What happens when vintage American steel meets modern performance engineering? This week on The Collector Car Podcast, I sit down with Daniel van Doveren of Vigilante 4x4 to talk about the booming world of high-end Jeep restomods. Vigilante has quietly become one of the most respected names in the space, transforming classic Willys and early Jeep models into fully reengineered machines with modern drivetrains, refined interiors, and show-stopping craftsmanship. Daniel shares how Vigilante 4x4 approaches restoration versus reinvention, what collectors are really looking for in today's vintage 4x4 market, and why properly executed restomods are earning serious respect alongside traditional concours restorations. We also dive into: The rising demand for classic SUVs and 4x4s What separates a high-quality restomod from a quick build The economics behind six-figure custom Jeeps Why early utility vehicles are becoming lifestyle statements If you've ever wondered whether restomods belong in serious collections — this episode may change your perspective.

405: Ferraris Results In Arizona & Racing with the Stiglette, Joey Andrews
Joey Andrews doesn't just race cars—he does it anonymously, fearlessly, and flat-out fast. Known on track as "The Stiglette," Joey has built a reputation for precision driving, competitive racing, and pushing machinery to its limits without ever making it about ego. In this episode, we go behind the helmet to talk about how the Stiglette persona was born, what it takes to compete at a high level, and why discipline, data, and seat time matter more than hype. From racing strategy to mental toughness—and what it's like to let lap times speak louder than words—this is a rare look at a driver who lets the driving do the talking. Whether you're a hardcore motorsports fan or just love stories about people operating at the top of their game, this one's all gas, no fluff. 🔗 Learn more: https://www.thestiglette.com/ #TheStiglette #JoeyAndrews #ArizonaRacing #WomenInMotorsports #RaceCarDriver #MotorsportsPodcast #TrackFocused #LapTimesOnly 🙏 Thank You to Our Sponsors A big thank you to the partners who help make the podcast possible: Discover Once – Simplifying the way enthusiasts document, manage, and protect their collector cars 👉 https://www.discoveronce.com NCM Insurance – Specialty insurance solutions built specifically for collector vehicles 👉 https://www.ncminsurance.com Please support the brands that support the collector car community.

404: Inside Helderburg Defenders with Founder Paul Potratz
In this episode, I sit down with the founder of Helderburg Defenders to go deep into what truly sets these Defenders apart: uncompromising build quality, craftsmanship, and an almost obsessive attention to detail. We talk about what it takes to elevate a Land Rover Defender beyond restoration and into the realm of a truly bespoke machine—where every component, material choice, and finish is intentional. From chassis and suspension upgrades to interiors that feel more like a tailored suit than a truck, Helderburg Defenders are built to be driven, admired, and endured. This conversation covers: The philosophy behind building Defenders the right way Why quality, durability, and engineering discipline matter more than trends How Helderburg balances authenticity with modern performance and reliability What separates a true high-end Defender build from the rest of the market If you care about craftsmanship, long-term ownership, and vehicles built with integrity rather than shortcuts, this episode is a must-listen.

403: Yellow Ferraris, Rainbow Specs & the White GTO
Record prices. Wild color combinations. And a white GTO that quietly told the real story. In this episode, I break down the Bachman Ferrari sale—why so many cars shattered records, why the boldest (and loudest) specs seemed to win, and what this means for the broader Ferrari market going forward. We talk about how extreme colors and one-off specifications are fueling a new wave of Tailor Made Ferraris, often with investment hopes attached, and why that strategy doesn't always end the way people expect. I also dig into the surprises: softness in cars like the Superamerica, Dinos, and Daytonas, the continued strength of Scuderia, Stradale, and Aperta models, and why the white Ferrari 330 LM / 250 GTO selling for $35 million wasn't as shocking as it looked—unless you weren't paying attention. Finally, I connect the dots to what this could mean for upcoming auctions, including RM Sotheby's Arizona, and why fundamentals still matter—even in a market that sometimes feels like a rainbow-painted Skittles car just crossed the block. 🙏 Thank You to Our Sponsors A big thank you to the partners who help make the podcast possible: Discover Once – Simplifying the way enthusiasts document, manage, and protect their collector cars 👉 https://www.discoveronce.com NCM Insurance – Specialty insurance solutions built specifically for collector vehicles 👉 https://www.ncminsurance.com Please support the brands that support the collector car community. #Ferrari #CollectorCars #FerrariMarket #AuctionResults #BachmanCollection #TailorMadeFerrari #FerrariGTO #RMSothebys #CarCollecting #AutomotivePodcast #ClassicCars #Supercars #FerrariLife Do you need help buying or selling your collector car?

402: Preserving the Craft - Inside Hahn Auto Restoration with Amy Hahn Beck
Great restorations don't happen by accident—they're the result of patience, judgment, and an uncompromising respect for history. This conversation features Amy Hahn Beck, owner of Hahn Auto Restoration, one of the most respected restoration shops in the collector-car world. With decades of experience restoring important automobiles to the highest standards, Amy offers a behind-the-scenes look at what true craftsmanship really means. We discuss what separates a good restoration from a great one, how originality and authenticity factor into long-term value, and why the best restorations are as much about restraint as they are about execution. Amy also shares insights into working with discerning collectors, concours expectations, and how restoration philosophy has evolved alongside the modern collector market. For anyone who cares about preservation, provenance, and doing things the right way—this is an essential listen. #CollectorCars #AutoRestoration #PreservationMatters #ConcoursCulture #AutomotiveHistory #CarCollecting #RestorationCraft #TheCollectorCarPodcast Do you need help buying or selling your collector car?

