Honestly anyone that knows anything abt cars will know this is one of the greatest collections you’ll ever see in your life, imagine having two 917s. Had a smile on my face the whole video
I second that
my dream would be to live in that garage , such a beautiful place with top work going on
What I would do to be part of that garage and work there doing anything
Sales mech 12v electrical body fiberglass .Porsche heaven
This man is pure automotive passion..
If I have access to food and water I think I could live inside that shop for the rest of my life.
Thanks man 🍺
What an amazing encyclopedic knowledge of all of the cars
Wow!!! What a treasure to have this museum in our country!
This is incredible it doesn't get any better than this.
The man has good taste in racing cars that’s for sure.
Bruce Canepa is a class act. In 2003 I had a 944 and drove with a group of other 944 owners down to his shop/museum. He showed us around as if we were high rollers. Great guy and a great facility.
Oh my ! This is the most extensive and passionate shop tour I’ve ever been on. Please let me say: thank you.
Bruce is outdone by Jay's sheer volume of awesome cars, but Bruce's focus on racing is superb. Their passion is about the same! And I understand the museum is free. That's unheard of. Nice job, Bruce. Congratulations on your success.
He describes in detail a wide variety of makes and models of streetcars and racing types. I appreciate the fact that Mr. Canepa doesn't talk about the cost of any of the vehicles even though he could have easily gone on and on about the millions and millions of dollars on display. A true car guy.
He said the average time spent on each restoration is 4,000 hours. Let's say his rate is 250$/hour.
That gives us... 1 cool million$ ! 😱
And I thought sending him my 35 y.o. 2.8 Fiero GT engine for an upgrade... 🤪
The money part is just obseane. The people he does business with have more money than most people will make in a lifetime.
Thats an amazing collection of cars. And Mr Canepa is really a down to earth person. Respect. Greetings from Belgium.
959 is an amazing car. One of my favourite. The technology, the appeal... Pinnacle Porsche. Never seen so many of them in one shop
Agreed!
Outstanding! One of the best automotive vids on youtube.
Could listen to your storys for days on and on. Amazing. Still have goosebumps. If I ever get back to CA from germany for sure I‘ll visit your unbelieveable museum.
It‘s #1 in my personal bucket list
Greetings from Porsche-country.
if you're a car guy, this is the best place on earth
Thank you Bruce for sharing your passion and that fantastic trip through your facility.
Incredible. This building must house the largest number of 959s anywhere.
That 964 RS is.... Wow.
I'm not a big fan of black on vehicles but that thing is absolutely beautiful
I’m overdue to visit Scott’s Valley to stay at our friend’s house up the street from your shop. We look forward to visiting your showroom and museum!
Great video tour thank you!
Walking automobile encyclopedia!! Beautiful projects and magnificent facilities.
I like the fact that you can explain things and take Pride in your shop’s work but no sign of Bragging. Refreshing.
Casually, "This is a 917, there are two of them here" what a collection, those old Porsche race cars are something special
And not just any two. The Daytona winner AND the CAN-AM car. 0-100mph 2.8s, 0-150mph 5.8s
@@alexmartinez280 Can-Am was one of the golden ages of racing
Was just thinking about the insurance value of that buildings contents. Boggles my mind.
What a man, thanks for conserving all these beautiful cars.
My daughter attended college near the Canepa facility, and whenever I went down there I always stopped in to check out the museum. It is awesome how the inventory is always rotated, so every time I went I saw something different. I also hugely respect that the museum is free, so those of us who could not possibly afford to buy anything from Canepa can still get a lot of enjoyment from the cars on display.
Bruce you are a genius.
best, most informed and interesting host of any automotive channel
Absolute class and humility! Thank you Bruce!!!
My favorite was the sprint cars... big balls to race them back when that car was built ...
Stupenda collezione. Anche potendo ammirare il video, si sente il profumo della Storia e la Passione, del proprietario.
Fantastica la BMW M 1.
That is quite literally my dream garage lol. All of my favorite cars of all time are in there, it’s making me jealous lol.
