Hats off to Mr. Bruce Meyer, not only for being so patient as he is repeatedly talked-over and interrupted, but also for this glorious collection of iconic machines
Virtually everything Adam said about the P-38 was wrong. A 20 mm cannon is not a tank-buster and the 200 gallon belly tanks were for the Pacific theater.
Great show Adam, just some guys talking about some great machines! Bruce is a great caretaker of these beauties. See you at the Fontana Vintage race soon enough, I'll be there in the little red Elva sports racer with the wheel up high in the twistys...
Adam is a very cool guy with a passion no one can argue but please, let the man who KNOWS speak - these are super special and Mr MEyer considers himself a "custodian" of certain cars. We need more wealthy people to preserve the art made in the
I cannot wait for the day I am blessed with the sound and speed of th' wood. As a Kiwi born guy with a longing for a chance to see real machines, passion and speed Bentley Rolls Royce Merlin 12's etc the list goes forever. I would take a 993 GT2 in the options you used to get in 1993
Meyer has great taste. These cars are cool and have amazing provenance. Too bad they kept interrupting him, and didn't think to open the hoods to show the engines. He drives the cars too.
As the the last poster said, Bruce Meyer is a real gentleman. Adam Carolla is a real Dick. Not the sort of person you really want as a friend. I hope he never gets to Goodwood his voice would drive us up the wall.
To think in the early '70s I owned a 190 SL in Germany that I had bought from a returning G. I. for next to nothing. I never could get it running right and the thing was full of Hondo from a cheap repair so I finally sent it to a new home. I certainly kick myself today for doing that.
198mph in that SoCal car is insane. I will say though Mercedes did 268mph in 1938, a world record won by driver Rudolf Caracciola. So 198 had been broken.
The proper track racing is done at the Goodwood Revival festival for the historic race cars,the hill climb is the Festival of speed and is open to all comers including bikes I’ve gone to it since it came back and is the Mecca for all petrol heads or whatever it is called in the US.Just a little interjection there cheers ta ra Guys.
hearing more tidbits of CarrollShelby in the start of his Career of ProductionCars i know he was one hell of a hard working man but in order to get the things done in those time frames he really needed to be one hell of a BallBuster to Coordinate all the players ,Parts , and ideas to get things done you also need to be pretty smooth to motivate all those things and people without all of them getting so Aggravated and telling you to go,Pound Sand more importantly when the Money hasn’t began Flowing abundantly yet !

I love Adam, and Bruce Meyer seems like a great guy. Everyone always seems to dismiss Matt as a peon. Unfortunately, his self-worth doesn't seem to change people's idea of him...
13:08 Isn't really a production car other than in appearance. Don't be fooled those things were purpose built race cars that shared very little if anything with a production 911. It's pretty much a full blown tubular space frame race car clothed to look like a 911... They weren't just hoped up cup cars...they were 800+ fire breathing monsters!
wrong. they are factory 911/ 930 street tub chassis. The only factory 935 space frame was the 935-78 mobydick and did not win in 78', Kremer K4 was also space frame (never raced Lemans) , so was the Joest Moby 935 (finished 3rd in 1982). The rest are factory tub chassis with alum rollcage as this Kremer K3 is.
I met Bruce at the Mecedes-Benz of Beverly Hills Charity Car Show about ten years back. He has got to be one of the nicest guys in the car hobby. Be forewarned though, if you ever try to talk to him at an event, you might get about a minute before someone rushes up and interrupts what you were saying to the man. I get how he is a popular guy at such shows, but it is pretty rude of folks to butt in when you only wanted a minute or two to ask a few questions.
Regarding the Porsche 935 - not that any of our American friends get wrong ideas: The KKK symbol stands for 'Kühnle, Kopp & Kausch', a turbocharger manufacturer in this time.
Yes, most of us know that although the thoughts of someone over here misinterpreting that is pretty comical, they're commonly referred to over here as the "Porsche K3" instead of "Porsche KKK" for that reason. Here's one even better then that, the first Buell motorcycles that had inverted front forks had forks that were made in Germany by White Power, on the side of the forks they were marked "White Power, Germany", shortly after they started assembling the bikes with those forks at Buell's production facility a phone call was made to White Power that went something like this, "Uh, guys...", next thing you know the forks were marked "WP, Germany".
Show the engines???? how about SHOW THE CARS!!!!! only got a still shot of the vette, what about interior, gages, tires, suspension, body/chrome detail work etc....Wouldve been much more interesting to see the whole car, inside and out, as well as under the hood.
HOLY CRAP....the first car..serial #1 1962 Cobra w/ the Shelby signature on the glovebox..wow..wonder what that would fetch at a Pebble Beach auction...fat$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$...

