I got to tour his collection a couple times during the Peach State Chevelle show. There are about 65 to 70 cars in the collection. He sold all his Hemi cars a few years ago when the values went crazy. He has quite a few rare Pontiacs like a few Super Duty cars, 3 or 4 RAIV cars and the only 1992 Trans Am Firehawk convertible ever built. He also has several 1950s factory fuel injected and supercharged cars. There is something special about almost all the cars in the collection. See the links below for some details of the collection. The photobucket link is pictures a friend took during the last time I was there in 2008.

Mockingbird812, yes that car is a survivor with original paint and stripes that have cracked all over except the hood. The hood was repainted in the late 70's early 80's and the hood stripe was replaced at that time. The last time I saw the car it had Corvette rallys all the way around on it. If anyone that goes to look at that car they need to look inside the trunk at the quarter panels and notice the lettering on the inside. I cannot remember if it was done on both sides or just one, but there will be the SYC hood logo arrow in there for some reason or another. Never got a strait answer from Jake before he passed away. The last time Milt sold off most of his collection was when Jake died, and a few of the cars ended up with Kevin Suydam in Washington. Two that Kevin still shows to own are the orange 68 Dana Camaro, and the yellow 69 Baldwin/Motion Camaro. I guess Milt needs some more room.

That 69 Firebird RAIV ragtop has to be the only one in existance. I recall they only made a few hardtops, I have no idea on the ragtop nummbers. That's a rare car...and a black four speed car to boot! DAMN!

I don't remember if the engine is the original or not, I think it may be. There was an article done on it back in 87 or 88 in one of the muscle car magazines and it may have stated it in there.
