TALES from the JUNKYARD with Jonas Lach and Daniel Harrison
Let us take you inside one of the most bizarre classic car auctions ever: RM Sotheby's JUNKYARD Auction (AKA the Rudi Klein Collection).
For decades, the reclusive Mr. Klein tucked away scores of desirable European sports cars. His Los Angeles salvage yard, "Porche Foreign Auto", was known for harboring hundreds of rare machines behind its walls, many of which had met with an untimely end- smashed seemingly beyond repair. But the decades of dry storage paid off, because most went far beyond their one-time scrap value in what was certainly one of the most unlikely auctions in the history of classic car culture.
In this episode, Jonas Lach of Jonny's Garage and Daniel Harrison of Limit 55 join Maurice to recount their impression of the Junkyard, as well as sharing their personal car stories and how they see the future of the hobby.
