Pamela L. Linden
Controller
It was love at first sight in 1993 when Steve bought Pam a 1970 Karmann Ghia convertible, having it meticulously restored to its original beauty during their courtship. Being married to someone with motor oil in his veins, Pam developed a deep respect for those passionate about the collector vehicle hobby. Over 30 years, she spent countless hours at car shows and auto flea markets by Steve’s side, listening as he enthusiastically shared his knowledge and stories with fellow hobbyists and collectors.
Our Founder
Internationally renowned specialized vehicle expert Steve Linden built this company on a foundation of honesty, authenticity, and passion. From a young age, Steve’s dedication to the world of classic and unique vehicles earned him widespread respect in the industry. His work spanned appraisals, inspections, consulting, restoration management, expert witness services, and exports.
We are deeply saddened by Steve’s passing in April of 2023. His passion, knowledge, and commitment to the field continues to be the foundation of our guiding vision.
