Colin Irwin - Sales Professional

(231) 286-6919 - cirwin@classychassyautos.com

Meet Colin

Colin is the newest addition to the sales team at Classy Chassy, bringing nine years of automotive industry experience and a strong background in both sales and used vehicle operations.

Born and raised right here in Muskegon, Colin began his automotive career in a Business Development Center (BDC), where he learned the importance of communication, follow-up, and creating a great customer experience. From there, he moved into vehicle sales and later became a Used Car Manager, gaining extensive experience in vehicle appraisals, inventory management, and the used vehicle market.

That well-rounded background gives Colin a unique advantage when helping customers. Whether you're purchasing your next vehicle, evaluating a trade, or simply trying to determine the best option for your needs and budget, Colin brings both sales experience and a deep understanding of used vehicles to the table.

Outside of work, Colin is happily engaged and the proud dad of an almost two-year-old daughter. His family also includes an 11-year-old Border Collie. When he's not at the dealership, or enjoying family time, you'll usually find him enjoying the outdoors—golfing, hunting, or fishing.

Colin is excited to continue his automotive career in his hometown and looks forward to helping customers throughout Muskegon and West Michigan find the right vehicle at Classy Chassy.

Meet Don – Head Detailer

Don brings more than 40 years of automotive experience to the Classy Chassy team. An Orchard View/Muskegon native, he began working in the automotive industry in 1985 and has built a career that includes everything from detailing and oil changes to managing multiple car wash and quick-lube locations.

Detailing, however, has been part of Don’s life since high school—and it’s still the part of the business he enjoys most. For Don, there’s nothing quite like seeing the transformation of a vehicle and the satisfaction that comes with delivering a finished product he can be proud of.

Outside of work, Don has been married for 22 years and is the proud father of five grown children and grandfather to one grandbaby. When he isn’t making vehicles shine at Classy Chassy, you’ll likely find him enjoying a car show or roller skating.

We’re excited to have Don leading our detailing department and bringing his decades of experience, attention to detail, and pride in his work to every vehicle that comes through our shop.

Terry Beebe - Master Detailer

Meet Terry

With more than 25 years of professional detailing experience, Terry is the Master Detailer at Classy Chassy of North Muskegon. Born and raised in Grand Haven and a North Muskegon resident for the past decade, Terry has spent a lifetime perfecting the art of making vehicles look their absolute best.

His passion for automotive restoration began at an early age in his father's body shop, where he learned not only the craft of professional detailing but also the fundamentals of body work. Terry says the most rewarding part of his job is seeing the dramatic transformation from "before" to "after" and the satisfaction that comes from bringing a vehicle back to life.

When he's not at the dealership, Terry enjoys spending time with his wife, Jessica, whom he's been married to for seven years. He has two daughters, ages 19 and 23, who mean the world to him. And as a lifelong automotive enthusiast, Terry volunteers at car shows and fundraising events throughout the Midwest and loves being part of the classic car community. In his spare time, you'll often find him in the garage working on his prized 1964 Chevrolet Impala, a project that reflects his dedication to craftsmanship and his love for classic automobiles.

Whether it's a daily driver or a cherished collector car, Terry takes pride in treating every vehicle with the same level of care, attention to detail, and craftsmanship that has defined his career for more than two decades.

Sarah Jones - Owner

(231) 744-0707 - sjones@classychassyautos.com

With more than 20 years in the automotive industry, Sarah Jones brings extensive dealership, finance, and automotive business experience to Classy Chassy.

Throughout her career, Sarah has worked in nearly every facet of the automotive business—from dealership operations, sales, and finance to working with dealerships throughout Michigan. Her experience has given her a unique understanding of what goes into finding, evaluating, financing, and selling quality pre-owned vehicles.

Sarah and her husband, Brian, purchased Classy Chassy in 2026, excited for the opportunity to continue a longtime Muskegon-area business while bringing their own vision to its next chapter. For Sarah, that means building a dealership where customers can find quality vehicles, straightforward financing options, fair trade values, and a comfortable buying experience without the pressure people often associate with car shopping.

Outside of the dealership, Sarah stays busy with her husband, three kids, three dogs, and three sisters. She enjoys trail riding, haunted houses, shopping with her kids, and—despite spending more than 20 years in the car business—still gets genuinely excited about finding a great used car.

For Sarah, Classy Chassy is about more than selling cars. It’s about building a local business people trust, taking care of customers, and having a little fun along the way.

Tobin assists with vehicle detailing, is training as a Sales Professional Apprentice, and is also learning the ins and outs of becoming a Used Vehicle Buyer Apprentice. Before joining the Classy Chassy team, he spent several years detailing boats, developing a strong attention to detail and a commitment to quality workmanship that carries over into everything he does today.

Outside of work, Tobin is a dedicated student-athlete who enjoys playing football and basketball and spending time on the golf course whenever he can. He is also deeply family-oriented. For years, he has faithfully mowed his grandmother's lawn every week, a small example of the character, responsibility, and work ethic that define who he is.

Although he works part-time while balancing school and sports, Tobin continues to impress everyone around him with his maturity, determination, and willingness to learn. With his positive attitude and passion for the automotive industry, there's no doubt he has an incredibly bright future ahead.
