Shit !!! I have 3 unfinished projects……that Lincoln coupe was spectacular…..no bidding for me

 

"He who dies with the most toys, wins" We have a winner. That is an unbelievable collection.

 

Just an amazing collection

 

no way!...is this a joke? ...WOW!

 

We know who was buying up everything it seems now... haha... Man I may have to make the ride up for this one... Some of those are early auctions during the week, so maybe money will be low... May be some good deals here for sure.

 

Holy cow.
My scrolling finger is tired.
Glad I didn't have to walk.

 

I'll take any of the 'racers'.

 

After seeing some of the recent posts on the hoards of cars being crushed it’s nice to see all that awesome iron being saved and now becoming available for others to enjoy.

 

I gave up before I got to the bottom, maybe it’s because I ran out of money at the first photo.lol

 

38 coupe's ! What a hog

 

Maybe one of the 35's for me..

 

Money has no value, unless it's spent!
Truly an amazing collection !
"The rich are very different than you and I, they have money"

 

Meh...big collection of mostly belly button cars.

 

That’s an insane collection !!!!

Im happy they are coming out back into circulation

 

I'm gonna cut my herd (2). Must not be healthy to have so many.

 

Wow, I never seen so many nice 34 Fords.

 

Dang what a collection, I think I have screen shots saved of most of the vintage racers photos and will probably save more.

 

Fuuuuuuudge

 

I can't look!

 

WTF I counted about 120 '33-'34 Fords...no wonder I was never able to find one...he had them all

 

And everyone says there aren’t any left out there…

 

Not counting the racers, I think I counted there were like 12 non-Ford product vehicles listed. Those must have been moments of weakness, or couldn't find the Ford of the day?

 

Turning all those loose will dilute the market, I would think.

 

That 61 Sprint does it for me. And I got a couple 'historical documents' and a shortie glide to make it 'practical'....

 

that Buick race car is an amazing piece of work

 

Imagine trying to refill those sheds .. Some great cars, including those among the barn finds . I spotted a few RHD models too. The 36 3 window barn find and the red 35 cabriolet being two such examples . Unfortunately the £ to $ exchange isnt in favour of the £ right now .. Not that any of that collection would be even close to my pay scale LOL.. He must have had a lot of fun collecting and owning those . cars .. What did Rhett Butler do for a living ?
