The Collector Car Podcast

This episode of The Collector Car Podcast marks a big personal milestone as I officially announce my upcoming book, The Enthusiast's Guide to Collector Cars. I share the inspiration behind the project, why I felt this book needed to exist, and who it's written for—from first-time enthusiasts to seasoned collectors. I also highlight the incredible group of contributors who helped shape the book, including respected voices from across the automotive, motorsports, museum, and collector communities. This episode is a behind-the-scenes look at how the book came together and why it's ultimately about one simple idea: why cars matter. #WhyCarsMatter #CollectorCars #CarCulture #AutomotiveHistory #EnthusiastCars #ClassicCars #CarCollectors #TheCollectorsCarPodcast #AutomotiveBook #CarCommunity Do you need help buying or selling your collector car?  Contact Greg directly at [email protected] or [email protected].

In this special walk-and-talk episode of The Collector Car Podcast, I'm joined by Lynn Park as we move through his incredible Shelby Cobra collection. Recorded on location, the conversation unfolds car by car—covering history, originality, racing lineage, and what separates truly special Cobras from the rest. As we walk, Lynn shares insights gained from years of collecting, restoring, and living with these cars, offering perspective you only get from hands-on experience. This episode is less about specs and more about stories, stewardship, and why Cobras continue to sit at the very top of the enthusiast hierarchy. A must-listen for anyone who appreciates provenance, authenticity, and the magic that only a Cobra can deliver. #TheCollectorCarPodcast #ShelbyCobra #CobraCollection #CarCulture #CollectorCars #AutomotiveHistory #WhyCarsMatter Do you need help buying or selling your collector car?  Contact Greg directly at [email protected] or [email protected].

Recorded live at the PRI Show in Indianapolis, this episode of The Collector Car Podcast features an in-depth conversation with Mike Spagnola, President & CEO of SEMA, on why PRI remains vital to the performance and racing world, how advocacy protects enthusiast culture, and what the future holds for the next generation of car people. In the second part of the episode, I'm joined by Kevin Darwish of Lost Angels Career Center to discuss the incredible Camaro drift car on display at PRI—designed and built by students. It's a powerful example of how education, mentorship, and hands-on experience are shaping the future of the automotive industry. #TheCollectorCarPodcast #SEMA #PRISHOW #PRI2025 #CarCulture #MotorsportsIndustry #CollectorCars #WhyCarsMatter #CarEnthusiast Do you need help buying or selling your collector car?  Contact Greg directly at [email protected] or [email protected].

In this episode of The Collector Car Podcast, I'm joined by automotive enthusiast, broadcaster, and all-around car guy Matthew "Motorator" D'Andria for a wide-ranging conversation on some of today's most compelling collector car topics. We kick things off with the Fox-body Mustang—why these once-overlooked 5.0 cars are finally getting respect, which trims and options collectors are chasing, and what separates a smart buy from a future headache. From there, we head to the opposite end of the spectrum with the Jaguar XJ220. We break down its misunderstood origin story, the expectations vs. reality moment at launch, and why today's market is starting to see the XJ220 less as a footnote and more as a true '90s supercar milestone. Along the way, Motorator and I zoom out to talk bigger-picture collector car trends—the pull of analog driving experiences, the influence of online auctions and social media, and how a new generation of enthusiasts is reshaping what's collectible next. Whether you're shopping for your first Fox body or watching the top end of the market, this episode offers insight, perspective, and a few strong opinions along the way.

In this episode of The Collector Car Podcast, I sit down with noted appraiser and Hagerty Price Guide founder Dave Kinney to unpack what's really happening in today's collector car market. We dig into the latest valuation trends across classics, muscle cars, modern exotics, and emerging "next-gen" collectibles—and why some segments are softening while others are catching fire. Dave and I talk about how interest rates, global events, and shifting demographics are shaping prices, plus the surprising rise of younger enthusiasts chasing everything from JDM icons to early Brass Era cars. We also discuss where auction results align (or don't) with private sale realities, how to read past the headlines, and what smart buyers and sellers should be paying attention to right now. Whether you're managing a serious collection, thinking about selling a car, or just trying to understand where the market is headed, this conversation with Dave offers grounded, data-driven insight you can actually use the next time you're browsing listings—or raising your hand at an auction. #CollectorCarMarket #DaveKinney #Hagerty #CarValues #ClassicCars #MarketTrends #CollectorCars #MuscleCars #ModernExotics #JDM #NextGenCollectibles #CarPodcast #AutomotivePodcast #CarInvesting #AuctionMarket #TheCollectorCarPodcast Do you need help buying or selling your collector car?  Contact Greg directly at [email protected] or [email protected].