WOW! What a video. Bruce could have taken twice as much time telling me about his operation and vehicles and I wouldn't have minded a bit. I noticed I've seen several of these at the Monterey Historic Races. Thank you to Bruce, his team and the owners for spending their time and money so those who never went to a CANAM, or LeMans, or GTP race can see these machines do what they were designed to do.
Fascinating video . Thanks
I have been watching classic cars videos for years and let me tell you that's the best! What a nice and rumble guy! I definitely will go visit! Thank you Mr. Canepa, you made my day! From a Brazilian car race fan
How can one man know so much, speak of each car's specification and history with such detail and ease?! Unbelievable. If there is one man living his ultimate passion, this is he.
I was brought tears of happiness of how much beauty was under one roof
Wow, great to see the M1. Was one of my favorites when it came out.
How can I ever say thank you enough to Bruce Canapa for the best video ever on You Tube. Wow worth every minute of my time. I too am a Porsche lover. Hope some day to get out your way and see your shop. Greg
Wow 😮 That was a great tour of your facility. Thank you
That was a great tour of your facility. We visited the museum once. Thank you 😊
What an absolutely fantastic video! The collective knowledge and expertise of his team for how they perform their work is incredible.
This place is heaven.
This was a pleasure to watch.
best shop tour I've seen
Wow, congratulations on your awesome car collection, one of a kind. I would love to own one of those Porches. God bless you my friend.
Mind boggling, you can feel the knowledge and compassion streaming from Mr. Canepa’s soul. Best car tour ever. Attention to detail must be his middle name, everything is SPOTLESS. If you have a special collector car you want this gentleman to be involved in restoring it.
wow, what an awsome collection of cars, respect for keeping them
Wow… road trip to Santa Cruz… love to see the museum! Bruce’s (KB) knowledge base worth more than all the rolling stock, IMO.
Amazing assortment of stunning cars Thankyou for this video.A thoroughly enjoyable 52 minutes.
The #11 Porsche 934.5 was originally the #30 Dyer Motor Racing turbo which won the Daytona Paul Revere 250 overall. Sold to Canepa in 1978 after finishing the '77 IMSA season 3rd overall. Season included a 2nd at the Daytona 24hr and an overall win at the Sebring 12hr. The Canepa shop should be on every enthusiast's list of go to places.
Amazing collection, God bless.
This is what the Home-Of-The Gods looks like. and we got to see it. WOW!
What a collection.👍🏆
Wow Bruce , that was incredible . Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Alladdin's Cave on Steroids , Haaaaaaa , brilliant !
Beautiful cars! I really enjoy the stories behind the vehicles in Bruce's Canepa collection. Thank you for posting this video for everyone.
Bruce is a legend.
Thank you Bruce. That was a really cool showcase. As a Porsche fan myself, you have me drooling.
Probably the best video I've ever stumbled across in TH-cam existence. My 3 all time favorite cars, Gulf 917, 959 and 3.6 turbo, though he didn't talk about it. I wonder how much he charges to restore a 959?
His custom "SC" versions I've heard go for a cool million plus, PLUS the car itself
Genuine guy .. incredible place
Thank you Bruce, enjoyed a chance to see amazing cars.
That was awesome!
Very cool collection and shop.
The Porsche race car collection is incredible!
God, I wish I could have gotten to work at Canepa
WOW. Absolutely Astonishing
What an incredible shop tour !!! He’s an amazing guy too and very lucky to do what he does. There’s not many people I could listen to for 50+ minutes but every word on every car kept my interest. Fantastic !!!
The only thing that made me sad was that I’ll never get anywhere near this level of automotive perfection let alone drive and sadly never come even close to owning one of these beautiful cars.
Man what a toy box you have Bruce! I've got a hot wheels collection, you've got the real thing! Well done sir!
The fastest hour on TH-cam. Thanks Bruce.
You're a legend bruce!!!
This just showed up in my feed and I don't regret one second watching it. Thank you so much for this shop tour.
Great video. What an amazing place. Hope to visit someday, preferably when I win the lottery!
