In episode 99 of the BaT Podcast, Randy visits the legendary Bruce Meyer's storied car collection in Los Angeles. They cover his early discovery of fellow enthusiasts at BaT; car collecting in the DNA; being born on the perfect day in history; his start as a corner paper boy; flipping and racing motorcycles while in college at Berkeley; buying his first Porsche via European Delivery in 1961; his "first, fastest, or prettiest" collection mentality; a predilection for race cars built by hot rodders; his lifetime of Cobra ownership, leading to acquisition of the very first production example; memories from 1960s Lake Tahoe, including the 327-powered Gullwing he picked up from the back of a wooden boat shop; watching out for "air cars"; his deep involvement as founding chairman of the Petersen Automotive Museum; and his love of the LA lowrider community.

In episode 98 of the BaT Podcast, Alex heads to the downtown LA Arts District to talk Porsches and eclectic tastes with none other than Magnus Walker, who just happens to be well known in both arenas. The conversation includes appreciation for Alex's (soon to be for sale) NSX; the amazing live/work/play studio that Walker's media operations and collection call home; his early exposure to the car scene in and around Sheffield, land of fine stainless steel; a $200 1977 Corolla coupe as his first car in LA, and his modern quest to find another; acquiring his first-ever Porsche at the Pomona Swap Meet in 1992, famously kicking off a spree that has continued for 32 years and counting; building a collection when Porsches were affordable used cars for enthusiasts; the differences, or absence thereof, between a 901 and an early 911; the evolution of the 930 Turbo; the relative merits of every RS; non-Porsche marques that scratch an itch, including some surprising picks and a little dabbling in Lotus-land; his recently released project as a design consultant for Tom Walkinshaw Racing with Khyzyl Saleem; his respect for Jay Leno as a car enthusiast; and the best places to soak up inspiration.

In episode 97 of the BaT Podcast, Alex, Zac, and Randy talk about the car- and BaT-related things that make them happy. Alternating between tongue-in-cheek and heartfelt, the wide-ranging discussion covers the merits of the first-gen Panamera; the curious state of the modern movie industry; a healthy dose of Batman (note the solo cap); discovering the I-5 rally stage out of Grapevine, California; defending the tall gearing of the five-speed NSX; a heretofore unknown appreciation of the donk (that's with a "k," folks, don't get too excited); turbo cars masquerading as N/A cars; revisiting prewar daily drivers; the various ways in which a vintage BMW might set itself alight; the joy of knowing a reliable mechanic for one's unreliable car; track time in a haggard Ferrari; a little back-patting; the struggles of Chrysler, timeline debatable; the upcoming Jaguar brand redesign; T-top desires; a hard, if unscientific, look at modern car enthusiasm; an appeal for updates on what people are doing with their BaT purchases; some thanks thrown to your humble podcast servant; a controversial wheel choice; and some Thanksgiving motherly love.

In episode 96 of the BaT Podcast, Alex is joined once again by Beck Diefenbach, who has Thoughts on the One-Year Garage game. They recount favorite classic Top Gear episodes, talk about the "fall rush" in White Glove, and note the much-improved production times for Classic and Plus listings. Alex prepares to try out a BaT Local Partner for himself. The pair compose a paean to one of our very best people, go over notable White Glove auctions of recent months and the near future, and engage in obligatory 356 and Furhmann dives. Finally, they move on to their own takes on recent Questions of the Week, which in turn elicit several embarrassing admissions from them both: favorite sports sedans, cars with the coolest scoops, favorite promotional vehicles, and pre-war daily drivers.

In episode 95 of the BaT Podcast, Alex and Zac welcome podcast newcomer and BaT stalwart, the one and only Patrick Trautfield, to join them for the latest round of The One-Year Garage. This time, it's 1984—a more difficult field on which to play than any of the trio imagined, but fertile ground nonetheless. Topics include a heretofore unknown first BaT Podcast attempt in 2017; the first-gen Toyota Camry Solara, that relatively agreeable precursor to one of the worst-looking cars ever made; much-delayed impressions from Luft 10; the shocking and completely unexpected realities of Ferrari ownership; overly generous definitions of "family hauler"; #vanagonlife;  a Toyota trifecta; and a rowdy theme for the wild cards of the era.

