TIM ALLEN'S ENTIRE CAR COLLECTION | CELEBRITY GARAGE TOUR PT. 1

oh, you see, just kidding, you never know who will show up in my neighborhood here, welcome to the Peterson museum, okay, come on in, you know what, I'm going to close that door behind you just in case, because you never know in my neighborhood . so you walk past me like this, you keep walking in that direction, take a look there, walk a little bit and then I'll close the door, okay people, what I usually like to do is start at one end, so follow me. an old printing building that I bought many years ago. Cute story, just for me: they kept making me come at a certain time of day because I was going to use it as a sound stage and they kept saying well you're coming around 11.40 and then they quickly took me out of here at 11.48 and I bought it and then of course when I went back to do it I realized it was right under the entrance to the Burbank airport uh runway so the planes can fly for a long time.

It's not a good location for a given set, although I've used it for several films and I'm currently filming a show called Assembly Required with Richard Karn in this space, so this begins. I generally don't give

tour

s to people like my friend Leno below. the block about a mile the original disney home improvement sign i thought they were joking they said whatever you want from the show when i canceled the show or i canceled it when i left the show and said yeah why don't you give me. the sign and showed up like a day later as the last man standing where we are filming our final season this season there will be memories here about the last man standing starting with the cars this is the driving section My wife's pristine 72 Bronco no They've done a lot to it, which means I don't like driving it with too short a wheelbase, two big guitars, but my wife loves this car, literally, even the guys at the shop, none of us really like driving it, anyone He drove a Bronco.

I like that the short wheelbase is not a friendly thing. I bought this online. I wanted a Karman team. I love Carmen Ghias. This was a special version that was built in Seattle. I made some modifications to it. It's basically a 71 carbon kit mixed with a 55. Porsche, so there are elements of both in the interior, it has elements of Porsche in its handling, it's brilliant, I put it in with one of the guys from the workshop, I don't feel good, I have no other way to describe it that way, it works very well. I feel like I need an ascot and big sunglasses and when I bought it I thought it was a hardtop.

The guy really wanted to sell it. I didn't really want the convertible. My wife loves her car, so that's hers and then. I'm going to change, oh God, get out of the way. The Volvo is another surprise I received from my wife. She loves eclectic cars like this one. I've remodeled this several times. Volvo is if you, I live in the east and they told me. the most reliable car in the winter in Michigan, although I don't know why it seems bulletproof, I think it was back in the day, I thought it was a little ugly now I think it's lovely looking, it's just very slow and doesn't I don't think It handles very well, the dash seems a little weird to me, but it's a top-notch piece and they have some value right now last time I was at Barrett-Jackson joking, this is the third Ford F-150 truck. which I bought at barrett-jackson for I don't know why because I don't like buying at auctions I think the price is inflated because it's too exciting this is a hundred year celebration of the ford f-100 engine companies that built this with mclaren I was sitting in the back of a lot and I said, damn, that's cool, the wheels are dated for their time, I think it was probably 20 years ago, so whatever the 100 year anniversary is, it's built to beat the band , it's really a track car it's almost like a stock car chassis, I think the reason it sold for nothing was and I've changed a few things, make it driver, I really like driving it, I think most people cuts them.

I have one that is cut. I have one that has a blown hemi and here's my train, so this thing has its cool units, it gets a lot of views, it's a little dated, I've decided I won't do anything to it in general that I wouldn't. know my way, this is a really interesting piece, my 90's impala lt5, I think, gosh, maybe 2090. oh 96. I had two of these when I worked in home improvement, so since I wanted to look like a FBI or the president so we had two imitated nothing imitated so this was a chevy project with myself I put the 427 zr1 aluminum engine I think it was from murky marine from oklahoma it has interior parts from cadillac it has jaguar shelves in the back so you can it's like a limousine type thing in pomona, if I remember and my memory is colorful, I think I did a mile 12, nine and a quarter when I first got out of this, this thing slides, it has absolutely excellent traction, It's a terribly fast sedan. and I remember the cameraman was saying do you know what you're doing in this? and I said no, not at all, I mean, little, one hand, but this thing sets up, it connects, it's a fast car, chevy, after they did it, they said "we." I will never do this again, the idea was and I have probably made five prototypes like this for Chevy.

