About Me

AJ Gerstenhaber AJ is a long-time resident of Austin, Texas with a highly generalist love of all things automotive and obscure. Quietly trying to follow his dreams, he hasn't quit his day job yet but eventually hopes to write about, and help people buy and sell obscure cars full time. He is a corgi enthusiast, a self-proclaimed ATSUV expert, and the 4Runner he's sitting on only runs about a third of the time.

Business Inquiries

Buying and selling cars privately is my passion. If you want a Craigslist expert in your corner while selling your car or trying to locate something special, shoot me an email.
