Otis Chandler had the most incredible car collection in a museum up in Oxnard.

IIRC he had about 40 original, rare, unmolested hemi-cars and at least 6 of them were convertibles.
He had one of the Porsche 917s seen in the movie Le Mans, he had a 959, a 73 carrera RS, formula one cars, COPO cars, baldwin motion cars, yenko cars, factory light-weights, he had at least one of everything and in most cases more than one.
My favortite was a plumb-crazy purple hemi challenger with white interior and under original 4000 miles on the ODO.

He lost most of it in a de-vorce, and what was left was auctioned off in 2006 after his death, the 50 or so cars and 40 motorcycles were a fraction of what the collection once was still fetched $36 mil even after the ex raped it.

I believe that is where the mullen collection is now.
