## Summary

Michigan television broadcaster Kevin Adell’s collection of more than 100 cars, including vehicles associated with Hollywood films, faces an uncertain future after he filed for bankruptcy. The filing came after a court ordered him to pay $62.2 million to pastor George Bloomer, who won a race discrimination case against him.

Adell plans to sell the 1949 Buick Roadmaster used in *Rain Man*, which previously belonged to Dustin Hoffman and sold for $335,000 in 2022. Court filings also list cars such as a Lamborghini Aventador valued at more than $1.3 million, a *Ferris Bueller’s Day Off* replica Ferrari and the *Dukes of Hazzard* General Lee. Adell proposed a monthly budget of about $279,770, including more than $18,000 for vehicle costs and around $70,000 for rent and mortgage payments.
