An Evening with Wayne Carini!

The California Automobile Museum is proud to announce the revival of our “Evening With” series featuring a sit-down dinner with gourmet food & beverages alongside an automotive celebrity followed by a presentation, and live + silent auctions. 

The star of our event on November 10th was the highly regarded American car enthusiast, master restorer, and television personality, Wayne Carini! Mr. Carini is perhaps most widely recognized as the host of the television show "Chasing Classic Cars,” which follows Carini as he travels across the country in search of rare and valuable automobiles to buy, sell, and restore. His carefully curated automotive collection includes a diverse range of vehicles, from iconic American muscle cars to elegant European sports cars.

Wayne’s zeal for cars began when he was a child, working alongside his father on Duesenbergs, Lincolns, Packards, and Model A Fords. At the age of nine, he enjoyed his first ride in a 1960 Ferrari 250 SWB, and he was bitten by the Ferrari bug.  Automobiles have been his passion and life’s work ever since. He has since been the Grand Marshall and judge at numerous concours events around the world. His current affairs include a new car magazine titled “The Chase,” his first book titled “Affordable Classics,” and an upcoming podcast named “Classic Car Talk.” Wayne is also filming a new show called “The Classic Bid” and “On the Road with Wayne Carini.”
