He purchased his first car at the age of 15, which was a 1926 Chrysler, for fifteen dollars. More than 60 years later, this car, as well as nearly 30 additional cars are in his possession in what he refers to as The Cave, an extensive garage on his property.

Because of his knowledge, he helped advise authors on the identification of period automobiles.

As reported by CruiseNewsOnline.com, "A century old 1908 Buick Model G, owned by St. Augustine Cruisers (SAC) members Bob and Jinny Quackenbush, was certainly among the many memorable vehicles at the show. Their ancient Buick has a two-cylinder engine producing 22hp at 1,200 RPM, and was one of 219 built in 1908 with a price tag of $1,150. There were between 150 and 160 younger vintage and classic automobiles on display, with 41 separate classes of competition."
