Every wonder who is behind the wheel at CarShowSafari.com? Read all about us, family members, friends, designers, journalists, and historians who came together over a love for the automobile and a dedication to preserving and supporting the classic car hobby!
Car Show Safari started as a family company in the kitchen at the Scalera home in New Jersey. In the years since, the team has expanded to include expert reporters and writers, tech guys that know their way around a code, quality control experts, and big-thinker, big-idea dreamers who know that the future of the classic car hobby looks bright. We firmly believe in the power of creative thinking, whether it’s applied to innovative vehicles like the Chevrolet Corvette or startup companies like us. We’re a little bit rag tag, a little bit different, and a little bit unique, but as many great car makers of the last century indicate, weird, creative, and passionate often pave the way for something totally great.

He is restoring a ‘62 Thunderbird convertible, races an ‘06 Mustang GT convertible, and has his eye on fixing up a rust-free ’67 MGB… or maybe a ’59 Triumph TR-3A… Tommy now lives with his wife, Holly, at the beach in Ventura California to be closer to the ocean and to the center of the car hobby!
Ruby

A veteran motorsports writer and speedway public address announcer, Bob has been to more than 100 speedways in the US and Canada covering everything from the local short track to Formula 1 and IndyCar. Bob also has always been a classic car enthusiast, and can be found roaming the aisles at Hershey every October.