David Walker Jay Leno wannabe? You mean Adam Carolla? It’s his fucking show. If you don’t like it don’t watch. He’s made millions and millions with his voice. If you don’t like it don’t watch it.
Shame on these three. Adam for his cavalier racist comment, and Matt & Bruce for tacitly approving (with laughter). CarCast, please admonish these boys and cut that part of the video. -Doug Pratt, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
Hats off to Mr. Bruce Meyer, not only for being so patient as he is repeatedly talked-over and interrupted, but also for this glorious collection of iconic machines
Yea, Jay Leno is even worse.

Tony Falcone “...nicely done, nicely done. My McLaren F1...”
had adam been drinking ??
U all talk to much no one cares wut u thank not even ur mom
The history behind these race cars is amazing.
Hats off, Sir, Mr. Meyers!
Bruce Meyer is a very impressive gentleman with great taste in cars 👍
sure was such a pleasure to be shown around such iconic weaponry , thanks
Incredible. One of the most significant collections I have ever heard of. Such significant cars, all with a fantastic story.
Great history. Amazing collection.
His collection is amazing!
Great show Adam, just some guys talking about some great machines! Bruce is a great caretaker of these beauties. See you at the Fontana Vintage race soon enough, I'll be there in the little red Elva sports racer with the wheel up high in the twistys...
Bruce is a really cool guy. i've seen him quite often.
Beautiful historic collection
Adam is a very cool guy with a passion no one can argue but please, let the man who KNOWS speak - these are super special and Mr MEyer considers himself a "custodian" of certain cars. We need more wealthy people to preserve the art made in the
Amen to that!!
thanks so much for this Adam!
Thanks for putting that together, very cool.
Great episode! Must do more!
such a class act… Bruce seems like a pretty cool guy and adam and his side kick do a great job interviewing,,,
Love hearing Bruce talk cars.
No mention of my favorite car owned by Bruce, the Doane Spencer 32 Ford roadster, one of the most significant hot rods of all time?
Bruce seems like an exceptionally cool guy.
This is fantastic
More of this please
What an important collection and a cool fellow.
we want more
Love your videos
my god, it's like the finest art in the world in one place!
Wow what cars. And Goodwood is an amazing show. Also Brighton speed trials. We are lucking in the UK.
I cannot wait for the day I am blessed with the sound and speed of th' wood. As a Kiwi born guy with a longing for a chance to see real machines, passion and speed Bentley Rolls Royce Merlin 12's etc the list goes forever. I would take a 993 GT2 in the options you used to get in 1993
that is one fortunate guy with great taste ! nice video guys!!!
the stories behind the cars are just as interesting as the cars themselves...i love this shit
Amazing.
The Hammer is the coolest cat on the planet..!! Love you Ace Man.!
Great collection. Don't know if its open to public but I would love to see it
Bruce knows his shit.
love it
Meyer has great taste. These cars are cool and have amazing provenance. Too bad they kept interrupting him, and didn't think to open the hoods to show the engines. He drives the cars too.

Wowzer. Amazing cars. Now the ten hour Leno Garage show...
That 935 gave me a semi..what a machine!
Why am I just now finding out about this youtube channel!?
hes talking about the carbs and im yelling at the screen "OPEN THE HOOD OPEN THE HOOD!!!!" breaking my heart here
Great vid. Why is the guy in the green shirt there. Adams fluffer?
Exactly! hahah he starts touching them, brazenly so.
Matt D'Andria, cohost of Carcast
Probably to get adam to stop cutting off Bruce....
To think in the early '70s I owned a 190 SL in Germany that I had bought from a returning G. I. for next to nothing. I never could get it running right and the thing was full of Hondo from a cheap repair so I finally sent it to a new home. I certainly kick myself today for doing that.
Dear Adam, its Bruce FREAKING Meyer..... Let him talk.
LoOoOoL
198mph in that SoCal car is insane. I will say though Mercedes did 268mph in 1938, a world record won by driver Rudolf Caracciola. So 198 had been broken.
Adam...Paul newman had a vw bug rag top with a buick v6 for power, back in the early 70s...it was a hotrod magazine cover car...YOU MUST FIND IT....
Adam i must commen you guys. This is a damn great episode. You need 2 do tim allens random collection. I want 2 see his ss impala
Daym he has good taste in cars!!!!!!
The black Speedster at the start, did that happen to fall off a trailer recently? I have seen some photos on facebook of a nasty wreck.