This is before Chevy had performance cars. I certainly think the sedan is still a really attractive sedan to me. A lot of research went into this and I transferred it to cadillac and probably made five prototypes for cadillac. They are on posters around here where I wanted to have an amg version of cadillac. It was to them, we built it with Jeff Beitzel from Michigan and he was the one who passed away. and it was a great moment in my life because I can go with GM and they do whatever they worked with us new management came and that memory went away and it became the cts versions and I had a lot to do with it The group had a lot to do with that, being part of the history of Cadillac, my

collection

of American cars, I call them trucks, I don't know what it was like when they said someone was going, hey Tony, what if we put the truck engine and the galaxy? with the 427 I mean you see the interior is over the top 60's I love this big shifter rear axle shifter they drive let's be honest I have a demon I drive a demon with the chip that's nearby 890 horses, maybe 900.

None of this. They're like trucks, they barely get out of your way, they feel like they're going fast, no, they don't have brakes, they don't have steering, unlike jay who will drive anything he can get his hands on in these, I'm going, something's wrong, guys, yeah, Yeah. it's a 1964, it's what the big chevy bubble top 409 engine is, even today it's a big engine bench seat, as you can see the bench seat support sent on the floor. I love how simple it was. They just said that they put the big engine in it. The feeling is that the 409 was a weak engine at the bottom end because many of these blew up early.

I still think it's when you rev ​​it, it's a great sound and it's a wonderful piece of wood, Paul, let's put the truck engine in there. with a four cylinder, I don't know how they came up with these performance cars, I just love that the men and women who did that many years ago in a movie, I think it was the first Le Mans movie or maybe the Grand Prix of Chara. The guy who played Ferrari drove this particular 330 gtc to the race and I've always loved this car. I've always loved the look of it. I love the Alfa Romero GTV that looks like this.

I love that compact. Look, once this is out of the way, Porsche and Ferrari, in my opinion, need to be driven a lot to behave if you let these things sit still. I don't drive much. I just redid it again. Carburetor tubes. Refrigerant. You have to drive it. and if i get lazy i end up driving the demon or my tesla which is just a golf cart with an apple phone it has its own personality it's a bit boring but it does what it does extremely well we'll get back to that this ferrari . although when he sings it's hard to believe it's 1966, you get into it there's something about the way it feels the way the engine pulls well there's nothing like a 12 cylinder engine except I think we're at the end, aren't we It's a little sad that Hot Rodders Electric are going that way.

I'm making an electric hot rod. Do not kill me. I'll show it to everyone later. It has been a great project and she is a beautiful Vicky. I put it on YouTube. If you want to see it, the gto was. I used to race these in Woodward with a friend of mine's dad who owned a Pontiac, an asphalt company around Detroit and he paved the dealerships and his son used to get them home. I knew it. What were they? The child, isn't he going? Will they fine me if they stop us? No if I'm driving I get the ticket you drive and we had a 455 goat as we call them convertible that had a 30 roll. 28 mile roll there wasn't much that could beat it it didn't have posi traction cut two this came for

collection

this is a very rare ram air four it was a drag car i toned it down a little i put on the old honeycomb wheels Getting back to this, for me this is one of the best ways to drive because they have variable ratio power steering so connects and configures.

I still think it's a great car, it has some wings, it hauls, but nothing like that, I think Damn tesla, I have that model 3 with some mods, it's one of the fastest cars here and it's literally not offensive Mr. Musk , it's a golf cart, you know, it has no moving parts, it's kind of creepy, speaking of the creepy, uh joe pesci, who every time I stopped, I know Joe and I stopped because that's the only car of yours that I like it. I told Joe you belong in this finished 44. I've gone through three different variations of this car.

