I'm guessing Heartbeat City bought the stuff. The buyer would need to be in the business to deal with all those parts. Dealing with all that stuff would mean a life change for someone not already in the business.

Interesting observation, Rick. I know I was surprised when I looked at the list of engines and saw lots of truck motors. Its not as though everything was rare and desirable.

Stephano,
What it was worth and what I would have been willing to pay are two different things. If you were a Corvette collector, you would have been in heaven. I was just hoping for more Chevelle and Camaro stuff then there was. Much of the parts were also later release items and not all that valuable. The engines for the most part were also not H/P and as was stated were mostly truck blocks. Still very cool collection and Larry was a super guy and very accomadation. I have a local friend who likely has a larger collection mostly comprised of Chevelle and Camaro parts. Thats what gets my heart pumping.
Rick

Exactly alot of the stuff was replacement parts with later date codes... however the early big brake Vettes and parts would be worth a fortune to some guys.
