A vintage Chevy Impala is available as part of the collection

There is a very old-fashioned 1932 Ford Model 18, as well as a kitted out tour bus.

For the more sporty, there’s even a 2005-edition Ford GT supercar in bright red.

The stunning cars have been made available by auctioneers Hagerty Marketplace.

Foreman admitted: “I have been a car collector and enthusiast most of my life, but the time has come for me to share my cars with other like-minded enthusiasts.

“Being able to offer them to the more than million-strong Hagerty audience is the best way to ensure they get the attention they deserve.”

SunSport let’s you take a peak through some of what is on offer.

1959 Chevrolet Impala Tri-Power Convertible

With an apparent 60,000 miles on the clock, George’s classic Chevy is picking up plenty of admirers.

Like most of the collection, there’s no reserve price – with current bidding at around the £120,000 mark.

It is finished in black over red vinyl upholstery with tri-tone cloth seat inserts.

The 14 inch steel wheels wearing spinner covers and mounted with Coker Classic wide whitewall tires are a thing a of beauty.

1932 Ford Model 18 Deluxe Coupe

George’s collection begins with classic motors from the 1930s.

The pick of them is the staggering Ford Model 18, that’s already drawn bids at around £52,000.

It is a car famously ingrained in American pop culture as one of the original hot rods.

It’s a collector’s item, not to be driven, which explains why it has only travelled 819 miles.

1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray “Split-Window” Fuelie Coupe

Corvettes are a staple of Hollywood films from yesteryear.

The Sting Ray is as classic and classy as it gets, often referred to as the “Father of the Corvette.”

It’s no wonder the bidding stands at around £100,000.

This motor is powered by a 327 cu-in, 360 horsepower V8 engine with Rochester Ramjet mechanical fuel injection.

1987 Ferrari Testarossa

In the 1980s, the Testarossa was the best Ferrari you could own.

It helped that it was driven by the coolest detectives of the era, Crockett and Tubbs in cult TV favourite Miami Vice.

It was one of just 1,008 Testarossa’s produced in 1987.

George bought it in 1992, and it has done just 3,400 miles.

Incredibly, George owned his own top-of-the-range tour bus that boasted it’s own king-size bed.

Needless to say, bidders are queuing up for this, with it currently around the £90,000 mark.

2002 Ferrari 360 Spider Six-Speed

How George squeezed his giant frame into a Ferrari, is a mystery.

Bearing in mind, his 360 Spider only has 1,600 miles on the clock – the answer there might be not that many times.

It is powered by a 3.6 litre V8 engine, and capable of reaching a top speed of 180 mph.

The bidding is at £112,000.