In episode 94 of the BaT Podcast, Alex, Randy and Zac shoot the breeze (but not the fish) about: Corona vs Cordoba, a rosier view of the current state of the market, Carrera RS colors, the dread question: "Is it real?", anti-stripe contrarianism, and searching by Lot Number, capping things off with a rambling exploration through our leaders' highly eclectic watchlists. They move on to display their collective, uncanny ability for remembering specific details from a huge list of movie cars (both stars and extras), dissect "ground effects," point out flawed car casting, and intentionally leave Eleanor out in the cold.

For episode 93 of the BaT Podcast, Alex and Howard sit down with Andrew Glaser, founder and CEO of Vantage Auto, who has currently listed just under 1,500 cars on BaT and is still going strong. Andrew calls in from the rear end of a Maybach to discuss the recent BaT Alumni Gathering in New York; the Smart Crossblade as art; broken family promises; wholesaling 200 cars a week; a quick and necessary pivot as the pandemic set in; the beauty in low-mile examples of otherwise pedestrian cars; barns full of undriven Dodges in the middle of nowhere; the downside of over-reconditioning; the somewhat unusual position of being a car enthusiast in car sales; the Element and CR-V trends; "bids per mile";  a frank look at the current state of the market for volume dealers, and sage advice for others in the same position; the power of the comments section; well over the unicorn limit; the triumph and pain of selling 11 special cars at once; and an upcoming move into consignment.

This week, we present in full a recording of the live panel discussion from the largest BaT Alumni Gathering yet, which was moderated by our own Alex Porter this past Saturday at Coker Farm in beautiful Bedford, New York. Special thanks to our guests Anthony Serra of 1600veloce, Dean Laumbach, and last but certainly not least, Philip Richter, who so graciously lent the use of his gorgeous property on one of the nicest fall days we've ever seen. We'll be back to regular programming next week!

In episode 91 of the BaT Podcast, Alex, Randy, and Zac get together with Howard and call themselves "mid"; talk movies and music from this unappreciated year; decide what 1970s pickup qualifies as a sports car; find joy in '70s colors and graphics; buck an engine trend; issue some you-heard-it-here-first car investment advice; make fun of Canadians; agree and disagree on Ferrari rooflines; make unwise choices for daily drivers; deride stock Scirocco wheels; show that one's favorite car and favorite boat can be one and the same; pick unfortunate children's names; skirt the rules in favor of the BMW M1; judge people based on their usernames; and lie about the next One-Year year.

We want to know: What five cars are on your list? Why are our picks stupid? What did we forget about in our race to pick perfection?

Alex and Zac are joined once again by BaT moto guru Tyler Greenblatt to discuss the intricacies of lane-splitting laws (or the absence thereof) in California; the ongoing resurgence of vintage Easy Rider-inspired Harleys with ape hangers; improper bike appearances in movies; rude stereotypes wry observations about BMW riders; the staying power of the vintage Honda minibike in our marketplace; groundbreaking early moto tech; Zac's aspiration to be the youngest person ever to go on a cross-country road trip on a Goldwing; a closet appreciation for the cash-guzzling Rune; the wisdom of sustained autobahn speeds in the US; and the secret talents and charisma of a Triumph triple. Tyler blows Alex's mind with a Cam Count before the trio moves on to play a New Game: blazing through all manner of performance bikes from the last 25 years.

Alex interviews Jeff Mason, Super-Legit Car Guy as well as President and COO of The Piston Foundation, whose mission is to fund skilled trades programs to help a new generation of craftspeople build rewarding careers in the collector car industry. They start with a primer on what Piston does before moving into the strong interest in cars displayed by today's youth; how modern job readiness and technical education have evolved; the influence of the "Maker Movement"; professional skills vs. trades, and the latter as a jumping off point for both technical and non-technical careers in the collector car industry; the intersection between artistic expression and mechanical inclination; the confidence boost and satisfaction of learning to do something real; and the joy of working with purely objective quality standards. They turn to Jeff's own automotive experiences, such as piggybacking off of someone else's midlife crisis, to great effect: racing with his brother in the Carrera Panamericana, the Mille Miglia, and other famous rallies to come. The pair close by detailing the direct, meaningful downstream effects of donations to the Piston Foundation and how collectors can help change the community's workforce from "graying to growing."

