    I saw that in the paper this morning...... wonder if he's gonna have any "Umbrella Girls" there?

    Sounds like he needs to sell off a part of his collection to cover bills...... sad day!

    The last auction he got $2 million for his old automotive signs and things.

    I could not believe the number of first off the line cars he has there. Also that he was one year away from having an example from every year. I read that they thought they would be short a few years and the missing year car was sold in the past 18 months.

    The read deals will be the 80-00 cars buy low now sell high in a couple decades :)

    haha the 75 only got me because that is when I was born and orange is my favorite color. For me the dream vette would be a red split window. Growing up my neighbor's son did a frame off restoration in their garage. I remember watching that car become a pile of parts and then return to a spotless car. Man did that car sound incredible when he was done.

    Yea I will be very interested to see what that car brings in, something about a design that goes away after 1 year makes for crazy high prices.
