Had to pause it & shoot a picture. Granted these cars are finally coming on strong but good to keep seeing hints of them around on TV.

HA. Wayne didn't even breathe on that car, they were walking past the 92 talking about a 62 Maserati. To have it in the shot gets people thinking.

Re: 92 Heritage Vert on Chasing Classic Cars anyone else catch it?

Wayne only looks at some stupid million dollar British or Spagetti cars from pre-1960s. I cant believe his show still runs I couldn't see any red-blooded American interested in anything he has on his show. What a waste of time. Im sure most of us would rather see muscle cars or something we relate to. Ship his a$$ over to Scotland yard for all I care he is a waste of time I could be watching a real car restoration show instead of waiting on his dumb 30 minutes to be over with.

Obviously I watch this show but Wayne doesn't buy all these cars. He usually just is a "hekper" when it's time to sell. I'm sure he will sell anything you have as long as he makes minimum $20k+

Re: 92 Heritage Vert on Chasing Classic Cars anyone else catch it?

I have to say that I have a great respect for Wayne. He is actually a very nice and knowledgeable guy that has a lot of class when it comes to cars. I have personally dealt with him as well as the types of vehicles that he represents as well as their owners. Point is, his TV show might show historical and high end vehicles, but when it comes down to it, he is a car guy just like the rest of us. He also does deal with american muscle at his shop too.

Re: 92 Heritage Vert on Chasing Classic Cars anyone else catch it?

Plus funky ones like BMW isettas, an odd Volvo, quirky golf cart like vehicles.I saw that Camaro a while back, must be re-run season.

Was this the episode that had the Stutz Bear Cat too?

Not that episode. It was brand new. ...season finale. He was chasing his Dad's Model A after he passed away.

Nice guy or not his show blows! I mean it is not very entertaining like some of the other car shows. Even the auctions are stuffy, pricy, boring! I think if he had better producers and writers maybe the show would be better. He is a wealth of knowledge but with no personality, or at least it is not portrayed in his show. That to me is what makes a show work.
He said he could end his car collecting career after he found that Stutz, Well maybe they will end his show!

I have a feeling either Wayne or someone close to him came up with the concept. He is your atypical expert. His personality only comes alive when you have something he wants. He truly has little to no charisma however the cars are the show & whomever the producer is drags out "what's coming up". Wayne only smiles when he meets someone who has a car he wants OR when he makes a big sale.
I only watch to learn a little about some of the cars but he does have a marketable skill to get cars running & sold.

I wonder what Chip Foose would do to a third gen convertible? I like his show (Overhaulin) great workmanship.

Re: 92 Heritage Vert on Chasing Classic Cars anyone else catch it?

That Camaro was for sale at the Bonhams auction at the Greenwich Concours in June 2016. Very low miles. Have a few pics of it, let me see if I can find them:

Wayne has done a lot of good for our car hobby. I've visited his website several times and. He has cool American cars from time to time. It can be very interesting to learn about the other makes and brands of cars too.

Re: 92 Heritage Vert on Chasing Classic Cars anyone else catch it?

Wayne Corrini's show is way better than the typical car show that tends to run one of 3 themes.

1 "Got to get it done yesterday"

2 Personal drama between cast/shop members

3 Blatant "Infomercial" whoring sometimes junk products.
