Old Car Heaven

Went to lunch with a friend today. Afterward, we went to a mutual friends workplace. His current jig is taking care of a local businessman's car collections. Needless to say I was in old car heaven.


First and foremost was the PRISTINE 1971 W30 442 convert. Red with white top and IMMACULATE. All numbers matching and all documented.


He also had (to mention a few) a 1970 GSX 455 Stage 1, a 1970 LS6 454 Chevelle convertible, an LS6 454 Chevelle hardtop, a 1968 Mustang Shelby Convert, a 1964 GTO tri power with a/c, ps, pdb, 1970 mint original GTO,
1967 427 vette, 1964 Corvette roadster, 1967 427 vette with 30k miles and original paint, among many others.

I was blown away at the quality of the cars not to mention the rarity of some.




The coolest was he had the W30, the GSX and the LS6 Chevelles lined up together. Basically the pinnacle (in my opinion) of early 70's GM muscle cars.


The owner has this collection and periodically sells some and adds others. They are taking 5 vehicles to Mecum in Kissimmee soon.


Just thought I'd share.


Unfortunately I didn't get any photos, Sorry..




But, here is a link to his website. You can click on the manufacturer and see the cars of each brand he has.

Very nice cars, but it's funny to see that they installed the notched valve covers the wrong way round and that on a 130k car