Meyer, the most important car you have there is the 79' LeMans 935 :D
You can make a movie about the Whittington Brothers and you won't believe what they have done since the drug smuggling days.
Hard to believe the drop tank car could get up to 200 mph, with the guys huge balls dragging! LOL
Mr. Carolla should let the guys that know do all the talking. The P-38 wasn´t the plane that Leonardo Di Caprio crashed in the movie!
the mclaren f1 gtr was the last production car to win le man @13:00

Is the twin engined Norton on the wall the "Hog Slayer"?
Thats what i was wondering!
Yes, and the black Mercedes 300 is known as the "spectator slayer".
Nice episode, but please open the hoods next time! Don´t just talk about the engines when you can show them!
Toyota carolla ?
I love Adam, and Bruce Meyer seems like a great guy.

Love this vid.
Half way into it and wish AC would just be humble for a sec and stop interrupting.
This is not YOUR time sorry to say.
Herby Hancock has number 4....still with 260 in it. Bought it in new York
Bruce:
Does your race car models and history,bring more value to your collections value?
Fantastic collection! But if Santa will just bring me an early E-Type Jag, I promise that I won't ask him for anything else.
If Santa would just bring me a couple of the SU carbs off of one I'd be happy.
in 1995 a Mclaren F1 won lemans overall with a street car converted to race for customers who insisted. the F1 was not intended to race.
holy shit, that guy is 71? I can only hope...
Just incase you did not get it the first time he said it "this isn the first one " 8 times!!! I think we get it.
thats because the small block cobra actually looks better - just like early 6 cylinder e type LOOKS better the later V12

Show the engines please...
Disappointing that they dont show any of the engines.
Oh, so there´s finally a Heaven...
Clark Gables Benz....wow. Big benz with the big motor and only 48 total.
90210????
Dammit Adam talks too much. This is bruce’s collection NOT Adams!!
It dose say car collection with adum Corolla
Aloominum?
sounds close enough 2 me.
Good video - I just wish they'd open the hoods so we don't have to imagine what they're talking about.
Regarding the Porsche 935 - not that any of our American friends get wrong ideas: The KKK symbol stands for 'Kühnle, Kopp & Kausch', a turbocharger manufacturer in this time.

Nice video!
But can you please stop uploading interlaced video's?
Show the engines???? how about SHOW THE CARS!!!!! only got a still shot of the vette, what about interior, gages, tires, suspension, body/chrome detail work etc....Wouldve been much more interesting to see the whole car, inside and out, as well as under the hood.
198 not 200
HOLY CRAP....the first car..serial #1 1962 Cobra w/ the Shelby signature on the glovebox..wow..wonder what that would fetch at a Pebble Beach auction...fat$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$...
It takes days for Adam Carolla to get to the point
Who are these people that believe they can see the curvature of the Earth when it’s falling away from them?
Devin ss would have kicked the early COBRAs ass
adam is so annoying, he doesnt let bruce talk at all and always interrupts him
I agree. I hate Adam. Where did this cockroach come from? Total POS loser boy.
@@limer4330
He's got his own show and a nice collection himself, so what would that make you, sub-loser?
I wanted to see under the hoods.
And not one bonnet was opened! UGH!
They forgot about the McLaren F1 win at Le Mans in '95. 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 13th.

great motors but what a dull sole less garage.
If Beverly Hills burns to the ground, this collection will only be a memory
Obviously, what exactly is your point?
If Beverly Hills burns to the ground, nothing of value would be lost, except for these cars.
Bruce Meyer seems like a really nice guy, but that Jay Leno wannabe spoiled it for me. He may enjoy the sound of his own voice but I didn’t.
David Walker Jay Leno wannabe? You mean Adam Carolla? It’s his fucking show. If you don’t like it don’t watch. He’s made millions and millions with his voice. If you don’t like it don’t watch it.
Meh,, he doesn't even have a Datsun z ,,, lol 😂😆
Bruce Meyer is a checkbook collector. He hasn't build anything himself.
God, does Adam ever shut up?
Great cars but painful to listen to. Adam and his sidekicks are insufferable.
Shame on these three. Adam for his cavalier racist comment, and Matt & Bruce for tacitly approving (with laughter). CarCast, please admonish these boys and cut that part of the video. -Doug Pratt, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
