Pretty nice Roddie, thanks for sharing.
Looks like the guy has the alphabet from Austin through Willys, a walk for me from my childhood to a young adult. Impressed with all the Corvettes, especially the fuelie Stingray. Few that I couldn't recognize, just give me a corner of any fifties car and I have it. Still, these always leave me a little sad. So many collectables slowly melting away when they could be in hands of people that would preserve and care for them.
Even caught the back half of a modeled P-40. 6:30 in.

Well, that was a great trip down memory lane! Makes me wonder just what those “collector guys” do for a living to afford to buy and then store all those vehicles! I have watched a good quantity of the show sponsored by Haggardy Insurance co. On the “ barn hunter” finding really cool old muscle cars and hot rods I can only dream about driving!
