NicKey Appraisal Services

Through ‘The NicKey Performance’ we offer expert appraisal services for most any special-interest vehicle. Our services start with a one-page Insurance Appraisal — decoding the VIN, trim tag and data plate (where possible), plus a visual inspection rating — up to a complete on-the-rack, top-to-bottom, inside-out report covering all major components, accessories, body, paint, glass and trim.

All vehicles are inspected in person at our facility by one of our appraisers. Please complete the data sheet and submit it via email; we’ll contact you to schedule a convenient time. We also travel to shows, events and auctions throughout the country, so off-site appraisals can sometimes be arranged at those venues.

We provide appraisal assistance for complete collections of multiple vehicles from varying manufacturers, and we issue formal opinion letters on request.

  • VIN and trim-tag/data-plate decoding
  • One-page insurance appraisal with photos
  • Full on-the-rack mechanical inspection
  • Written opinion letters on request
  • Multi-vehicle collection appraisals
  • On-site appraisals at shows, auctions and events
