"Motoring Investments" In San Diego, CA?

Anyone have any knowledge of this place? I did a thorough search of the forum but didn't find a thing.

He seems to have some nice cars listed.

Thanks for any help,

Ben

I know nothing about this company, but treating any motor vehicle as an investment is just plain silly...the only worse money pit would be a boat. I was told by my grandpa that "if it has tits or tires it's gonna cost ya."

Actually, swimming pools are worse than boats.

Motoring Investments advertises in Hemmings and online places. That web site is excellent IMO - I poked around the restoration pages.

I know of them from the W113 forum and Brian (Motoring Investments) has an outstanding reputation for high end restorations! Brian is also a very nice and honest person to deal with, along with having a sincere interest in vintage cars.

I liked reading about restoration of the bathtub porsche 356c, an excellent websight. But for investment, i dunno.... maybe tax write-off for people who must spend money or get clobbered in taxes for having too much in the bank. Could probly launder alot of dough restoring old cars.
