Meet John Scannell, Your Austin, TX Vehicle Appraiser

John’s passion for cars began in 1967, when his father, a former Indianapolis 500 driver, took him to his first race. That early introduction sparked a lifelong fascination with all things automotive. By age 10, John was learning to change oil, and by 14, he was buying old junkers and getting them back on the road. Over the years, his hands-on experience expanded to repairing and riding dirt bikes, as well as working on tractors and other farm equipment.
His current collection includes a Plymouth Superbird, a custom Hemi Dodge Magnum, and a Kawasaki KZ1000 Z1-R. His past vehicles have included a Mercury Cougar convertible, several Corvettes, a Cadillac STS-V, an El Camino SS, and a Honda CBX, among many others.
For John, cars have never been just a hobby. They’ve been a lifelong passion built on decades of hands-on experience.

Step 1
We Confirm the Appraisal Purpose
We start by confirming that a diminished value appraisal is the right fit for your situation. We may ask about the accident, repairs, insurance claim status, vehicle details, and how you plan to use the report.
-
Step 2
We Inspect and Document the Vehicle
Your appraiser meets you at the vehicle’s location to inspect and document the vehicle. We take detailed photos, record the vehicle’s condition, review visible repairs, and note features that may affect value, including mileage, options, upgrades, prior condition, and accident-related details.
-
Step 3
Our Research Team Reviews Market Data and Comps
After the inspection, the photos and notes are reviewed by our research team. They evaluate current market data, comparable vehicles when applicable, the vehicle’s condition, and other factors that may affect diminished value.
-
Step 4
You Receive a Certified Appraisal Report
Once complete, you receive a certified appraisal report documenting the vehicle, the appraisal purpose, relevant research, and the professional opinion of diminished value. You can use the report to support your insurance claim, settlement discussion, legal matter, or ownership records.

Whether you're insuring a collector car, considering a vehicle purchase, settling an estate, arranging financing, or simply need an independent opinion of value, John Scannell can help you document what your vehicle is worth and why.
