Oregons Private $500 Million Dollar Classic Car Collection: Brothers Salem Oregon

[@BossaNovaLife]

Check out the Brothers Car Collection for yourself this May! All proceeds go to the Oregon Peace Officers Association. The collection is only open to the public a few times a year. Don't Miss out! brotherscollection.ticketspice.com/sunday-may-19th-opoa-?fbclid=IwAR1ATLs6VU8E7-V-QUDFO66hgcVRbRDilG_P3SYKsLXr1dhUn39EOGEYvpo

Anyone going might want to buy multiple tickets. With 600 cars and only 2 hours per ticket you've only got 12 seconds per car. I don't know if all 600 are on display though. That's just how large Google says the collection is.

[@BossaNovaLife]

@@TheInsaneShecklador the have around 350 on display at any given time. Vehicles are rotated.

[@TheInsaneShecklador]

@@BossaNovaLife Thanks for clarifying. That still works out to only around 20 seconds per vehicle for a 2 hour tour.

[@tom_hoots]

@@TheInsaneShecklador - Yes, I see where you "choose a time." But.... I have been there a number of other times, with other charitable organizations, and I just find it really hard to believe that "they will clear the place" every two hours. I expect it's most likely that people won't hang around for much longer than a couple of hours, and this is just a way to try and manage the number of people they expect to get. I truly expect that you can hang around about as long as you would like, keeping in mind that you should be polite and sensitive to the crowds that might show up. All of that said, I disagree 100% with the statement that "the collection is only open to the public a few times per year." My impression is that it opens to charitable groups just about every weekend, throughout the year. And I've never seen "time slots" like this visit, before. I recommend doing a search for "Brothers Collection Tickets," and you might likely find a bunch of opportunities benefiting a wide range of charitable organizations. No, it's not "open to the public" like a museum, but they invite charitable organizations to use the Collection as part of their fund-raising campaigns. You need to be persistent with your searching -- you'll be more likely to find postings for visits that happened in the past. But keep at it, and over time, you should find a number of opportunities to support some charitable organizations by visiting the Brothers Collection.

[@daveakerman712]

​@@tom_hoots You are correct. The 2 hour time slots are what was determined the avg. time spent and also a fair amount of time to view and no there isn't any clearing out. We've done a number of public events like this and it works well. Keeps it viewable for everyone. There are only a handful of public events per year where anyone can purchase a ticket and come in. Each of those have a specific local charity as is the one coming up in May but as you mentioned it has groups coming through frequently. Mostly groups that have paid just to come see it. The main thing for everyone to understand is that 100% of the ticket sales go to local charities regardless of how its been set up. (Not after any expenses either 100% goes) 100s of thousands is raised each year for everything from fallen officer foundation to safe shelters for women to Christmas for foster children ect. It is an epic win-win!

My first classic car was a 1971 Cougar XR7 351 Windsor 2 barrel carburetor which I paid $400 dollars while I was in high school in 1982. Those were the good old days 👍🇨🇦

[@BossaNovaLife]

Nice!

[@robertwayne352]

I have no words. Paradise!!! It's paradise!!! Another great video!

[@BossaNovaLife]

Thank you so much!

[@MrSlingblade69]

Love the museum and y’all done the best video ever. Sad part is these amazing cars will really never be driven again which is ok in one way but it bothers me in another way. They need to be driven.

[@brucenixon4157]

Duke and Lola, an amazing mega valued car collection. Many thanks for sharing your experience and as always, I love Lola's gold" car preferences!! If there was a Tiki bar, she would have been in seventh heaven......

[@BossaNovaLife]

Hahahaha

Very cool, really enjoyed!! 🙂 👍

thank you for sharing!

[@BossaNovaLife]

My pleasure!

[@toejam503]

Only remember seeing purple Gremlins with white striping, way back when. Worked with a guy with one and had a friend with one ( purple/white stripes). A friend bought one new, Forest Green w Gold stripes and 304 4 speed. Awesome display!

[@BossaNovaLife]

Fun times

[@audio6652]

I have seen lots of car collection but this one tops lot them special all American cars brand new looking wow what treat to be able to see them in person I am happy just to see them on video but in person crazy 👍

[@BossaNovaLife]

It was overwhelming

[@TreDeuce-qw3kv]

The one that "Tops them all" is the 'America's Car Museum' _ Tacoma, Washington. It is about 175-miles north of Salem.

[@williamterry9819]

Thanks for the video! Appreciate it! Some of your muscle car comments are less than accurate, but the tour is appreciated.

