Top Secret Car Collections!

Awesome pics of some great cars! Do you have any of that Porsche race car in the background? Maybe a 935 or something similar??

Very cool Mike! Thanks for sharing!

Wow! Thank you so much for sharing these pictures with us Mike, & yes, please do share some more . . . :props:

Amazing whats out there, what has survived & been preserved for people to view & enjoy. Some beautiful machinery on display there. Love the race boat & the Iso is a real treat to see. Not alot of people have even heard of an Iso let alone see one in the flesh. Only a few weeks ago We stumbled across two in a motel car park whilst walking home. One Iso coupe & the other a four door saloon - unsure of the models or years but at a guess, they would've been late 60s, early 70s. Beautiful.

Like yourself Mike the boat has my attention. Am I seeing a dual overhead cam supercharged four cylinder from 1929?

Bruce is a great guy and I'm glad he has the means to preserve these historic cars.

The Porsche is a Kremer. If I'm not mistaken, I believe Bruce traded the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum an historic early Indy car they wanted for the museum for this car.

I think the black roadster is the historic Doane Spencer car. Early and important hot rod from the '50's.

Awesome pics! Would love to see more!

I saw the only Bizarrinni made with a V12 at the San Diego Automotive museum about a year ago. I believe there were only 3 made total. 2 with corvette V8s, one with the V12. Some say that there were as many as 5 made, but two have been destroyed...

Here's the good news...

I have pictures of all the cars in the museum. :xyxthumbs:

Here's the less good news...

Bob and me have been called back to the Petersen Museum to wipe down all 4 cars we detailed to remove any dust that's accumulated over the last 3 days.

The Petersen Museum has just undergone an 80 million dollar renovation and even as we were detailing these 4 cars there was still sanding, painting and construction going on and thus dust is all over the cars.

Out TV crew is filming all 4 cars this morning getting the "beauty shots" so we're heading over right now to wipe them all down.

We'll be going back over at 3:00pm to film the actual opening of the doors to the public with AJ, Bob and me doing the actual door opening! And I think this will also be seen on this episode.

Have to go...

Sorry but I didn't get the story on this Ford hotrod...

That's Bob Morris' Deuce roadster. Along with Doane Spencer’s 32 Ford Roadster and Bob McGee's 32 Ford Roadster Highboy, they are some of the most important hot rods and they all belong to Bruce.

That Ferrari in the back is probably the most important car in Bruce's collection. It's worth a LOT of money. I have owned a CMC 1:18 replica of it.

Didn't get the story on this Bugatti either as we we're towards the end of the tour...

http://www.marine31online.com/gallery/data/550/BM_CC_022.jpg

That's a 1935 Bugatti Type 57.

Bruce Meyer is probably one of the most knowledgeable car collectors in the world.

Yes... I have pictures of everything....

I'll try to get them up today now that I'm back in the office.

Yesterday, my first day back in the office was kind of hectic... lots going on... one thing for sure... moving into 2016, if you're a "car guy" you need to be on this forum.

I'd recommend signing up for the AG Newsletter too as that way when something is coming up that you could be a part of it will be announced in the newsletter.

That black deuce just screams bad ass! I love watching all the progression of hot rodding, but something about a clean black ford that's just timeless.
