A few years ago I was exposed to the the Ridler Award when it was won by a local owner Ron Cizek. The build took place in my hometown, Omaha. After meeting top builders in the Midwest, I was informed another award contender was being built locally.
Fast forward a few years, and the 1934 Ford Coupe was finished and displayed at various shows, capturing national attention. After the circuit was completed, I was contracted to locate a private buyer for this incredible automobile.
In the Fall 2024 the new owner, a long time collector of 1932-34s, indicated this is the best ’32 all steel build he has ever came across. During this process I have met many great people in the rewarding business and can assist you with your dream machine!
We can help you safely transport your purchased or sold vehicle from point A to point B, taking extra care to ensure it arrives in the same condition it was in before it was moved. We partner with Passport Transport and uphold their reputation of world-class enclosed auto transport.

Memorabilia sales at Valve and Piston have escalated since 2020. Recently, Frank Kilton of Valve and Piston helped sell a worldwide collection of vintage automobiles, porcelain petroleum signage, gas pumps, milk glass globes, oil tins, vintage automotive testing machines, Coca-Cola items, and other vintage collectibles.
This service included valuation, professional photography, nationwide advertising, and targeted marketing. Within six days, Valve and Piston established several qualified buyers. We screened candidates to ensure the legacy collection would transfer to another museum. The final agreement was signed on October 16, 2023. The collection is being relocated to Kansas City, Missouri in Spring 2024.
We are interested in continuing your legacy. Contact us to learn more.
