I've got two 1pm tickets. I'm bringing my friend who hired me 25 years ago to work at his musclecar focused consignment dealership. He's retired now but we're going to go check out the collection:)

I'll be there for 11 AM entry........................

Bob A, Hope you have other Oregon, Washington travel plans and not just
coming for Brothers Only....So much out "here" to see that most East Coast
Mid America folks will never SEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will be there, also with an 11:00AM entry.
At this time it looks like I will have one spare 11AM general admission ticket if anyone is looking; only one. I’m flying into Portland Saturday afternoon and will be driving down to Salem on Sunday morning. Message me if you need the ticket, we can connect Sunday AM in Salem. Mike

I’ll be there!!!

Can’t wait!!

Had one of the most profound automobile viewing experiences of my life yesterday at THE BROTHERS COLLECTION in Salem, OR..................Very very few of the Yenko members will ever trouble them selves or spend the $$ to view this collection..........but for any real classic performance car fans this must be your #1 Bucket list venue.........Many here have been to MCACN, Goodguys, Woodward......You name it.................THE BROTHERS COLLECTION is at another level....The Quality, The Rarity, The Presentaion.........

660 cars inside, and that's only the collection. How many attended the parking lot show?
It's a fight to get viewing privileges to the collection and apparently this show also, but I feel lucky as heck to see the inside show last year.

One heck of a car event!!

I could go to 10 car events and not see half the quality muscle as here at the Brothers!!!

Thanks Bob Ashton and Courtney Hanson for showing me around!!!

Well worth the trip!!! (Even though I’m stuck in Oregon due to an Air Canada strike)

I am using my extra day by visiting All American Classics in Vancouver Washington, 50’s, 60’s, 70’s scrap yard. Talk about going from one end of the scale to the other!!!

I’d rather go to the scrap yard.

Went to the Brothers yesterday. Got there about 8:45 and everything was flawlessly planned. Easy parking, easy to figure out where to be and what to see! What a collection of the most beautifully restored and amazing rare cars you could ever hope to see in one place. OUTSTANDING!!!

My friend and I had a great day trip. 3.5 hours from Seattle to Salem, 4.5 hours back. The show itself was well organized, as alluded to above. Parking and logistics were a breeze. The collection is overwhelming. It’s kind of like an automotive Versailles, just so much that you get a little numb. The Shelby Cobra display was awesome and well done with storyboards and easy identification signs on each car. I expected the Corvette display but was surprised by the line of six L88’s. I was expecting the line of half the Trans Am ragtop population, but it’s still staggering to see. The lines of Hemi cars with Hemi E Body ragtops on tilted pedestals were impressive as well. I recognized many significant cars that I’ve tracked in the past, and as a Hipo Ford fan, the row of R code Galaxies and Fairlanes was quite a thing to see. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen pairs of ‘65, ‘66, and ‘67 R code Galaxies in the same place before.

Charley’s “zany” fingerprints are everywhere.

An homage to Chrysler quality control? G60-15 back and F60-15 front on the passenger side, G60-15 front and F60-15 back on the driver’s side, lol.

Though I’m a Shelby Cobra and Mustang nerd, a big block FE Ford fan, and a Pontiac GTO/Trans Am enthusiast, the one car that just tickled me when I saw it was this Mauve Hemi ‘66 Belvedere convertible. My pick of the show:).

This event is a bucket list item for my brother and I.

LOL...I have never to read that story board.

The white 1967 Camaro Z/28 was sold new at Holz Chevrolet here in WI. Restored in the late '80s by the team at CPX when Doug Martz owned it.

Has an odd option, Tri-volume horns,

Charley Hutton's Color Studio in Nampa Id. restored it again.

Held up ok for 34 years.

Same as ZL-1 #4; also done in lacquer. Dennis Albaugh had it re-done it a few years ago.

It was an amazing and well run event. Thanks to The Brothers and especially Doug and Kaylie who were behind the scenes making it a smooth and well organized event.

Great to hear you enjoyed the signage. I had the honor of writing those for The Brothers several years ago, and really enjoyed doing it. (over 300 of them!)

Was great catching up with some of you!
