiles that demand an extra level of care and expertise.

Here's what vintage buyers typically worry about:

▶ Finding a transport company that truly understands the special requirements of a classic vehicle
▶ Ensuring the car is handled with care — and that parts, components, and restoration pieces travel alongside it
▶ Navigating the paperwork when your vehicle carries 50+ year old documentation

These aren't small concerns. A single misstep can damage a vehicle that took decades to find.

That's where I come in.

Our nationwide network of transport specialists handles everything — brand new cars, vintage collectibles, salvage vehicles, and heavy equipment — from every corner of the U.S.

My goal is simple: make buying a car at a U.S. auction feel just as easy as buying one down the street.

Drop me a DM if you're exploring your options. I'm happy to answer any questions and walk you through the process.

This Mother's Day, we want to take a moment to pause from the everyday and celebrate something truly special — the mothers, grandmothers, and mother figures in all of our lives.

Whether she raised you with a firm hand or a gentle one, whether she's still with you or lives on in your heart, a mother's love is like nothing else in this world. It is quiet, constant, and completely extraordinary.

We'd like to share this little poem as our gift to you this season:

〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️

To Every Mother

A mother's love needs no grand words,
it shows in every little thing —
the meals, the hugs, the late-night calm,
the hope she carries every spring.

She gives before she's ever asked,
she stays when days grow long and hard.
The greatest gift the world has known
lives quietly in every heart.

So here's to her, in every form —
the fierce, the tender, the strong.
A mother's love is home itself,
the place where we all belong.

〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️

From all of us at Bon Trade, we wish you and your loved ones a beautiful and peaceful Mother's Day.

With warmth and gratitude,

Stephen Perret-Gentil

From Junkyard to Legend — The Toyota Supra Story Is Far From Over.
Do you remember the moment Brian O'Conner's orange Toyota Supra roared across the screen in The Fast and the Furious? That car didn't just win a street race — it launched a global car culture movement.

Here's what most fans don't know: the iconic Supra started as a stock white car purchased by technical advisor Craig Lieberman for just $24,000, upgraded to 450 horsepower, and taken to car shows, where it caught the eye of the film's transportation coordinator. (source: SlashGear)

Universal repainted it orange, added the now-famous "Nuclear Gladiator" graphics, and cinema history was made.

The "hero" Supra later sold at Barrett-Jackson for a jaw-dropping $550,000. (source: HotCars)

A generation of drivers grew up watching these films, and car culture has never been the same. (sourcew: HotCars)

The MK IV Supra is still out there for dedicated enthusiasts — and fully restored examples can command $60,000 and beyond, with values trending upward. I've personally helped clients import right-hand drive models into the U.S., like the one pictured here. Vintage auctions are a great place to start your search, but the import process has details you need to get right before you buy; not after.

Serious about tracking one down? Send me a DM — let's make sure your dream car doesn't become a border nightmare.

We proudly support the Help the Schoolchildren Foundation of Curaçao, an organization that gathers donated goods from the Netherlands and other benefactors to provide essential resources to schools, associations, and foundations across Curaçao, Aruba, and Bonaire.

Paradise Found: Why Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao Stole My Heart — and Will Steal Yours Too
I may be a little biased, but do not think I am exagarating.
Check out our latest blog post

I have been writing about the Caribbean for years, with Aruba and Curaçao always at the center of those stories. Growing up, these islands shaped who I am, and that connection never fades. There is a quiet pride that comes with calling the ABC Islands home — a genuine appreciation for living in a...