I love the shape of this car. that huge vintage custom backseat was made in the '60s and it's a maroon or burgundy tuck and roll whatever color, uh, vinyl and I left it, I customized it once in the '60s and then I put it on remote control and finally took the old ford components underneath and put modern components and it's a great car to drive, it looks old, it's not old, it moves but it doesn't move, it's a real cruiser, you know, it's all about looking cool when you drive things like this, I am a truck.

Boy, when I was a kid I was driving, my favorite book was The Wizarding World of Trucks or something like that. I found it in a used bookstore and this was not a barn find, but I looked, I was looking for the first sleeper cab, so this As far as I can tell, five of only five of these remain from the original Studebaker sleeper cab. The guy who built this was over 80 years old when I found him in western or eastern Pennsylvania. You know, I called and I took pictures and there's a guy who was probably in two world wars and I tell him I need proof of purchase and all this kind of stuff and he says, "Well, I want to know if you are who you say you are." are before sending the check because who else could it be?

I didn't have an answer for that. I said good. I need some kind of reference to prove that you are who you say you are. Why should it be someone else? He said maybe. could you talk to my brother or your brother you can't be a reference he says you don't know my damn brother this guy redid this whole thing it's an ash frame inside again i hate to give credit to leno but i had him call him because he didn't know how to drive it , it's not synchronized up or down, so you have to find the up gears, you have to find the down gears, it's literally an upper body workout with this thing, it's very difficult to drive, but for Era mi era, I used to have my little one and we would have breakfast here.

I love sitting there and this stupid little thing in the back is sleeper cabs, but at the moment I think they were horses and then they. He had these things that looked like horse carriages but with motors and you're still outdoors. This was the first closed cabin. I mentioned that the men driving this were probably leaving now. Well, this is living and I said it's great and of course. you'll get these shots of I have a Spitfire Chase and a Measure Smith for no apparent reason. I just have airplanes flying everywhere because I love airplanes and these are another collection.

I found a guy who passed away who had these cool ones. model airplanes around here i was interested in rally cars for quite a while and uh peugeot renault had all these rally cars around this time and i'll defer to someone given the details of that era in '88 i think and this is a ford rs200 and it is a very different car I think it is as modern now as ever it is an rs200 rs3 it is an rs200 yes so this rs200 rally car bought in england ford retired from the race tragically the first time it ran in a race, yes no bad memory serves again, they went off the road somewhere in Germany and 20 people were blown up, I think four or five people died and they canceled that racing service, so there were 250 that they had to do to be able to compete with them sitting in this warehouse. in England and they didn't sell them, so I paid a lot of money at the time for it, and I brought it back here and drove it several times to do home improvements and the Burbank cops, who may know me, aren'tSo.

I sped up but it was always driving something peculiar and he said, "You know, Mr. Allen, that's not a D.O.T. certified vehicle and I told him no, it's not. He goes. I know I could take it from him. It's not. That's when They are D.O.T certified you are not allowed to drive them, I go oh no, it has bumpers and all that no, it's not about bumpers, it's not allowed on the road and if it was bad I could take the vehicle and you would never see it again, I go Well, I don't want my voice to always go up when I'm nervous, I don't want that to happen, he says, it won't happen, but we're going to have to tell you not to drive like that, so I had this at the Willow race track and I think that Emerson apologized in a way or told me or threw me a resource that he had raced with him, I think, and said everything you know about racing cars that fortunately I raced for Ford for Trans am for about four or five years, you don't know, In this car it's full time four wheel drive, it doesn't mess around, it's much happier on and off the track with one wheel off.

It connects like you can't, it's hard to describe except I go back to the idiot model three Tesla that has all-wheel drive, like I said, an 86 RS200, that's the car that's currently moving. I asked one of my car mates if he could. Get rid of all the cars in his collection, what would he do? And he said he would keep a gt350r in my pocket. You need a gun or something. Were you looking for a knife? Oh, there we go, well, I asked a guy, a current guy, what car, yeah. He could take his

entire

collection and he didn't even know he had one of these.

