Re: Greatest Supercar Collection Ever
Unreal collection---
Out of curiosity, what does Kevin do for a living to amass such a collection? I'm not familiar with his history. Dandy Don |

Re: Greatest Supercar Collection Ever
I was always impressed by Patrick McGroder's Factory Muscle collection in Arizona, although now disbanded. Lot's of early-Sixties Factory race cars such as the Schultz & Shriver maroon '63 Z-11, an factory assembled aluminum front end '62 Impala (now Milton's), the George Delorean '63 SD 421 Tempest, and lots of other early-to-mid Sixties Factory race cars. Don Fezell's Pensylvania collection is another neat one with THREE '63 Z-11's. I've always thought that the '62-'65 Factory Drag car era was the peak of factory Hi-Performance involvement from the Big Three automakers: Aluminum & fiberglass body parts, factory crossram and tunnel rams, batteries in the trunk, factory exhaust dumps, radio & heater deletes were almost common place, etc. Not trying to piss off anyone here, but MOST everything after 1965 was a street car.

The '71 Judge 'vert he has once in a time looked like this.
https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/ubbt...h%20flames.jpg It's history here in Sweden is in detail known, I wrote about it in my book. Milton has a '70 Judge vert that also were in Sweden. Jan |
Re: Greatest Supercar Collection Ever
I see one of my old cars there! He called me from the Phil airport after it was certified in about 1995. He was on his way back to the west caost. Two days later, he showed up on my door step and bought the car. It's featured in JM's book also.

Re: Greatest Supercar Collection Ever
Great collections no doubt! There are many other significant collections which are not, in the public eye. You can get to see a sampling of some of those cars at MCACN.

Re: Greatest Supercar Collection Ever
All of those collections are/were awesome, don't forget about Dick Bridges - that 'Row of Red Z's was quite cool. Also, Cliff Ernst - that cover shot on Super Chevy is nice. The one that really got me hooked was Randy Leffingwell's book on Otis Chandler's collection, great book!

Re: Greatest Supercar Collection Ever
Janne, is Milton´s car the Judge GTO 4-speed convertible (242670B113XXX) that at one time was owned by three guys in Stockholm and that was later sold to the USA by a guy on Öland (brokered by Mats B)?

Re: Greatest Supercar Collection Ever
One of my contractor buddies went to a tour at the Marvin window plant and was treated to a show of the private collection of Bob Marvin. I have not been able to find anything on this collection which is apparently quite significant. Anyone know of this?

Re: Greatest Supercar Collection Ever
I heard rumors of it and know of a couple of 1 of 1 nice GM pieces that are in there. There's 1 car that was for sale on this site 3-4 years ago that ended up in there.

Re: Greatest Supercar Collection Ever
The Albaugh collection in central Iowa certainly deserves mention....at least one convertible for every year and model Chevrolet made from 1912-1975 I believe....Corvettes, Camaros, BelAirs, Impalas, Chevelles, etc. Last I knew the collection was up over 140 cars. He has expanded into some rare musclecars with Yenkos, Z16, LS6 El Camino, etc.
Collection is not open to the public except on special ocassions. Very nice facility and an impressive collection. Sold a car to him about a year ago.....still having withdrawals. |
Re: Greatest Supercar Collection Ever
Dick...you had a really nice car.
I occasionally have withdrawls...LOL I wish that Dave C.'s collections was still out here in AZ...it was awesome! |
Re: Greatest Supercar Collection Ever
How do you rate Rick Treworgy's collection?

Re: Greatest Supercar Collection Ever
The Bob McDorman Collection is coming up at Mecum, 150 cars, and claimed to be the world's most complete Corvette collection.
http://www.mecum.com/auctions/consig...TION_ID=OH1110 Here's the text list of the cars: http://www.mecum.com/auctions/consignmen...;consignday=All [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] |
Re: Greatest Supercar Collection Ever
The weather should be nice for the weekend, sunny and in the low 50's.
A guy I've know for a long time who works for McDorman told me that all of the cars are now in running order, and that he is going to sell all but 10 of his collection. He got way buried in his floor plan, so he has to raise capital to keep the business going. No reserve! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] |

Here’s a picture of it from 1982 when I picked it up in New Orleans. What a trip that was I also picked up a 1973 Super Duty 455 ZJ Engine 4-speed code out of 73 RED TA complete from Carb to pan with the deal!!

Although I've seen what's in your garage you're not hurting for goodies haha! |
I sold that 69 Trans Am convertible which was an automatic to Milt in 1986 I still had a four-speed 69 TA convertible in the stable at the time.
As far as the 73 Super Duty 4speed ZJ Motor I was able to help put that back into the original car 20 ( red 73 TA )years later. |
I'd would not have let that convertible T/A get away under any circumstances.
That must have been hard to find in the pre internet days. |
When it comes to hanging on to rare cars family will always come first !!
Actually I found all seven cars (69 TA CONVs ) before 1985 and purchased two of them. Just had to dig everywhere , using resources available And it really helped selling parts |

69 TA Convs
Hi Dave if you’d like to hear some of the stories feel free to call me anytime 716-536-2047 found one of them about 10 miles from my house back in 1979 and purchased it soon after.

Was one of the 7 convertibles located in Yorba Linda, Ca. at any point? Or off of Imperial highway and the 91 Fwy:hmmm:
