  • What makes the Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 1998 special in Alabama?
  • Why is the Cadillac Sedan DeVille 1956 a symbol of American luxury in Alabama?
  • Why does the Jaguar XK120 1953 draw attention in Alabama?

In the heart of Alabama, an extraordinary story has captured the attention of car fans worldwide. What began as a simple weekend hobby for businessman Greg Rusk turned into a massive collection of over 1300 vehicles. Ranging from American muscle to European elegance and Japanese icons, his farm became an unplanned museum where automotive history sits quietly waiting to be rediscovered.

Among the standouts in the Rusk collection is a golden 1998 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am with only 83,600 kilometers on the clock. Known for its aggressive styling and classic V8 roar, this model represents the peak of late nineties American muscle. For collectors in Alabama, it is not just a car but a time capsule of American performance culture that blends nostalgia with raw power.

The 1956 Cadillac Sedan DeVille in Rusk’s collection is more than a car, it is a piece of Americana. With its long body, commanding chrome details, and plush interior, it reflects the era when Cadillac ruled the luxury market. In Alabama, this model stands as a reminder of postwar prosperity and the dream of cruising down wide open roads in pure comfort.

The 1967 Porsche 911 Coupe remains a legend of German engineering. Simple yet elegant, it combines lightweight construction with precise handling that defined Porsche’s identity for decades. Having this car in the Alabama collection ties the local story to a global legacy, proving that Rusk’s passion was never limited by borders.

Jaguar XK120 1953

Not all of Rusk’s cars are American. The Jaguar XK120 from 1953 showcases British craftsmanship and timeless beauty. With sleek curves and a reputation as one of the fastest cars of its time, it offers a striking contrast to the muscle cars in the collection. For Alabama visitors, the XK120 brings a European flavor that elevates the farm into an international showcase.