He said he would buy a GT350R. I found a used one. I want to sell it intermittently because I have a certain amount of my collection that I have. He would turn me around because I just like driving them for a while and then once they come back there is nothing like this car. I'm not a big fan of Ford interiors, sometimes this falls into that group as soon as you drive it. It requires your attention and a flat and rude crank engine, American version of a Ferrari engine, the sound is like no other sound, you enter at 5500 rpm and you are left with another like 3000 rpm, there is nothing to do with the feeling of this engine .

This is an amazing car just for that reason I've kept it and I keep it up and I drive it quite a bit and it's cool to look at another one of these it's like a ch

allen

ge and you know oh oh man. Me, the poor thing, with all the cars, it was difficult to get a GT before GT, this was the big problem, so I like ch

allen

ges. I said, oh yeah, well, let me try it. I used to race for Ford, they were good. at Stanford and I never would have made it to Stanford because I never got an A in any kind of class and then I said I passed through the

entire

term.

I couldn't believe the amount of paperwork to get on the list to have them. "To agree to buy a car that they wouldn't even tell you how much it costs. In the future, I'm confused about that in its element. I've never driven a more fantastic car. There's no room there, you two men." We're in each other's laps there's no cell phone slot there's no coffee you can't go anywhere the doors open it attracts too much attention I can't give it to a valet I took my little one to one of the farmers markets They both looked at each other and They said, What are we doing?

Where are we going to put something? I guess we have to eat all this stuff. It's the most amazing looking car from any angle I've ever seen. Ford drilled it. There is another company called Ferrari that did it. This for a while so they added another bug where they're comfortable inside and there's good leather and they've been making this new Ford on this. This is a race car for the street. It's like having that secretarial horse running around. around a small kennel there are only so many things you can do with this thing, I mean I have shown my little one and my wife in little moments on a clear Mulholland day, no one gets in the way, what this thing can do naturally, I have never seen another car. do it, it sticks to the road, I had a Carrera gt, a porsche, I didn't like that car, I think the wheelbase is too short, I think it's a dangerous car and God bless Paul Walker who died because of it, I think that car is coming out.

By the way, I don't feel very uncomfortable driving that car and I sold it to buy it. I don't have that feeling of letting another of my purchases go again. I am new at this. This was not new. There are many, many. years ago this is the original cobra but it has an asterisk i don't like the word bud it has an asterisk originally it was baby blue or bird egg blue with white wall tires and wire wheels that's why they kept shoeing me away from this building we should go to lunch just before the planes take off, so I found this cobra, it's the king cobra, it has an asterisk because there is a dragster company in England that says they have the right body, this body didn't turn up. that chassis, the cobra organization said they gave me documentation that said all the numbers match and they said many times these aluminum bodies were repaired anyway, which said it's almost like my friend bruce kennepa who modifies classic cars to make them even better. if you updated anything even from those days this was updated in 88 or something like 89 which is all i would have done correct wheels natural flares all aluminum put webers on the engine took the bait white inner exhaust , black on a roll bar, it's a fabulous car I don't like 427's, I love it, this is exactly the car I would have made if I used a new one, that's why I have it.

You do not know? It's not light blue 289, something soft. pedaled cobra that it was in its time, but I think every time I ride it my wife doesn't like me riding sports bikes, I love sports bikes, so they could kill you with that if you don't think this is dangerous, this It's made of paper thin aluminum and you sit down, you're almost halfway out the whole time if you get hit in this you're done, that roll bar is just going to keep me in the seat so they can have the corner. somewhere to put me in a box, I'm driving this car and people look at it and they come right up to you and I know this is actually a luxury that I love, I think it's safer in a sport, thank you all for watching , be safe. and hit the like button and subscribe
