Bruce is a wonderful guy. I saw him pretty often when I worked at Shelby, and he is just a knowledgeable, funny, friendly person.

Great soul

I was lucky enough to meet Bruce randomly at the Porsche experience center in Los Angles. He couldn’t have been nicer. A great ambassador to the car culture. Great video

This guy seems amazing. So generous and down to earth. Love it.

He's the youngest 80 year old I've seen

I burst out loud when he said that! “He’s 81?!” His mind is still sharp as well.

Hope I'm that sharp when I'm 80.

I could listen to Bruce talk all day! My wife and I had the pleasure of seeing a lot of these cars at the Petersen when we were in LA in 2019. Amazing how much knowledge and history he knows off the top of his head. Great video Jason!

Every-time I watch one of these, I realize the most important thing is to simply let "the caretaker" talk, and the wonderful stories pour fourth to our ears. Great stuff.

Such a gentleman, he even mentions the cameraman. Not just once, but both at the beginning and end of the video.

By far, Bruce is the nicest auto enthusiast I have ever met. At 80+ years old, he recalls things (names, dates, specs, lineage, etc.) that amazes me and should amaze any other automotive enthusiast. At 60+, I don't know what I had for lunch two days ago. I've seen him at the Petersen more times than I can count and have a video of him driving the '57 Tessa Rosa home after a Sunday "cars and coffee". The man loves to see these treasures driven, and driven properly. He is a true gift to the automotive community. Great interview, thanks for posting.

Bruce is a remarkable guy!

As a SoCal guy I always think of Bruce Meyers - of Meyers Manx fame. He just passed last year at 94. Mr Meyer used to race dirt bikes in the day iirc, and looks amazing at 81. Need to visit his collection - and also Canepa’s up in NorCal.

Love Bruce Meyer and his passion for cars. What a collection 👌. Great video, many thanks 🙏

What a nice guy Bruce is. Hopefully all these private collections remain intact for future generations.

Never mind Bruce's car and bike collection, I aspire to be as fit, in as good Shape and health,and a razor sharp memory in my 81st year👍

A great man indeed.

Thank you for just letting Bruce share his passion

No one is nicer and more knowledgeable than Bruce Meyer. No one ☝️.

What a wonderful collection. Bruce has instant recall on each car's history

What an awesome person and life is what you make it. Thank you Bruce! You are an inspiration for many.

It is always an immense pleasure to see Bruce's Collection... even if it is a video. The quality of this diverse collection seems to focus on historical significance and pure beauty. So while Mr. Meyer may reference his missed opportunity for the GTO v 4 Cam trade, the beauty is all there anyway (Ahem, and the 275 GTB/4 has a more advanced engine anyway!). Since beauty and historical/technical significance are mainstays, might a Miura be a missing element here Mr. Meyer? ;-)

Great to see his collection. I have met Bruce several times and got to talk with him for an hour or more in the stands at Bakersfield. I'd say all my lifetime collection of cars and parts and memorabilia is probably worth less than Bruce's cheapest car but we sat there and talked as regular car guys and he impressed me as a down to earth genuine car guy.

This was an amazing tour! Well done!!

What a fantastic presentation. Subscribed. You two are absolute magic together. I could listen to this for a long time and still be smiling. As awesome as this collection is I enjoyed you both as much. Thank you gentlemen.

What a guy. Generous!

WOW! Thanks for sharing🎉

Insane collection, thank you so much for the video!

Bruce Meyer is a true gentleman!

Magic. Just magic. Thank you 🙏🏻

what a super nice guy he is , very generous with his time showing his collection , respect Bruce

It's Official... Bruce Meyer has the most toys!! Didn't those Bizzarrini's have a 327 Chevy engine in them? I'm surprised It wasn't mentioned. What a collection...

I don’t know anything about these two guys but the interviewer sounds like a really knowledgeable and respectful guy and the owner of these cars seems to be the salt of the earth - no idea how he earned his fortune but I’d willingly work for a person of what seems to be such excellent character and temperament

wow, Bruce is such a legend! I'm very impressed by him!

Wow - spectacular. Well done.

Great tour, Jason! Keep it up 💪

Mr Meyer has always come across as such a gentleman and true automotive enthusiasts. Saying this is a $50M collection HAS to be hitting it VERY low.

I hope Bruce is friends with Jay Leno.. The two of them together on a show would be so fascinating .

Bruce Meyer never met him before but he is ..... a really nice fella. Class.