401: When Provenance Becomes the Product with Nick Hartnack
What happens to a car's story when the engine is off and the garage door is closed? That question leads this conversation with Nick Hartnack, founder of Hartnack & Company, a business dedicated to preserving automotive history through beautifully crafted, bespoke binders for serious car collectors. From concours-level Ferraris to family-owned classics, Nick has carved out a unique niche creating heirloom-quality archives that house ownership records, factory documentation, restoration photos, awards, and provenance—all presented with the same care and intention as the cars themselves. We explore why documentation matters more than ever in today's collector-car market, how presentation can influence credibility and value, and why great cars deserve great storytelling off the road as much as on it. This conversation dives into craftsmanship, legacy, and the small details that separate good collections from truly great ones. If you care about provenance, presentation, and preserving automotive history the right way, this one's for you. #CollectorCars #AutomotiveHistory #CarCollecting #ProvenanceMatters #ConcoursCulture #Automobilia #CarDocumentation #TheCollectorCarPodcast Do you need help buying or selling your collector car?

397: Matthew D'Andria ("Motorator") on Fox Bodies, XJ220s & the Future of Collector Cars
In this episode of The Collector Car Podcast, I'm joined by automotive enthusiast, broadcaster, and all-around car guy Matthew "Motorator" D'Andria for a wide-ranging conversation on some of today's most compelling collector car topics. We kick things off with the Fox-body Mustang—why these once-overlooked 5.0 cars are finally getting respect, which trims and options collectors are chasing, and what separates a smart buy from a future headache. From there, we head to the opposite end of the spectrum with the Jaguar XJ220. We break down its misunderstood origin story, the expectations vs. reality moment at launch, and why today's market is starting to see the XJ220 less as a footnote and more as a true '90s supercar milestone. Along the way, Motorator and I zoom out to talk bigger-picture collector car trends—the pull of analog driving experiences, the influence of online auctions and social media, and how a new generation of enthusiasts is reshaping what's collectible next. Whether you're shopping for your first Fox body or watching the top end of the market, this episode offers insight, perspective, and a few strong opinions along the way.

396: Inside Today's Collector Car Market with Dave Kinney
In this episode of The Collector Car Podcast, I sit down with noted appraiser and Hagerty Price Guide founder Dave Kinney to unpack what's really happening in today's collector car market. We dig into the latest valuation trends across classics, muscle cars, modern exotics, and emerging "next-gen" collectibles—and why some segments are softening while others are catching fire. Dave and I talk about how interest rates, global events, and shifting demographics are shaping prices, plus the surprising rise of younger enthusiasts chasing everything from JDM icons to early Brass Era cars. We also discuss where auction results align (or don't) with private sale realities, how to read past the headlines, and what smart buyers and sellers should be paying attention to right now. Whether you're managing a serious collection, thinking about selling a car, or just trying to understand where the market is headed, this conversation with Dave offers grounded, data-driven insight you can actually use the next time you're browsing listings—or raising your hand at an auction. #CollectorCarMarket #DaveKinney #Hagerty #CarValues #ClassicCars #MarketTrends #CollectorCars #MuscleCars #ModernExotics #JDM #NextGenCollectibles #CarPodcast #AutomotivePodcast #CarInvesting #AuctionMarket #TheCollectorCarPodcast Do you need help buying or selling your collector car?

395: Colorful Stories from the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals
This week, I'm taking you inside the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals — the most vibrant, personality-packed show on the calendar. From rare option combinations to one-owner time capsules and the people who've preserved them, MCACN never disappoints. We'll kick things off with the highest-optioned Hemi 'Cuda ever produced, a car so loaded it borders on mythical. Then we move to a completely unrestored 1967 Corvette, a survivor that still carries every factory quirk, fingerprint, and fastener from day one. And of course, the best part of MCACN is always the owners — the storytellers, the historians, and the characters behind these machines. You'll hear colorful tales of discovery, decades-long stewardship, and the passion that keeps the American performance era alive. If you love high-octane history, quirky provenance, and hearing the stories that never make the display placards, this episode is for you.

After a 19-hour travel day (and spending Halloween 30,000 feet above Manhattan), Greg and Jenni finally touched down in the Lowcountry for one of the most whispered-about events in the collector car world — the Hilton Head Island Concours d'Elegance.

Ever wonder what it's like to buy a dream car new—and still have it decades later? In this episode, Greg Stanley sits down with two remarkable enthusiasts who did just that. First up is Roger Parlett, original owner of a 1968 Ford Mustang Fastback 428 Cobra Jet. As one of the Ford engineers who helped bring the 428 CJ to life, Roger offers a firsthand look at how this legendary muscle car came to be—and what it was like to drive one home from the factory. Then, Greg talks with John Janisch, who purchased his 2004 Lotus Esprit V8 Final Edition brand-new—the very end of Lotus' exotic, analog era. John shares what it's been like to live with and preserve one of the final examples of a truly driver-focused supercar.
