To All The Cars I've Loved Before: Your First Car Tells The Story
Remember your first car? That freedom with the windows down, your favorite song playing, and your best friends laughing in the backseat? Every car tells a story—and those automotive stories reveal who we really are.
Welcome to our podcast, To All The Cars I've Loved Before, where we celebrate automotive nostalgia through personal car stories from everyday car enthusiasts, father-son restoration teams, father-daughter automotive adventurers, and families passing down car culture across generations. From first car stories and forgotten beaters to vintage car dreams and car restoration projects, we explore automotive memories through the vehicles that shaped our lives.
What Makes Us Different: We hold nothing back except politics, new car reviews, and focusing only on celebrities. This isn't another industry podcast—it's about automotive history told through YOUR experiences. Whether it's your first ride, learning to drive, or the car that changed everything, we share your automotive stories with classic car collectors, restoration junkies, and everyday drivers. Because automotive stories are life stories.
What You’ll Hear: Real people sharing real automotive memories—from father-daughter DeLorean projects to first-generation immigrants learning American car culture through a beat-up sedan. We feature car enthusiasts who’ve restored classic cars, students training in car restoration, and anyone with a first car story worth telling. Every episode proves your automotive history is your personal history.
Your Hosts: Doug and Christian—two friends who believe the best automotive stories come from everyday people, not just collectors and experts. We’ve loved everything from project cars to dream machines, and we know that vintage car memories and personal car stories connect us all.
Perfect for: Road trips, commutes, or anyone who still remembers that feeling of freedom—windows down, music up, going nowhere in particular but loving every minute.
