The Automotive Dream “One man and his dream had not simply left the world with an engine and four wheels; Henry Ford and his Model T had influenced people's everyday lives - where they lived, how they spent their leisure time, even how they viewed themselves.” - Gary...

Your New Source for Old Car Content
For those of you in the know, you’ve been hearing about this mysterious, world-famous car collection for a while now. For those of you who haven’t heard about us before, we want to introduce you to the Demers Car Collection. The Demers Car Collection was built over three generations of hard working and dedicated men that all shared one (mad) dream: Getting and preserving some of the world’s most exceptional cars. The result is uncommon. A small town in Canada, a region better known for maple syrup and hockey, housing hundreds of historically significant cars. We’ve been working to bring it to the public and today is the day that we start!
What Cars Exactly?
Loads of Jaguars and Cadillacs that’s for sure! These reflect the owners’ personal preferences. Loads of other car makes too! The Demers brothers, who are the current owners of the collection, have spent their lives looking for and acquiring exceptional cars, not specializing in one category. The outcome is an eclectic collection of European and American cars from all eras of automobile production. The oldests models are over a century old and the newest ones you can still see roaming the streets all around the world. Here you can find supercars mingled with the Classics and Bronze Era cars. What they all have in common is their significance for one reason or another. Some are innovative, some have revolutionary style, some have historical importance, and others are just so good to look at!
Ok So, What’s Currus Dreems?
Until today, the collection was strictly closed to the public. Only a lucky few have had the chance to come for a visit. The Demers family has also been extremely private and would like to remain that way. That said, the Demers brothers are also keenly aware of the importance of the world heritage that they possess. They see themselves as custodians of a part of humankind’s history. It is a massive loss to keep this knowledge and heritage hidden forever. Here comes Currus Dreems. Currus Dreems is our way to share with the public the immense wealth that this collection represents. We will do our best to share with you the Demers Car Collection, one car or topic at a time. With Currus Dreems, we have found a way to both protect the cars for generations to come and to share the love for antique cars with you.
What Now?
You can follow us here, on the weekly blog, where we will alternate content about specific cars in the collection and general topics from the automotive field. You can also follow us on socials (Facebook, Instagram and TikTok). We’ll do our best to give you a closer look at the cars. Subscribe to our newsletter to keep up to date with what we do with Currus Dreems. When tickets for a semi-private visit become available, they’ll first be announced in the newsletter, so subscribe if you don’t want to miss out! You can also contact us if you have any information about old cars that you would like to share with us. The recording of history is very challenging so we are happy to make corrections to any inconsistencies you could find in our blogs, or add new information if it becomes available! The first car we want to share with you is a splendid Delahaye Type 135, the blog is already out, go read it!