In episode 88 of the BaT Podcast, Alex, Randy, and Zac reunite to lick their respective social media wounds ahead of the third edition of their new favorite game, The One-Year Garage. This time, the year is 1956 and Howard kicks it off with an easy theft from Randy, who maintains that shoving one's children through uncomfortable spaces is much cooler than granting them their own doors and goes on to expound further on his own car-related deficiencies as a father.  They move on to briefly rank the wives of Don Draper and mention Zac's upcoming race weekend in a field of, coincidentally, 56 Spec Miatas. The conversation turns to very special Italian sports cars and shocks Randy with a Porsche transmission revelation. Howard proves that one can make an eye-roll obvious in an audio recording, Randy does his best to describe the ultimate way to drive over a Canada goose, and Alex declares a favorite car of all time. Wild card territory sees Howard singing and declaring his love for Mike Hawthorn, Randy poking fun at our brick-and-mortar compatriots, Zac courting legal trouble with Ferrari, and everyone failing to send a link to the producer. They wrap by barely scratching the surface of honorable mentions for this absolutely stellar year in automotive history.

Alex and Zac tag-team to take on the one and only actor, Honda spokesperson, philanthropist, and soon-to-be-ex-pro wrestler John Cena. They start with a dazzling, if incomplete, list of Cena's accomplishments before moving on to the beginnings of his fascination with torture by British car; the formative influence of Matchbox cars in the mud and Richard Scarry's Cars and Trucks and Things That Go; and the evolution from early East Coast hip-hop to the car-flaunting mainstream rap of the 2000s. Cena takes time out to demonstrate a perfect elevator pitch for the BaT model and community before diving back into the difference between Brock Lesner and a 2,000-pound supercar with 1,000 horsepower; the healthy balance struck in his relationship regarding car collecting and safety; humility as it relates to gratitude; finding the reward in running through the gears in his XK120, even without a turn in sight; the satisfaction of gauges arrayed across a wooden dash; a memorable first motorcycle experience followed by his brief residence in a Lincoln Continental; life lessons taught through two decades with his infamous un-Lambo; the difference between an intriguing car and one that just costs a lot; and finally, asking one's self the right questions about philanthropy.

Alex welcomes back George Levy, president of the Motorsports Hall of Fame of America, this time with Class of 2025 inductee (and all-around class act) Skip Barber in tow. Mr. Barber's upcoming induction into the Hall of Fame next March will include a private VIP meet-and-greet as well as other priceless experiences for the lucky winner of our current charity auction to benefit the 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. 

Skip talks about a modern electric car attempting to break track records around the world; cutting his teeth driving backward as much as forward; his early years of racing a dilapidated Bugeye on less than a shoestring budget before moving on to a string of "someone else's" British cars; being the fastest guy who never "made it"; the beauty of the Formula Ford; and March-ing forward from the unexpected end of his motor racing career to become a storied and successful coach for future greats of the sport. Alex and George then talk about the beginnings of the Hall of Fame, the voting process for new inductees, their museum at Daytona International Speedway, and the power of the can't-buy experiences that only the Hall of Fame can put together.

Alex interviews Jay Gillotti—previously the author of Gulf 917—about his new book, Porsche Decades, which seeks to illuminate the first 75 years of Porsche as well as the last 75 years that new fans of the marque are likely more familiar with. They talk about the four-year process of writing the book; switching from historical depth to historical breadth in an effort to also increase the breadth of the Porsche community; correcting a longstanding lapse in one's Porsche experience; how to pronounce "Huschke von Hanstein"; the journey to collectibility that (almost) every Porsche model takes; how to rope Miles Collier into writing the introduction to your book; how writing music informs writing books; and the evergreen nature of a 3.2 Carrera. 

Both of Mr. Gillotti's titles can be previewed and purchased at Daltonwatson.com.

