Who is Dennis Collins From Fast N’ Loud?
Dennis Collins is an American Businessman, a famous dealer in the automotive industry and a media personality, who is best known for his appearances on the hit reality show Fast N’ Loud shown on Discovery channel.
Collins is the owner of Collins Bros Jeep(1984), a dealership that specializes on restoring, refurbishing and customizing Jeep CJ’s and Wranglers. He’s not only one of the biggest and knowledgeable car dealers on the planet, but he’s also a proud owner of some of the rarest and most coveted vintage cars.
Born on January 28, 1965, in Wylie, Texas, Collins graduated with a degree in Economics and Finance, from the University of Texas.
Dennis Collins is a record breaker as an avid car collector, including the historic Cannonball time, a coast-to-coast nonstop trip from New York to Los Angeles with his close friend and head of Gas Monkey Garage in a 1999 Ferrari 550 Maranello.
Collin negotiated a deal to acquire the 1958 Austin-Healey, a car he said he’s been chasing for over 25 years in an interview with Hooniverse. He disclosed that he constantly called up the owner each year until they retired and finally negotiated a deal. With some body work on it, the car, dubbed “Goldie,” turned into a total beauty to win the Kuwait Concours d’Elegance award for Best Restored Car. He is also reputed as the owner of the first production model of the Nash-Healy built in 1950.
If there’s one thing Dennis Collins is known for, it’s his transparency in showing off his prized collections, one of which is a white 2013 Lamborghini Super Trofeo which is reportedly one in 40 that are in existence. Collins also believes he’s the only private owner of the model and is legally free to drive it.
As obsessed as Collins is, it’s no surprise that he has collected and sold more than 500 Healeys collections in his three decades of automotive business. While these beauties come in and go out of his dealership, there are some cars Collins considers unforgettable like the Super Boss, the most expensive Mustang in the world. For him, the rareness of the Super Boss makes it more significant than the monetary value. It was established that the car toured Vietnam during the war. He ended up selling it for a whopping $116,000 at the Barrett-Jackson auction.
Before then, he became a social media sensation for owning Fox Body Mustangs before selling them off at the auction. The videos showing off the cars at the time gained around 3 million views.
Collins perfectly blended his passion into commerce, a representation of the saying: “do what you love and you would never have to work a day in your life.”
