The way he has his Motorcycles displayed on the wall is so freakin cool. His collection is my dream collection. Everything in that collection is so clean you can eat off every motor. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
The only car more beautiful than my black on black 1957 Chevy Belair was a 1957 Pontiac convertible laying two black streaks down the street in 1958. It was a fantastic time to be a teenager!
Wow Kip, all your cars are such beautiful examples, and bring back such happy memories! My grandparents had Beetles (my mum tells me whenever I saw one I'd tell out 'Granny Car!', though I don't remember that .. I was about two!) You also know SO much about each and every one of them, including all of their individual histories! Loved this tour so much! When I visit California next I plan to go to some car shows, especially everything that goes on at Monterey Car Week, where with any luck I'll get to see one or more of your cars up close! Thanks so much for sharing, and thanks also, as always, to everyone at the Petersen Museum! Take care, from Stevie in Australia! 😄 .. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 ...
16:36 in I see a “Pontiac authorized service” neon sign. On that sign is the Chief, branded on the Pontiac Fire Chief. I had access to a 1956 fire chief, I think the outside was red and the inside was red and white… This is going back to 1997 so I have a vague memory, but brought that up because I was curious if you were ever thinking of adding a Pontiac Fire Chief to your collection? The other Pontiac you showed had similar characteristics, only you had those glass like fender accents above the headlights where as the Pontiac Chief has “The Chief“ on the hood. I never even heard the car before somebody paid to store that vehicle in my families RV garage in Northridge California, so again, just looking at the history and of what you have and what I’ve seen that compares and how you said they were limited to colors and that was pretty much the color combination that this was. Though this wasn’t nearly as restored as yours, even the back windows needed assistance while closing. Anyways, would love to see a fire chief in your collection. Thoughts?
fantastic collection. one of the finest i have ever seen. mind blowing. i bet the whole building, neon, piano, engines, and cars worth 50 million dollars!
Wow. I watched both parts. What an amazing collection. Even the cars i'm not "into" are stunning. I have never seen a DeTomaso Vallelunga, Kip gives a great explanation of these cars. That Sunliner would be a 401 horsepower.... beautiful. The FI 57 Pontiac is amazing, the Caddys are too... that Porsche tractor... the gas pumps, the piano, the neon...even the floor! sheesh.
James Terrill thanks, for mentioning.. my Purdue University car was a 1961 GALAXIE Ford **red/convertible white top/352 / 4BBL/ AUTO( unfortunately) in 1965-67: worn out, bad,et rusted & poor Body & bondo work: though I enjoyed it, had to,get a 66 GALAXIE XL 4 SPD/352/4 BBL: I improved it considerably( METALLIC BRAKES/tires/COOLANT RECOVERY ETC), though falling apart by 160000 ? Did your 61 GALAXIE HOLD UP WELL?
The Continental series from ‘61-‘64 remained relatively unchanged, except in ‘62 when the front grille was redesigned. The ‘65 was the Entourage car, and JFK rode in a ‘62 with the front grille swopped out with one from the ‘63. My personal favourite is the ‘62, not entirely because of its ties to Camelot, but because it became the true baseline for elegance. It’s not only one of the technologically advanced vehicles of its time, its also a work of art.
When a comment came in about the 61 Continental being the most expensive car....the Rolls Royce was exactly the same price amazingly...so I heard...don't quote me :)
Man! Now I know how a VW Beetle from 1952 really looked like in that time. This is not restoration, this is how they build it in 1952! Truly incredible.
😂 .. I don't think they're the kind of Neons they were talking about, BUT it could just be Kip didn't get to them, and perhaps they're in another garage! 😃
You could share a video of yours with us, especially this Sunday at the Petersen's Cars & Coffee! Interestingly People's Choice last time was a beautiful green Beretta .. just gorgeous !!! 😃
It's not "britz"... it's Biarritz... "bya-ritz" that's a town in south west france.... Cadillac is a town in south west france. It should be pronounced "cadiyac" by the way, but at this point the brand name has its own identity with the american "cadilac" pronounciation as if it was a single L
Perhaps, but Kip sure does love them, has restored them to perfection, and is sharing them with us. Please feel free to post a link to the ones in your own collection. 😀
Stevie's In Da House! Sorry but what does your answer has to do with my statement? I'm just explaining how that trim is supposed to be called because he skipped letters. His cars are in absolute concourse mint condition it's absolutely incredible to see those interiors and engine bays. You might want to chill a bit, not too sure how you saw that as a personal attack to the man, the quality of his restaurations, his collection or anything. Also.. why are you hiding behind his back? If you want an Epenis contest on what's in the garage... you're the one calling out and that should tell me what's so great about what you own instead of pretending that this collection is a bit yours too because you seem to know the guy. You're a brainless fanboy. Try learning nuances between black and white.
The neon reflections on these classics are mesmerizing and the garage as a whole is a work of art, unto itself.
I watched part 1 and could not wait for part 2. I honestly could spend all day looking at these beauties. I'd hate to pull Kip's name in Secret Santa.
The way he has his Motorcycles displayed on the wall is so freakin cool. His collection is my dream collection. Everything in that collection is so clean you can eat off every motor. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
That white Pontiac Conv is an amazing example of Americana! Just superb! Thanks for sharing your amazing cars with us Skip!
I just left a big comment on that actually.
I've had the joy of seeing this collection. It is very special.
The only car more beautiful than my black on black 1957 Chevy Belair was a 1957 Pontiac convertible laying two black streaks down the street in 1958. It was a fantastic time to be a teenager!
Love the old New York provenance!
Stunning Lincoln and Cadillac!
He did it again! I love this collection! Thank you for sharing
Really great tour. My favorite was that blue Porsche.

