Default Fred Simeone

Most know Fred from his carefully curated collection which will remain for car nuts to see. Fred had a gift as a neurosurgeon and helped many.
An uncommonly kind man.
Godspeed Fred!

Default Dr. Fred

Fred was a good friend of more than 30 yrs, nobody more passionate about cars and their histories. Saddened that we have lost yet another of the great, irreplaceable custodians.

The Simeone Museum is a bucket list item for me. My girlfriend bought me a copy of his book a couple years ago for Christmas and they didn't get it shipped to me before Christmas so they ended up sending me an autographed copy that I'm still reading. His passion for originality was inspiring, rest in peace Sir.