[@BossaNovaLife]

Amazing collection for sure. We don't cover Muscle Cars on our channel, so my knowledge is not the best. As I stated.

[@williamcooper2368]

Awesome video, U showed us the TUCKER. There is so many cars . Some just walk right by the Tucker.❤

[@BossaNovaLife]

Glad you enjoyed. Very limited time to shoot meant we had like 20 seconds per car... by the time I shot that it was actually the last thing I shot of the day, so I let the time tick down and we walked out. Its edited out of sequence as all videos are. :)

[@TimGi1]

🤩 An absolute Dream Garage - I‘ve seen such a fantastic Show years ago at the GM Heritage Collection in Detroit 👍✌️👋🇺🇸

[@BossaNovaLife]

They have twice that many cars, they switch them up for each quarter when it's open for one day.

[@Grasshopper0122]

Nice tour….but you really should have had a “pre tour” with someone that knew the collection. You can’t see everything in one pass, it is sooo overwhelming. But you were standing right next to Jeff Gordon’s 599 Ferrari……and during your walk through the Ferrari section, you can see a prancing horse in the background. This is the Holy Grail of Holy Grails…..the horse that stood behind Enzo Ferrari’s desk for many years and the inspiration for the Ferrari logo !!!

[@BossaNovaLife]

We had two hours alone. The goal was to get others to go see it, not give away all the secrets.

[@BossaNovaLife]

I actually asked if they had a guide but it was just us and the lady at the front desk.

[@bobpendergraft8422]

I was born and raised in Salem and I've never heard of this place..... And I'm a car guy 😮

[@BossaNovaLife]

The owners are very secretive

[@christophertaylor9100]

That is awesome. I live in Salem and never knew this was even in town. Doesn't look like they are doing any more open houses though

[@darkridedracula]

You two have such a fun channel.....thanks for the adventures! =)

[@BossaNovaLife]

Thanks! We do our best after 13 years. Haha

[@2nGeneva]

Thanks for sharing. Freakin awesome collection!

[@BossaNovaLife]

Unbelievable collection! Thank you for sharing this! Love your channel 👍🏼

I just got tickets to take my son in may. He’s so excited

[@BossaNovaLife]

Nice!

[@icyempower0781]

How did you get the tickets? I live in Eugene and I want to go for my birthday, but I have no idea where to sign up.

[@taverncustoms]

was the oldest running Chevrolet INDY car not there anymore. my absolute favorite car of the collection when I last was there.

[@BossaNovaLife]

They rotate cars every three months for each event.

[@MaxDoubt2]

I live 4 hours away and would love to see these cars. I know it's closed to the public but before I die I want to go there. Just got to figure out how.

[@BossaNovaLife]

Look up the Brothers Car Collection online. They have quarterly openings to the public for a day.

[@deandee8082]

nice collection sir and you take real good care of them.. PROPS! I see so many collection and they are neglected for the most, all kinds of reasons I spose so not getting down on anyone but this collector for makes sure it gets done regardless and this is nice to see . . . 👍

[@ABfromWindsor]

Assume collection, thanks for sharing.❤

[@BossaNovaLife]

My pleasure 😊

[@Jim-x6b]

I live in Salem, and had no idea this place existed.

[@BossaNovaLife]

That was our goal!

[@kevinm3751]

A buddy of mine got a 69 Camaro SS but it had the checker board RS interior. We thought it was some aftermarket but after doing some investigation he found out it was the last SS of the line and they mistook it for the RS that was on the line after it. So its a factory mess up. As soon as he found out he covered the car and it has been garaged ever since. That was back in 1977.

[@phill2009c6]

Good job on the video

[@BossaNovaLife]

Thanks for the visit

[@bw082731]

Amazing but very sad they will never see black top again

[@BossaNovaLife]

It felt like walking through a graveyard of yester-year

[@Silver_Rayn]

I showed my daughter the racks of barracudas. She asked if people were going to sit on them while they cruised. I said no you go see them like in a museum. She said, "What's the point?" She just doesn't understand. As a female, people usually don't understand my love of muscle cars.

[@iainmelville9411]

I concur. . . WOW ! ! ! 😮

[@davidcrawford219]

Best day ever 🎉

[@johnmuller3361]

Saw this collection on GYC!

[@BossaNovaLife]

I have no idea what GYC is, but cool. Hope you check it out in person.

[@BossaNovaLife]

Oh yeah. Grave Yard Cars. Is that still on TV?