Correction: 'yell out' (pretty sure that's my phone correcting me!) 😃
P. S. And I get to play too, quite literally, an 1890 Steinway! Amazing! 😃

Love the neon reflections. Everything is so slick and beautiful. You take great care of your collection. Thank you for sharing more.
fantastic collection. one of the finest i have ever seen. mind blowing. i bet the whole building, neon, piano, engines, and cars worth 50 million dollars!
Kip has kept everything in such great condition!
Awesome collection, I love your Steinway piano!

That 1957 Pontiac is absolutely beautiful! It reminds me of the Pontiac that was driven in I Love Lucy. lol
Such a cool collection. Hope there's a Part 3
Me too! In the meantime if you Google Kip Cyprus you'll find more on Kip's collection. Cheers! 😃
Pretty sure I wouldn't lose interest by part 17.
Thank you so very much.
Thank you!
More Please
Did your '61 Continental go to the dealer and have the recall work done for the under carriage support?
Definitely a lottery or jackpot winner
The 1961 Ford conv. next to the caddy - My first new car was a 61 Ford Galaxy with a 390 std. w/od. Would out run anything but a gas station....

Good morning everyone, including everybody at the Petersen, and welcome Kip! So looking forward! WHOO-HOO! 🎈🎪🐶🎶🎉🏁🚗🚀🍕🍔🍟🍹🍧🍩🍰🍉🍍☕💃🎊☀👍👊 ..👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 ...

The "bullets" are called: Dagmars and Why, with these millions of dollars of cars - you don'y have a light to shine on the VW motor ...
I don't even own one car and this guy has 50+. To each their own, I guess. lol
Man! Now I know how a VW Beetle from 1952 really looked like in that time. This is not restoration, this is how they build it in 1952! Truly incredible.
Yea. 1973 cars were. Cheep. Gas guzzlers. We took it 4 granted ...Great. collection drivers. ..1500 4 a 64 impala back then. Running looking good
Super value now!
Had a 71 barracuda only 500 in three 80s . Cheep cost at time ...who knew not me
Thank 4 sharing. Wowee
sharpness setting way too high, eating up the resolution. could be noisereduction or contrast
the muting of the guy asking questions to put it on screen as text is annoying
Right. Guess he didn’t want his voice on video 😭
hi
G'day Owen! 😃
I think the French were first with their traction avant in the 1930's
I was promised Neons but not one single Dodge/Plymouth Neon in sight. So sad...
😂 .. I don't think they're the kind of Neons they were talking about, BUT it could just be Kip didn't get to them, and perhaps they're in another garage! 😃
You could share a video of yours with us, especially this Sunday at the Petersen's Cars & Coffee! Interestingly People's Choice last time was a beautiful green Beretta .. just gorgeous !!! 😃
He has a dodge neon sign
Don’t let AOC see your collection. She’ll die on the spot 🤣
I saw a 1954 Chevrolet behind that car you speak of. You should practice your speeches so that they are not inconsistent, my thoughts.
It's not a neon, it is an SRT-4
It's not "britz"... it's Biarritz... "bya-ritz" that's a town in south west france.... Cadillac is a town in south west france. It should be pronounced "cadiyac" by the way, but at this point the brand name has its own identity with the american "cadilac" pronounciation as if it was a single L

He must be born into a wealthy family; he's too young to own so many cars and garages
I really want to dislike this guy due to my envoy and jealousy however he appears to be a gentleman and a first rate person ..
Great cars, but this guy is painful to listen to.