In BaT Podcast Episode 84, Alex interviews the overwhelmingly knowledgeable Kim Barnes, who is the business development manager for vintage tire fitments at Michelin as well as a concours judge, car and motorcycle collector, and all-around friend of BaT. They talk about her love of cars as a child of the '60s and '70s, stemming in no small part from the split-window Corvette driven by her aptly named second-grade teacher, Miss Passion; keeping an AMC Gremlin trading card for decades until finally acquiring the real thing; starting a Schwinn bicycle restoration business in her mother's townhouse at the age of 12; daily driving an MGB GT for 350k miles; the highly effective, at least for one teenager, automotive product placement in Charlie's Angels; starting out on the auto show circuit at 16; being forced to take Home Ec instead of auto shop in school; the importance of mentoring young people; meeting her husband on a blind date predicated only by their mutual car enthusiasm; her path to her dream job at Michelin; fightin' words about stock vs modified tire sizes; a deep, deep dive into the various ranges of classic tires offered by Michelin; a simplified explanation of the main difference between bias-ply and radial tires; getting into concours judging via her own restored Sunbeam Alpine; tracking her Buell Thunderbolt; and skipping right to the top of the 964 heap.

Alex, Randy, and Zac bring New Blood into the New Game. Howard joins the crew after an extended hiatus to recap our largest Monterey Alumni Gathering yet, talking about favorite cars and sandwiches from the event, seeing how "the other guys" do things during Car Week, the ominous sight of too many AMG 6x6s in one place, the continuing search for the perfect Corkscrew shuttle, and two more upcoming BaT events to round out the year. They then move on to the matter at hand: picking the best cars from 1995 in several crucial categories, proceeding to argue about them, and capping them off with a veritable host of honorable mentions.

Randy sits down with our first European Local Partner to talk about BaT's growing presence in Europe; the excitement, travel, and friendships that come as a result of life in the classic car business; shared automotive passions; how Kenan got into the BaT game; his preferred international shipping methods; the curiously variable meaning of the word "perfect"; educating sellers about the benefits of transparency; revisiting the scene of a long-ago mishap in a 1750 GTV; some of the business experiences and notable cars that followed; and buying a TR6 on "photos and hope" in 1992.

In episode 81 of the BaT Podcast, Alex, Randy, and Zac reunite to Try a New Thing: game time! The One-Year Garage requires them to pick one car from a certain model year for each category: Sports Car, Family Hauler, Truck/4x4, Daily Driver, and Wild Card. They make up the rules as they go along, and along the way discuss local trivia about The Graduate; a two-tone requirement for Randy's future car collection; whether it's necessary to remember the names of one's offspring; dieting to fit in your diminutive daily driver; a little-known fact about the '67 Mustang; an episode-long argument [you're both right! -Ed.]; a heated debate about what constitutes a sports car [you're all right! -Ed.]; how said definition relates to the owner's heart health; and the undying question, "how wild is wild?"

We want to know: What five cars are on your list? Why are our picks stupid? What did we forget about in our race to pick perfection? Let us know in the comments!

Alex and Beck talk about usernames versus real names; the benefits of slow evolution and low staff turnover; the downside of not seeing one's coworkers often; the community and variety that make a BaT Alumni Gathering magic (coming up in Pittsburgh and California!); the appropriate qualifications to pick the coolest Corvette; showering awards upon a rental Viper RT/10; Radwood over the years; calling every front-engine Porsche a 928 just to irk Beck; the various ways to repower a VW Type 2; Zora Arkus-Duntov; the struggle to not talk Porsches at every opportunity, reinforced once again shortly thereafter; favorite automotive tuners; the best-looking fastbacks; the most compelling color names; and the most desirable of history's automotive factories to go back in time and visit.

Alex and Randy talk in depth about BaT's experience at our first European event, the Historic Grand Prix held at the world-famous Zandvoort F1 track; Dutch tow vehicles; historic racers vs. "historic" racers; the right-sized '64 Falcon in Europe; our excitement to roll out more Local Partners in the EU; reflecting on 10 years of BaT Auctions this month; a call for current information about Lot #1, Randy's old Boss 302; a mild dig at a certain brick-and-mortar auction house; BaT's long and varied history at Laguna Seca during Car Week; the upcoming BaT Alumni Gatherings at the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix on August 3 and the Monterey Historics on August 17; recent listings that have caught our eye; the modern practice of thumbing through a printed parts catalog on the way from the mailbox to the recycling bin; and, not unrelated, unsolicited thoughts on Summit Racing.

