Insane Purpose-Built Garage of our Dreams: Matt Farah’s Westside Collector Car Storage

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ก.พ. 2021
  • Matt Farah is an automotive renaissance man. Car journalism, podcasts, vlogs, and now - construction?? Matt’s new venture, Westside Collector Car Storage, looks more like a Gran Turismo garage than real life. But the path to get there was not easy, ranging from out-of-code sidewalk reconstruction, to damn near getting a moat installed (that he didn’t ask for). But the end result is a drool-worthy collection of cars, from weekenders to long term storage cars.

    Maybe he was just in so deep that there was no way of backing out.

    I hope it's a ripping success, as it deserves to be.

    I feel like I've seen this video 6 times already, but I watched it all the way through.

    In term of engineering sophistication, this garage is like the Panama Canal of automobile storage.
