Did you expect anything less?


Thanks to all the lockdowns, the Petersen Automotive Museum has really stepped up its YouTube channel, which has come to include celebrity garage tours. For the tour of Tim Allen’s car collection, which is housed in a good-sized warehouse, they had to release two videos. Considering he’s one of the few celebrities who rivals Jay Leno when it comes to obsessive automobile collecting, that shouldn’t be a surprise to those in the know.

The average person probably isn’t too aware of Tim Allen’s automotive collection since he’s not flashing it around on MSNBC like Leno. That makes this tour all the more interesting because we feel like we’re getting a sneak peek at something usually not on display. Helping promote that feeling is the amazing array of cars and automotive memorabilia kept in the warehouse.

However, there are plenty of classics in Allen’s collection. One example is his wife’s immaculate 1972 Ford Bronco, a vintage off-roader which will impress many. We also learn the man is a big fan of Karmann Ghias, the Volkswagen many have sadly forgotten existed. Other classics housed in the collection include a Volvo P1800, Chevy 409 Bubble Top, Ferrari 330 GTC, Pontiac GTO Ram Air 4, Shelby Cobra, Shelby GT350H, Jaguar E-Type, and even a Studebaker Sleeper Cab. In other words, Tim Allen’s automotive tastes are pretty eclectic, although they don’t seem to include anything Asian.
