Turtle Garage has arrived at Pebble Beach and Monterey Car Week appears bigger and better than ever. We have a full schedule lined up and are attending (among other events) The Quail, Pebble Beach Classic Car Forums, Concours deLeMons, RetroAuto, the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion, and of course, the Concours on Sunday (the full Monterey Car Week schedule is posted below).
PEBBLE BEACH SEMINARS:
On Friday August 19th at 3pm, From Distraction to Disruptor: How Online Auctions Are Changing the Way Collector Cars Are Bought and Sold will take place at 3:00pm PDT. In addition to myself, fellow distinguished panelists will include Randy Nonnenberg, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Bring a Trailer, one of the most popular auction sites for collectible cars on the internet; Terry Shea, Auction Editor for Hemmings Auto News; Rupert Banner; Group Motoring Director, Bonhams New York; and Mark Hyman, Founder, Hyman Ltd. Classic Cars. John Nikas, founder of the British Sports Car Hall of Fame, championship-winning vintage race car driver and the Executive Director of the Madison Avenue Sports Car Driving and Chowder Society, will moderate the discussion. We are looking forward to what should be a lively discussion about the important (and growing) role online auctions are playing within the collector car industry. A press release about the panel can be accessed here.
CARS YEAH: THE NEW PODCAST WITH TURTLE GARAGE
You can also catch Turtle Garage’s special Pebble Beach podcast interview with Mark Greene at Cars Yeah. Mark has now interviewed over 2,000 collector car enthusiasts and experts. His burgeoning site is an excellent resource and a great way to get to know some of the key players of the industry. You can access the podcast by clicking here.
AUCTIONS: OUR PICKS FOR MONTEREY 2022
Finally, we will be carefully watching the auction outcomes of three very special Mercedes-Benz models. For 2022, RM Sotheby’s is offering up a stunning alloy-bodied Mercedes Gullwing. This is no ordinary Gullwing as only 29 aluminum versions were ever produced (click here to view this item). RM is also selling a spectacular 1937 Mercedes-Benz 540 K Special Roadster by Sindelfingen (click here for more info). Finally, over at Gooding & Co. a rare and unique 2006 CLK DTM AMG Cabriolet will cross the block (click here for more details). These are three unique and rare Mercedes-Benz offerings from different periods that should really ring the bell.
I’m here in Monterey with my Chief of Staff Phoebe Rubenstein from Hollow Brook Wealth Management —if you are on the peninsula for Monterey Car Week, please ping us and say hello!
