It literally broke my heart when asked "do you drive these cars?" and he responded "No". 😢 Literally the worst thing for a car is just sitting.... I can understand something ultra rare which can't be easily or ever replaced, but at least those ones should be started weekly to monthly and run through the gears in the space.... the other ones should be exercised at least monthly on the road in good weather. You need a car-caretaker to live in the cooler and exercise, start, keep clean and or, potentially show these beauties off.... me and the 2 cats are free 😅 Get these things out, let people see them, let kids see what real automobiles used to be and how damn near every year a model would be updated, not like today when it takes 5-10yrs for a car to just get a slight visual update at most.

Parts are usually cheap and easy to find, all the problems have been ironed out by that time, etc. I remember a friend had some kind of ‘58 Chrysler and he needed trim pieces from the junkyard. It HAD to be from a ‘58, even though ‘57 and ‘59 was a similar design the part was different. I don’t miss that

This was probably the best episode ever... Paul is incredible. The things he has accomplished in racing, are things I can only dream of, and his car collection is absolutely incredible, but most important, he seems very humble and down to earth. I like that he has some of everything, not everything has to be 100% original, and he has stories for a lot of the cars. The Torino has so many cords going underneath of it, it looks like it's on life support LOL... When I saw the shiney spot on the hood, I knew immediately what happened. My best friends dad bought a brand new 1970 Cobra Jet Torino. It was white with blue interior. It had the rear window slats too, but his had the Magnum 500 wheels. Anyway, my friends sisters were going to surprise their dad and wax the black on the hood because it wasn't shiney. Needless to say, his dad was very surprised when he saw the car. It was an awesome car. It was always garaged and he hardly ever drove it, he drove his 73 F-250 pickup most of the time. Unfortunately he got MS really bad and one night the house caught on fire, and there was no way he could get it out. It was all he could do to get out of the house himself...

@theguythatcouldfly2 ай бұрын
Agreed - awesome collection! I would think that anytime there's more than 1 bar, it goes from a "bar" to a "cage." It's just that not all roll cages are created equal. More is required with more speed. That car isn't going to get to 200 MPH so it doesn't need the full cage they put into drag and drive cars.

Thanks for sharing with us Mr. Gentilozzi! I'm constantly telling myself it's a good thing I don't have a larger garage, and that I should put up a larger garage. It's funny to know that there really isn't a limit to that instinct.

The red Nova at 11:45 is a 1970, not a 69. 70-72 style marker lights and 70 steering wheel horn shroud with the Pebble grain, not the Madrid as 69 would have.

Correct, good catch. It’s a 1970. The clear marker lenses in the front bumper is unique to 1970.

that nova story is complete bs, my buddy sold Paul the car maybe 4 years ago. Car is absolutely full of mud, definitely not all original.

Could listen to Paul in his own episode, the knowledge he has is priceless and educational

I think it is great to finally find an olds enthusiast. I love all of them but the 65's are my favorite. My brothers dad has the one that has been in the family since new somewhere still, It is a 442 holiday coupe which I like the most. Thanks for another great video.

I watched Paul race, and rooted for him in Trans-Am for many years. I miss the driver and I miss the series. Both American racing legends.