What a literally stunning collection.
I'm blown away.
Deep respect.
Greetings from Holland.
This is an incredible shop. As a mechanic and restorer I can only compare this shop to Paul Russell & Company here on the east coast.
Bruce Canepa: “We focus on completely restoring the car to its original state, down to every nut and bolt”
also Bruce Canepa: “Here’s a Maybach that we slammed and hot-rodded!”
This man is a true petrol head
Love what i see and hear, just to bad I am young with no money. Getting ready to work my ass of. Got a dream to have some of these pieces. God bless you all, stay safe
Better than being old with no money. 🤡
Wow, enough said.
Thank you
Thank you Bruce I really really enjoyed your Tour , Definitely a bucket list now hope to make it up there Someday thank you take care 🙂
Thanks Bruce...wow !
What an awesome collection! I love all the appreciation of the early years of Southern California racing/hot rodding.
Great collection. Heaven for every petrolhead.
The Car.
I love them, in fact, most things Automotive. Beautiful.
If a heart got a place for a Porsche, sure something is beautiful in the soul.
Commenting from the back of my VW Caddy van. Sleeping here tonight.
😁🌻👍🏻👋🏻
The 917 is the most beautiful race car, and the Gulf livery is the best paint job on a 917.
Incredible History!!! And OMG that Audi R15 TDI, Good God that thing looks like it came from a distant planet with a super advanced civilization!!!
Thanks Bruce!
Mind blown! 🤯
The shop and the showroom are epic, but the museum is a whole other level!! I think I saw 3 or 4 real versions of the slot cars I had in the early 80's!
Incredible cars and amazing shop. Never seen this until now, very glad I did. Thanks for taking the time to show and explain the history behind the cars. “Keep gettin them checks. keep givin the people what they want.” 👏🏾🙌🏾🖖🏾
Wow ! That was a great trip thru the awsome cars i have seen in a long long time ! Thanks for showing your treasures ....
I remember meeting you when I was 11 since I live 15 minutes from here you’re a very nice person and I love the place
Thankyou for the wonderful, and informative tour. All the best to you, from Australia.
Canepa does to 959's as Singer does to 911's, almost an entirely different/new car with only a recognizable silhouette.
The 31 people that disliked this are environmentalists and dislike cars.
Great video just stumbled across your channel you have great knowledge of all types of cars.
Do you have group B rally cars like Lancia 037 ,Ford RS200s etc?
959s are my favourite Porsche cars. They set the trend of what cars would be like today
We hope that you are enjoying the content! if you are interested in reading more about one of the Group B homologation cars, head over to our website to read more on the RS200! canepa.com/photo-gallery/1986-ford-rs2006197/
Amazing!!
Oh my, it's spectacular!
What a guy! What a place!
Thank you Bruce. I worked for you when you had your shop on Water Street in Santa Cruz. You have a beautiful shop here in Scotts Valley
love it thanks
Listened to every second, sublime. Thankyou.
so much motoring history in one place, great video thank you for sharing motoring history and preserving motor history.im new here and im subscribing to your channel.
A few years ago when I was working the San Jose Grand Prix (about 25 miles north) and our mgmt. group came for a tour of Bruce's place. I have been to many Auto Museums and I can tell you, Canepa's beats them ALL. Why? Because Auto Museums just show you finished cars, maybe some are in "barn find" shape. But you don't get to see any taken apart, getting repaired or painted and assembled. To me, I would rather see the guts of the best designed and engineered cars on the planet. I also loved hearing how Bruce and his guys make them better with modern upgrades. Keeping a vehicle stock is fine for collectors, but I like to drive and therefore, I want the best part replacing what was only available when the car first came out. I have to say Porsche is my fav as well seeing them first when I went to Laguna Seca back in the 70's. Thankfully I can afford the two I have and love taking them out. I quickly forget why I don't even turn on my stereos. Thanks Bruce for your valuable time and show of LOVE for what you have accomplished and do EVERY day.
I’m glad this was in my recommendations and I clicked on it! Awesome collection and great shop!!!
