That video clip of the museum.. Just about the best 40 mins I can remember… Pure magic. Thanks Aceman and Matt!
Pretty special batch of toys. I look forward to getting the stories on some of the others.
Oh the green Jag, be still my heart. Perfect vehicle……….perfect.
Who wants a house, I could live in that garage for the rest of my life.
I’d Do Anything for These Cars (But I Won’t Do That)
Bruce is a true “Gear head” and as a fan I really appreciate the fact he shares his passion and collection. With his diverse collection, he usually has a car at the concourse as well as the smaller “hot rod” and local events. The world needs more “Bruce Meyer’s”…
What an awesome collection – eclectic, but hitting all the high points! Thanks for sharing.
@Greg Birch: Ping me if you’re ever in central Oregon… we’ll go for a drive in my E-type. 😉

Wow. Great segment. That Gullwing is absolutely gorgeous!
Mmmmmmmmmm…935.
One of the most interesting car related videos I have ever seen, thanks to CarCast for shooting this.
Good job. Nice and very selective collection. Quality over quantity.
BRUCE,
BRUCE YOU HAVE THE BEST COLLECTORS CAR IN THE WORLD.
THE AGIE # 98 INDY WINNER. MY FAVORITE ALL TIME
Density-wise, yes he does; there are more (in number) amazing cars in that room than you could imagine.
I don’t think he would appreciate that though, not that sort of appreciation.
“Best” is a dumb word.
great show, cant wait for the return show on the other cars & bikes in that garage.
Thank you for sharing this amazing tour. Gotta love how Adam brings up Newman’s Z31 racecar at the end…!
I usually make snide remarks, but I am bettered by this. So not today. No silly snide comments today.
This was better than anything in Jay’s garage b/c the cars were obviously higher quality, an overwhelming quality; the collection has focus.
One common denominator to the collection was the adjective “lithe”. I was stunned by that. The Ferrari he showed after the Cobra was hypnotic. “Small hips” he said.
Let’s pretend there is a Sports Car Museum for the “people”. No BS, just sports cars, light, sweet, sports cars — amazing pieces of machinery and your price to ride is: $500 for 2 minutes in the parking lot.
(Of course they would steal it. Of course they would. It would never work.)
Share your wealth with fellow enthusiasts.
Good job. Thanks.
I like how Adam corrected himself. Audi are the people making diesel racers today, not peugeot, which sounds like a thank-you fart.