Alex and Randy sat down back in February with legends (there's really no other way to put it) of the vintage Porsche world, Vic and Barbara Skirmants of 356 Enterprises. They discussed the reasoning behind buying the same car three times, all for more money than the last; Vic starting out with a '58 coupe in 1963; getting into racing via flag duty at Waterford Hills in Michigan; "meeting" each other at Mid-Ohio in 1988; their mutual lengthy histories driving and crewing at races for decades; the 2022 repurchasing of Barbara's Sunbeam Tiger, first bought by her in 1969; matching owners with the long-lost original transmissions for their cars; the dying art of ring and pinion setup; sticking with what matters in listing photos and videos; the advantages of a country life with everything paid for; the highs and lows of paddock setup at the race track; two cents, or possibly more, about Rennsport; remaking vintage transaxle parts to keep special cars on the road; owning not one, but two Gmund coupes in the '70s, one of which was sold to Miles Collier; and Vic's early days as a refugee from World War II Latvia.

Please excuse the audio quality in this episode; we experienced some technical difficulties which have since been resolved.

Alex and Beck devote an episode to Porsche tech and racing trickledown, talking about the upcoming 992.2 GTS hybrid; Lumbergh from Office Space vs. any Sheen; Beck's recent deep dive into the 911 GT1; theories around homologation shenanigans; the racing aspirations of the 959 and the cars that preceded it; fake first gear; fudging crash tests; reflecting on the Cayenne after 20+ years; the beginnings of the Carrera GT; the rise of the spec racer; wise words from Dan Gurney, probably; the electrified future of lower-rung Porsches; a snuck-in aviation reference or two; the incoming 992.2 GTS; some mild ribbing of option- and allotment-obsessed fanatics; overpacking a base-model Golf solely because of its air conditioning; and Alex's desire for a comically American luxo-barge in which to transport his loved ones to Palm Springs.

Alex has the pleasure of interviewing none other than legendary racing pioneer Jim Hall as a preface to his conversation with president of the Motorsports Hall of Fame George Levy, who has just released a fantastic biography of Hall. The trio talk about the tragedy that punctuated Hall's formative years in Colorado; Hall's first incognito race car experience at 19; going to work for Carroll Shelby right out of college; the Maserati Birdcage; the early Hall photography of Bob Jackson, who would shortly become famous for quite another photo; buying a $2,600 war surplus P-51D Mustang over the phone; crash landing said Mustang into a churchyard; the doctrine of "there's always a better way"; Levy's experience interviewing other greats like Stewart, Gurney, and Penske for the book; overcoming telemarketer stigma to get to the good stuff; the most surprising information uncovered during that extensive research; the six important elements of every F1 car that were all introduced by Hall in the '60s; a writing trial by fire at Autoweek; how to order the book; the Motorsports Hall of Fame in Daytona; the Lancia Stratos as the perfect car for the taller man; and the wonders of happenstance.

Alex and Beck (not actually a professor, but himself a former AP photojournalist) go deep into the field of photos on BaT, moving beyond the basics to cover the relationship between attention-getting shots and informational shots; videos as proof of life; parental nurse cosplay; the optimum "pull gear" for a driving video; asset versus opportunity; things to look out for when hiring a pro; experiential photos for mid-auction engagement; the most important aspects of shooting a BaT Alumni Gathering; the perils of attempting rolling shots; a digression into the venerable, quickly appreciating W124 Mercedes-Benz; the wisdom of the seller-provided PPI and the omission of sales fluff; BaT firsts, even after all this time; a major deficiency in Beck's automotive upbringing; the '70s European cars ripe for modification; and automotive camera brand equivalents.