Bruce is one of the ‘coolest’ car guys in the USA, and being a ‘Yooper’ myself, it was nice to hear him say that he recently drove that old big black classic car in a rally up here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan (ie; ‘Yooper’) ! 👍

Thank you for this 😎

Very cool. What a fantastic collection.

Wow what an amazing collection!

Bruce is the real deal. What a guy!

I sent Bruce a letter he came up with it two months later what a gentleman to call me and apologized for everything great man.

Well that was my first video of Cars and Culture and i’ve never clicked subscribe so fast! Delightful banter, chock full of petrolhead factoids, thanks for sharing

Awesome collection nicely done.

My new favorite channel! 👍

What a nice guy. Beautiful car collection. I still can’t get over the fact that he is 80? That man found the fountain of youth

I would go crazy trying to keep the dust off of all of those incredible cars.

Nicely done.

I met Bruce at the Grand national roadster show a few years back. One hell of a nice guy. He was so humble when I asked him if he was the same Bruce Meyer that designed the Myers Manx. I knew it was not him but it was funny. He's a character.

Super cool dude , bad ass cars .

@@CarsAndCulture yes sir, I was just pointing out they are yellow ctr's. The yellowbird is a specific vehicle. It was 211mph fastest car, nurburgring video car and is still with the family. The other cars technically are the yellowbird. They ctr's. I wasn't trying to be a jerk I just people often confuse it be well amigo

What a great guy. 👍

Indeed a top Bloke is Bruce I met him a bunch of times when I owned LimeWorks Speedshop in California , he is a Hot Rodder first & the consummate classic car enthusiast . Thanks for a great interview/tour .

Pity we didn't get to the bikes as well. I noticed a Manx Norton & possibly a 7R AJS in the background. Great video, no doubt it could've continued indefinitely.

The Man🙌🏻🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💯🙏🏻👌🏻

Wow he looks good for 81

wow that was way too short

Guys like Bruce are my Superstars !!!!!!! From an unapologetic car enthusiast !!!!. If you don't like cars I can't talk to you.

I went to USAF Officer Training School in 1967 in San Antonio. We were all recent college grads and had new cars. Corvettes, GTO's, etc. They made us park our cars in a high fenced area and we could visit them on Saturday to start them, but not drive them for 6 weeks. One of our classmates had a gullwing Porsche. His grandmother had given it to him for his college graduation present. I had never seen one before and only a couple since. Wonder where it is today.

81? He looks like he is 68. Great and tasteful collection building. I especially like the library / documentation area. This is how such cars and all literature should be displayed.

That guy is like an encyclopedia of car knowledge….Wow!!

Wow, now that’s a lovely man and a wonderful car collection 👌👍

WOW , Nice guy Bruce good on you . a proper car guy .

Definitely a 50 mill collection. Very impressive.

I was thinking he looks pretty good for 60.... he's 80? Great guy and I enjoy that you didn't ask too many question just kept low key and let Bruce roll out the stories. Thanks for this you are a good interviewer.

What a nice guy.

What a class act

Way to go

Love does corvettes and cobra 👍

very gracious man.

Bruce is 81 this year?!? I thought like way less

what a cool guy ; )

I'm sorry did he just say hes 80 going on 81 wow. He looks and sounds like he's in his 50s. He has amazing collection. Thanks for sharing.

What a stunning collection. I absolutely love the Dusenburg and Bugatti.... is your collection open to the public?

I like the used car sign the back

Now, that's a garage!

That RUF!

Holy crap! I can't believe this man is 80 years old. I would have guessed 68

The future called and said "Thanks Bruce"

Like both Benz🤩

I use to own the trailer that Tommy Greer and Keith Black use to haul that dragster on.

💯

I'd like to see Bruce and Jay playing Top Trumps with their garages...

Imagine the cost of restoring these cars like the yellow RUF

I'm surprised this guy posses some cars that you would think the Manufacturers (Porsche & Ferrari as examples) would have kept or aquired? What a small representation of this man's incredible collection.

We owned a Gull Wing Riley..... yes, Gull Wing Riley. The experts will tell you that no such car existed but it did. Story is that after WW2 a body builder/designer from Ferrari decided to start a new life in Adelaide, South Australia. Johnny Pagnusat was the gentlemans name. Beautiful car and one of one, Johhny built it to show his talents. Still have a photo of it.

Key phrase, don't get divorced to have a great car collection like that!

Great video. The Ferrari 61 is worth $15 million alone so his collection is probably worth over $100 million.
