Woodside Credit Renews Exclusive Barrett-Jackson Partnership, Driving Collector Car Financing Growth
Woodside Credit's renewed exclusive partnership with Barrett-Jackson auctions strengthens the collector car financing market by providing streamlined loan processing and expanding accessibility for buyers.
Woodside Credit, America's leading lender specializing in classic and collector car financing, has renewed its exclusive partnership with Barrett-Jackson, continuing a 14-year collaboration that defines the future of financing at collector car auctions. The partnership extension comes after the successful Fall Auction at WestWorld of Scottsdale, where the relationship generated over a million dollars in collector car loans through Woodside Credit's specialized financing program.
The longstanding collaboration between the two industry leaders makes financing more accessible for Barrett-Jackson bidders through Woodside Credit's streamlined process. At every Barrett-Jackson auction, Woodside Credit maintains a full team of underwriters, loan experts, and support staff located in the Auction Office, providing comprehensive onsite services including vehicle verifications, loan processing, and coordination of gate releases. This integrated approach allows buyers to complete multiple purchase steps from one convenient location, enhancing the overall auction experience.
"We're proud to be part of Barrett-Jackson's positive momentum," said Mitch Shatzen, President and Chief Operating Officer of Woodside Credit. "Our industry-leading loan program is at its best when paired with events that represent the heart of the enthusiast community. Together, we make financing easy, straightforward, and an exceptional experience for our clients."
The partnership's significance extends beyond convenience, representing a strategic alignment that supports the growing collector car market. With over $4 billion in loans since its establishment in 2003, Woodside Credit brings substantial financial expertise to the partnership, offering terms up to 15 years and loans up to $1,000,000 through its commonsense lending practices. The company's continued presence at Barrett-Jackson events, including the upcoming flagship auction scheduled for January 17-25, 2026 at WestWorld of Scottsdale, demonstrates the partnership's enduring value to the collector car community.
Bidders can now initiate Woodside Credit pre-approval directly within the Barrett-Jackson bidder registration process, with early registration pricing available through December 1, 2025, at Barrett-Jackson.com. This integration further streamlines the purchasing experience for collectors and enthusiasts, removing barriers to financing and supporting market growth. The partnership's renewal underscores the importance of specialized financial services in maintaining the vitality of the collector car industry, where traditional lending institutions often fail to understand the unique value propositions of vintage and exotic vehicles.
Woodside Credit's exclusive endorsement by Barrett-Jackson positions the lender as the primary financial resource for auction participants, creating a symbiotic relationship that benefits both companies while serving the collector car community. The partnership's continued success, evidenced by the substantial loan volume generated during recent auctions, highlights the growing demand for specialized financing solutions in the collector car market and the importance of trusted financial partnerships in driving industry growth.
