Collecting cars has been an obsession for longer than I can remember. Growing up in Brooklyn New York, surrounded by cars from the 50s and early 60s when US automakers were at their design peak. Great two- tone paint schemes, lots of gleaming chrome and tailfins reaching for the sky; that's where my obsession began.
I found my first vintage car in1979 when my Dodge Demon was wrecked. I found a 1963 Corvair broken down on the side of the road whose owner had had 'enough' and wanted to get rid of it! $150 later it was mine, and it started there.
From that point, I have bought and sold 200+ cars over the past 25 years; buying, restoring, selling, and making a lot of great friends along the way with this hobby.
Renting the cars out for movies and TV productions has become a very interesting part of my life, meeting many famous people along the way.
