The Cultivated Collector

enjoy the ride!


Joe Limongelli and Chris McGregor, two avid car collectors, put their Ford GT and their own endurance to the test as they set out to take a trip that had never been attempted before in such a car.
This book follows Joey and Chris as they plan, prepare and execute a very unique adventure, stopping along the way to invite friends and fans to take part in the celebration of their journey. In the end, the duo would put more miles on their car in 31 days of travel than most Ford GTs see in a lifetime.
Enjoying life and making new friends along the way is truly the story to be told – doing so in a Ford GT, is just a bonus.
