"Caffeine & Octane Brings The Pure, The Rare, And The Unexpected"

Granted, on the surface, it seems certifiably crazy.

Why would someone get up long before sunrise on a Sunday morning, drive to a closed shopping mall, and wander around the parking lot with thousands of people you don’t know?

This can be explained with two words, Caffeine & Octane.

One of the reasons we sojourn for a handful…

Steve Schmeelk Loves to Buy and Sell Cars

Steve Schmeelk first became fascinated with cars when he was nine-years-old while playing in the dirt.   He has had several careers revolving around cars: including owning a tire store and a limousine company, but none fascinated him as much as driving a MARTA bus for 26 years, his last job before retirement.    

 

Over the last 12 years, he has bought and sold about 20 cars.  Among his favorites are a 1937 Ford slant back, a 1930 Ford coupe, a 1948 Buick 2 door, a 1935 Ford…

A new year, a new us!

I started Kartel in April 2017, and I had huge ambitions. I just didn't know in which direction we'd end up going. What originated as a multimedia entertainment venue turned into a startup, wheeling and dealing (pun intended) in automotive events! I spent way too much up front, going to major events, not selling a thing, and I loved it so much that I simply never gave up.

Here we are,…

Dreaming of a 1939 Oldsmobile

"Christina, my wife of 33 years, and Gateway Classic Cars have made my lifelong dream come true,” says Dean Wasson, a veteran of the Vietnam War and a resident of Peachtree Corners, Georgia. For many years, Dean longed for a 1939 4-door Oldsmobile, so that he could carry extra passengers. (Most street rodders prefer a 2-door,” he says.)

His new car is pearl white with maroon interior and has all of the modern conveniences on it.

“He takes his baby on daily rides to give her…