[@toejam503]

Cruella de Ville's car was a custom build Panther deVille, 12 cyl. Jaguar engine and designed after a Bugatti, Royale

[@BossaNovaLife]

Craziness indeed

[@chuckwright993]

My first car was a 61 Corvair I bought it when I was 12 years old for $22 and drove it everywhere for my first classic car was a 58 Impala 348 4-speed and I'd be surprised if there wasn't any Maverick Grabbers in this collection I had 302 4-speed and I took that out and put a boss 302 in it I don't know if they came out Factory with the boss in it or not that was when I was in high school

[@swooshdave]

Don’t worry. Everyone says “wow” as much or more than you while walking around there. I stopped counting just in the European section.

[@BossaNovaLife]

It's an impressive Museum.

[@craphittingthefan2360]

I live in Oregon and did not know about this car collection unfortunately their web site does not mention the date of the next showing or even a phone number to call

Hey I took her out for a nice dinner after.

[@Ramon-k1x]

The lady is feeling no pain what so ever.

[@chuckwright993]

I believe James Bond 007 drove in Aston Martin instead of a Mercedes and also I'm not seeing any Studebakers in there are the 58 Golden Hawk with the Paxton blower was way ahead of his time and also the 37 coupe Express pickup and the Avanti R3

[@BossaNovaLife]

Yes. This was a mild joke. Just us messing around with friends.

[@TreDeuce-qw3kv]

What no Teens or 20's cars or VW's(?) or the three most important cars in automotive history, The Ford Models 'T' and 'A'. and VW Bug

[@BossaNovaLife]

This is a Private Collection. The owners are a secret. Clearly they are into specific cars.

[@davidcrawford219]

Corvette 🎉

[@erikfrick8312]

Love your stuff, but did you really just gloss over the Porsches and that 23 window there? 😔

[@BossaNovaLife]

Frankly I know nothing about Porche or Volkswagon. Sorry man, I am 100% Pre 1965 Kustom Kulture... and the rest is just extra to me. LOL

[@jaxjax5322]

Where are the sports trucks 😩454ss

[@2891rik]

Chevy CamAro ;)

[@BossaNovaLife]

Yes.... We.... Know........

[@TheChuckoluck]

My friend bought a new 1970 Roadrunner with a 426 Hemi and he lasted the whole summer until he lost his driver's license. The car was unbelievable it was so fast. It was impossible to do under 60 in the car. So in the fall of 1970 he sold it with under 3,000 miles on it. I understand the Tesla is much faster but it's not the same somehow. There's a new Tesla, it's going to do 0 to 60 in 1 second. Just not the same though.

[@BossaNovaLife]

Fun story

[@John-N-541-ym7dx]

Did not see a Porsche 959!

[@daveakerman712]

There is one there.

[@roberthunt8883]

Is that place a BONDO FREE zone?

[@BossaNovaLife]

Considering how much money they have, I would assume. We didn't see a single vehical that looked like it had been repaired. Even under the cars are perfect. All original.

[@William-Bill-Munny]

A 1963 Split window Z06 and he just walks on by??????😢😢😢

[@William-Bill-Munny]

1965 Chevelle Z16!!! 1971 GTX 440 six pack with a sunroof!?!?! I suppose money must open many doors WOW!!

[@BossaNovaLife]

Sounds like you will want to go check out the museum... which was our goal.

[@maeve4686]

You spelled Camaro WRONG !

[@BossaNovaLife]

Yes we know it was edited incorrectly. Can't fix it now.

[@daleroberts8772]

Question for lola what car would she take home?

[@BossaNovaLife]

She isn't a muscle car fan, but she did like that Pink 1965 Plymouth

[@nic_danger]

*Camaro, not Camero. *Hurst not Hertz, the Superbird is a Plymouth, not Dodge. 😊

[@BossaNovaLife]

Yes we know.

[@MrSlingblade69]

Get more likes,subscribes and views and Lola can take one home. My wife and I have 2 pre war model A hot rods. Anything she wants I get! And anything I want I get. Beautiful marriage!

[@toejam503]

Camaro has 2 a's

[@BossaNovaLife]

No one can correct spelling in a video thats already posted, but thanks.

[@pravnav]

That lisp is pretty annoying

[@Phil-RS]

At 16:50, that 55 shoebox Chevy drag/rod custom, is seriously serious and then some, and then some more as well! I really struggle to some up this half billion $ car collection!

[@BossaNovaLife]

They only display about 350 of the 600 cars at a time. That still meant I had maybe 34 seconds per car to shoot video.

[@leonwhildenjr4483]

🙀Love the Collection Just Fantastically Unbelievable TBH!🤯🙃😎👍🖤⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏🙏🕊🦋🕊✌️☮️🖤🌅🎉🇺🇸
