Cars
As a regular driver of the 2018 Ford F-150 Raptor, which he rates 10 out of 10, he sure has added other valuable cars to his collection over time.
The 2018 Ford F-150 Raptor has a market value of $24,900 to $59,000, and consists of a really tall suspension, and is an ideal car for off-road trips.
The next car to make its way to Rick’s collection is the 1966 Imperial Crown Convertible, passed down to him from his father, Richard Benjamin Harrison, when he died in 2018. Depending on the car’s condition, the market value can go up to $29,000 at present.
The 1940 Chevrolet Special Deluxe is Rick Harrison’s favorite car that he has back at his home. He has been working on this car for over 12 years, and the work is still in process.
The 1973 Volkswagon Thing was the car he learned to drive in. His mom taught him all about driving with this car. But, the car got damaged beyond repair, so it could not stay with Harrison for long.
But, he always dreamt of getting another Volkswagon Thing, and the History Channel gave him the VW he wanted, and since then, he has it in his collection.
Besides the aforementioned models, Rick also possesses a ’68 Mustang GT Fastback, a ’47 Power Wagon, ’48 Power Wagon, a ’68 Trump, a ’73 Jeep, and a ’40 Indian Chief.
But, the most honorable mention probably goes to his Black Porsche Panamera with its current market price of $200,000.
Rick Harrison’s passion for cars can be easily seen from the great collections he has with him. As per his recent interview, he has 29 cars in his possession.

Rick Harrison: Career
Before rising to TV fame with the Pawn Stars, Rick had rather mixed life experiences. In 1981, he used to work part-time in his father’s ‘Gold and Silver Coin Shop.’
Five years later, they shifted their shop to Fermont street but sadly lost their lease just after two years.
In 1989, Rick partnered in business with his father and became a Gold and Silver Pawn Shop co-owner in Las Vegas.
Harrison was keen on finding a producer for his reality show involving his pawnshop. He got such an idea for the show after his pawnshop was previously featured on the show ‘Insomniac with Dave Attell’ in 2003.
It took him until 2008 to finally get the production company. Then, finally, ‘Leftfield Pictures,’ in 2008, came with the proposal regarding the show Rick was dreaming of creating, and at last, ‘History Channel’ came forward to air the show.
And at last, the first episode aired on July 19, 2009. The show has aired for over 17 seasons, with 577 episodes in total.
Rick also produced some episodes of Pawn Stars.