Randy and automotive journalist Hannah Elliott of Bloomberg attempt to see if lightning can strike twice! Their talk includes slow revelations about doing what comes naturally; the beginnings of her journalistic career; the advantages of coming onto a new beat as a total novice; avoiding your car being the most interesting thing about you; what the term "car guy" really means (hint: nothing); the importance of not boring oneself; the ongoing saga of modern F1; Hannah's own Bloomberg podcast, Hot Pursuit!; Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este and FuoriConcorso as a double header; touring the old test track atop Lingotto, the former Fiat factory, in Turin; the shocking lack of respect generated by a powder blue C3 in LA; and being in the market for a Rolls-Royce Camargue.

Alex brings the whole crew in to give an overview of the Overcrest Redux rally in Utah and talk about a brief stop at a post-apocalyptic gas station; a religious experience with a '69 Road Runner; revelations on the Loneliest Road; driving the wide-open spaces of the desert West; a forced-induction rendezvous; single-day mileage records; our upcoming Meet-Up at LeMay - America's Car Museum in Tacoma, WA; our first event in Europe at the Historic Grand Prix in at Zandvoort in the Netherlands; the need to freshen the fleet; the unsung heroism of the Nissan Xterra; absolutely no discussion of at what age a car becomes vintage; mild offroading in a Ferrari; Questions of the Week; and Randy, mostly right as usual.

Alex brings on special guest Beck Diefenbach, manager of the BaT White Glove team, to discuss clandestine BaT operations; the differences between White Glove and Premium listings, as well as the differences between WG and other paths to auction; the singular experience of hitting a San Francisco pothole full-bore in a 911 SC Targa; high-end sellers and buyers who are shocked at the low fee structures at BaT versus what they might be used to; various collection highlights in BaT history; the merits of the early impact-bumper 911; dangerous words about the Fox-body Mustang and the SN95 that followed; the terrible greatness of Alex's Thunderbird Turbo Coupe; the curious spec of the final air-cooled Porsche sent to the US market, produced for one Jerry Seinfeld; and training oneself to shut up in the service of one's professional growth.

Randy, Alex, Zac, and Howard discuss the undying popularity of the Lexus LFA and various Heritage Edition Ford GTs; Randy's experience at Tour Auto in Paris and the resulting aspirations for next year; Zac's recent adventures piloting hot kei cars in Japan, where the rain is slipperier than US rain and the car scene is otherworldly; hard-hitting questions about the JDM snack scene; the mysterious Edelbrock/Weber carburetor; Howard on seeing new parts of California in air-conditioned comfort on the 2024 Cal Mille, and the appropriate amount of prep time for an Alfa 1900 destined for such an event; opinion-gathering on the modern 935; the extensive requirements and eye-watering labor bill for an alignment on a 996 GT3 Cup car as compared to the street version; the endless, colorful expanse of Luft Air|Water, including a curious proliferation of pink; devising a new PTS-D color class for future Porsche shows; the sudden appearance of a Vector in its natural habitat; and the art of fending off chummy reserve inquiries.

In this episode, Tyler talks with country rock guitarist, vintage BMW aficionado, and frequent motorcycle seller David Lee, who has made quite a name for himself on BaT as he approaches 50 sales. They cover early parental concerns about motorcycle riding; obsessive tendencies; the power of the no-reserve auction format; a red door as branding; building community by selling from the heart; the upcoming Quail Motorcycle Gathering long-distance rides on old bikes; a near miss on the Autostrada and the life-changing insanity of riding in Italy; the endless wonders of the western USA, especially when experienced on a BMW GS; how to achieve success as a beginner on BaT; therapy through working on bikes; and the origins of the infamous “riding gloves.”

Alex talks with Road Scholars founder and CEO Cam Ingram about the first 356 and 550 Spyder that made him fall in love with cars and Porsches as an art student in the '90s; sweeping floors at a local shop, as every good automotive career begins with; getting laid out on the floor by an angry painter; the evolution of the shop industry; the ultimate sexiness of the four-cam Fuhrmann motor; which "plastic Porsche" is the best; bringing new and younger interest to the brand; a recently discovered passion for the Dodge Demon; the necessity of trading in boats, houses, and helicopters to get to the good cars; daily driving an E36 M3; whether German cars should come in any color aside from white; the sublimity of the modern 935; various forms of anatomy on display at the Indy 500 infield; the requisite salty old Brit in the shop; the imminent future of Road Scholars, including training the next generation of automotive craftspeople; restoring the 94th Porsche ever built, for Miles Collier; and highlights of the family collection, including their award-winning 1961 356B Carrera Abarth GTL and a host of other highly notable P-cars.

