In this special episode of The Collector Car Podcast, Pixar’s Jay Ward returns—not just as the man behind Cars, but as a guest judge at the Hillsborough Concours d’Elegance, one of the most prestigious collector car events on the West Coast.

Host Greg Stanley chats with Jay about how the Cars franchise continues to bridge the gap between animation and authentic automotive passion. From his work developing iconic characters like Lightning McQueen and Doc Hudson to his personal love of vintage steel, Jay shares how real collector cars helped inspire the Pixar universe—and vice versa.

Plus, we’re joined by Glen Egan, Chairman of the Hillsborough Concours, for a quick interview on what makes this year’s event so special, what cars to watch for, and why Hillsborough continues to be a must-attend celebration of automotive excellence.
