Bill Amos has built up a wonderful collection of cars throughout his career as a physician. It doesn’t hurt living on Amelia Island, Florida where in March the area becomes the center of car universe. His philosophy on collecting cars is simple. Don’t buy them as an investment. Buy cars to enjoy and drive them. Bill has some great advisors when it comes to buying cars: Ray Shaffer, Ramsey Potts, and friends Hurley Haywood (pictured with Bill above), Dan Davis, Magnus Walker, and the Ingram Family to name just a few. While he leans toward the Porsche marque you’ll find a few Ferraris and a British car in his collection.

Hello Cecil –
You will need to reach out to Bill Amos directly as he was a guest on the Cars Yeah podcast but doesn’t work here. I will forward your message to Bill via email as I don’t share my guest’s personal contact information without their permission.
Hey Cecil! Can you send me Bill’s email? I’m interested in one of the car’s he owns.
