  11. The collection was gathered by a man who was a Chevrolet dealer for more than 30 years.

    He died in 1992; that's why the tires are flat.

    It's good to know they're still out there. It sucks to know he has them all.

  17. Each was started at least every two weeks while the owner was alive, and the pre-war cars routinely appeared in parades, but his survivors just didn't keep the flame going.

    That completely original 29 A Roadster has a 30-31 Steering wheel and column in it....not quite original, an older non-authentic restoration perhaps.

    Close the frickin door, I have seen enough.
     
  21. Sorry, that was my assumption based on appearance; I plead guilty to not being thoroughly conversant on Model As and other pre-war vehicles.

    I'm sure you're correct, but the inauthenticity doesn't detract from the eye appeal of the old doll.

    There is a rich guy here who has 85 nice running cars in a building.
    He has deprived 85 people from owning nice old cars and has prevented everyone in this city from seeing these cars being driven.

    He is rich because his corporation changed names to avoid paying $10 million in bank loans.

    YOU, the taxpayer, paid off his debt thru your taxes.
     
  27. I hate corporations and greedy mother$#@&@#%. The time capsule of vintage cars makes me feel better though....