In this episode, Alex and Howard (newly returned to the West Coast) talk about last weekend's Alumni Gathering in Scottsdale, Arizona; the upcoming California Mille; "racing budget dysmorphia"; the wide array of parts, memorabilia, artwork, and even furniture now available on BaT; current listings catching their eye; the BaT community's ability to discern between good, great, and exceptional; getting some color into your life via car collecting; forced learning about mid-'70s land yachts; an admission of QotW-related guilt; driving cross-country on a borrowed Hudson key; true automotive comfort versus simply not being crippled at the end of a long drive; the scariest corners, both real and digital; and mechanical insubordination.

At long last, Randy sits down with Anthony Serra—the driving force, along with his superstar team, of the highest-volume seller on BaT with nearly 1,400 listings and counting.

They discuss Anthony's lifetime in the car business, from the family trade in '80s gray-market imports to a racing career to his first BaT listing and beyond; the importance of putting systems in place to operate at scale; focusing on the long view rather than a single sale price; how detailed photos can make a sale; becoming known as a purveyor of the Ferrari BB; inducing happy tears in the first winner of such a car; the rise of the 1989 Porsche 911 Speedster; falling into the role of Local Partner to the world; maintaining a well-deserved reputation as an engaged and high-touch seller; the additive nature of every comment on BaT, even the negative ones; specializing in "dog cars" and dearly departed longroofs; cars that "flunk the shop"; how COVID changed the business forever; achieving success by surrounding oneself with passionate enthusiasts, dedicated friends, and the worldwide BaT community; and how that community may soon get to experience Smell-O-Vision, 1600Veloce style.

Be on the lookout for an official announcement about our 2024 New York-area Alumni Gathering with 1600veloce! It's going to be a blast, and we'll publish details as soon as we can.

Alex and Zac discuss the highs and lows inherent of owning a fleet of first-world problems; shaming one's old supercar with one's FWD daily driver; sharing Laguna Seca with a Cybertruck; finding an age-appropriate classic; building the ultimate 356 in your head; what makes vintage vintage; Slantnose pros and cons; NSX desires, and preparing one for the long haul to the upcoming Overcrest Redux rally in May; Alex's first trip to the Indy 500; Zac's second trip to Japan, this time to partake in a Kei car rally; and Luftgekühlt Air|Water as an introductory car show.

In this episode, Ken Lingengelter talks with Alex about his first career in title insurance; getting arrested for driving a Chevy in Dearborn; his lifelong love affair with the Corvette; taking on the Lingenfelter mantle from the late John, and the company's subsequent expansion; the Lingenfelter Collection's array of charitable endeavors; beating the Blue Angels to 60 in a C5 Corvette; the perils of a broad set of automotive interests; the perils and joys of being in the "Ferrari Club"; being married to an autocross monster; the legacy of Shirley Muldowney; a Chevette that gets all the attention; electric crate motors for muscle cars; the pleasures of the car-person community; and glowing praise for the C8 Corvette in all forms, not least his company's new 710-horsepower supercharged version. 

Alex and Randy talk about our recent Meet-Up event on Saturday, March 16, in Encinitas, California; evading Ospreys while humming Kenny Loggins at Miramar; a plug for Randy's upcoming appearance on Spike's Car Radio; getting the good cars out of mothballs for the spring; correct California license plate colors; what they've got their eyes on in a time of record-breaking volume on BaT; imagining a Christmas morning present delivered via flatbed and forklift; divine intentions regarding 1960s headlights; the allure of driving a loud car slow; chain-drive gaskets as nightmare fuel; the recent glut of interesting Fairlanes on BaT; and how a V8 makes everything better on the Copperstate Rally. Also, they give an overview and discuss the benefits of BaT's new Verified Checkout service, which is rolling out this week!

