He moved his collection from the old Walmart to a much newer strip mall a few years ago.The collection is now displayed in what was once a large grocery store,remodeled and much nicer than the Walmart.In moving,he downsized his WALMART museum display from just over 300 cars to right around 200 in the Grocery store now.
A friend of mine last worked Rick's museum in early November as security guard.He says Rick still has a LOT of classic cars in a nearby facility too.He owns the strip mall so he does not see Rick closing the museum after this.
He said Rick just finished building a big ass home less than a mile from the museum.He also has a “pole barn” on his house property that houses at least 100 more cars.
This past summer he had a group wanting to buy ALL the cars on display at the museum,he felt their offer was too low so did not sell to them,and is going this route.
