I haven't seen this posted but I had to share this with the fellow gearheads on TD

here is one of the youtube vids i ran across
LINK

the worth of the collection is estimated to be north of $500 million

the collection includes over 40 vintage Corvettes including 3 1953's and a 1967 L88 convertible worth over $1mm

also in the collection is 4 (of the 8 produced) '69 Trans Am convertibles

quote:

One of the most comprehensive muscle car collections in the world is hidden in Salem, Oregon.

The Brothers Collection includes more than 600 cars.

Some 355, including muscle cars and exotic sports cars, are on display in a 117,000-square-foot warehouse turned museum that is not open to the public.

Only private tours can view the collection. The location and the identities of the owners are a closely-held secret.


quote:

Here's a peek at just a few of the cars in the collection:

A 1970 Chevelle SS LS6 454 with 34.2 original miles.
Four 1969 Pontiac Trans Am convertibles — out of eight produced.
A 1966 Shelby Mustang GT350, one of four built that year.
Forty Corvettes, including three from 1953, the model's first year.
A 1959 Ferrari 250 GT LWB California Spyder worth about $8 million.

Internal combustion engines. No thanks…

Edit: It was an attempt at a joke. But the responses and many downvotes are actually comforting!

Does the rumble from the exhaust of a muscle car tickle your vagina to much?

I wonder what kind of maintenance they perform. I assume all are in working order.

So...not open to the public, they don't drive them. The owner probably never even goes in the garage. Money cover up! I don't get it. What's the purpose of having a collection like that. fricking rich people.

Thanks for sharing. Hmm….but will today’s EV roll outs be as awe inspiring 70 years later too?