In this episode, Randy and Alex sit down with Shelby expert, restorer, journalist, author, and frequent BaT seller Colin Comer. The talk about his path from his first MGB GT into the world of bargain Ferraris on his ultimate path to Shelby collection and expertise; a (literal) run-in with the law as a teenager in a rusty GTV; his hot take on the Cobra Daytona Coupe versus a plain-Jane roadster; sharing a Lister Knobbly with Sam Smith for a thousand miles; telling Keith Martin to stick to sports cars; the pitfalls and history-preserving rewards of being talked into book authorship while driving a 427 Cobra in the snow; buying "plenty" of Bugeye Sprites on the advice of Peter Egan; and important things scrawled on bathroom walls.

Sit down with Alex and get to know Tyler Greenblatt, BaT's resident motorcycle guru and just an all-around charming individual. The two talk about Ducatis, Harleys, Vincents, Hondas, and a number of other lovely or oddball bikes; the great time we had at the 2023 Quail Motorcycle Gathering, and every BaT Alumni Gathering; several "lightning round" questions of the slow lightning variety; and many, many tangents. 

We aim to feature more staff appearances on the podcast to go along with the roundtables and interviews you already know and love, and we have some notable motorcycle industry guests coming up on our roster who we are very excited about.

Here he is, folks—the one-and-only, the legendary, the beloved Peter Egan. He of Side Glances in Road & Track, of countless harebrained but inspirational road trips, of mock road tests, and so much more. This is the man so many of us at BaT and beyond like to think we've fashioned ourselves after; a modest and humble writer who, perhaps unknowingly, has played a formative role in our addictions to the great machinery of the world, the call of the open road, and the treasures to be found when they are combined. 

Peter sits down with Alex in his erstwhile stomping grounds of coastal Orange County, California, to discuss his career and the cars, bikes, planes, people, and places he formed it around. They cover his entry into journalism via Cycle World; the power of an interesting car (or a Piper Cub) to make friends out of strangers in faraway lands; the social advantage of touring in someone else's Ferrari; a memorable show with Chuck Berry and Billy Peek; catching a glimpse of the Old Man at Fiorano; the art of (somewhat) feigning ignorance; getting locked into the Morgan factory at Malvern, England; sharing the last Everest flight of the season with a lone co-passenger who happens to be Neil Sedaka; whether Egan's next project will be a 76-year-old British sports car or a 27-year-old Italian superbike; and how Barb stuck with him come fire and come rain (yes, Barb really is that great).

Alex and Zac discuss the impressive values attained by Emory Speedsters and their modded Porsche brethren; Zac dreams of a Mk IV Supra beater; Alex is presented with a lengthy, detailed, and possibly accurate primer on the R34 Skyline; the duo field questions from members of the BaT staff posing as BaT sellers; and Zac comes perilously close to softening his opinions on tastes held by other people.

In this episode, Alex sits down for an engaging conversation with prolific freelance writer and interviewer AJ Baime, author of Go Like Hell: Ford, Ferrari, and Their Battle for Speed and Glory at Le Mans; The Arsenal of Democracy: FDR, Detroit, and an Epic Quest to Arm an America at War; and his most recent collaboration, an autobiography of racer (and secret drug smuggler) Randy Lanier entitled Survival of the Fastest: Weed, Speed, and the 1980s Drug Scandal that Shocked the Sports World.

Also covered is the Ford v Ferrari movie based on Baime's book, the joys and importance of interviewing the old guard of the motorsports world, and a Malibu afternoon spent in a Lamborghini with Ferrari director Michael Mann.

The story of how they met and collaborated on this impressive project is absolutely worth a listen.

The Bring a Trailer team sits down to discuss the sites and highlights of the 2022 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, and explore the impact on current market trends in the enthusiast and collector community.

Howard, Alex, and Zac circle up to discuss the Lamborghini market, debrief on our fantastic Seattle Bring a Trailer Alumni Event, and dish on their favorite recent listings including a 1955 Austin Healey 100S, a TdF-bodied Ferrari 250 GT, a Bugatti Type 59/50, and more, and share tales from the recent Copperstate 1000 Rally.

Howard sits down with Reggie Jackson to talk about his great car stories as well as what he loves collecting today.

Tune in to hear these and much more in this 44th episode about #44!
