In the adjoining room are cars for sale like this brand new-like Triumph TR6, other amazing autos everywhere.



My drool marks are probably still on this VW Transporter. I swear it looked better than showroom condition. You can lick the inner fenderwells it is so clean.
I'm still in shock, also in shock from the asking price, I should go and lay down til I feel better.

Even my wife Jane was flipping (sorry honey, no pun intended), and it's not easy to impress her with an old Volkswagen. Ha Ha. Here she is checking out the details.
The Jaguar XKE in front is restored to as-new condition also. Unbelievable!



Cars like this Woody have been used in many Sportsman's Illustraited Swimsuit Issues for years. Also Playboy Magazine has used cars from this collection.
The cars are routinely rented out to studios for film work and are driven on a regular basis to keep them in top condition.
The two Simon brothers do all the restorative work right there in the showroom's shop.



There is also a collection of old wooden radios from early days of AM and Shortwave. Beautiful antiques.
This was a fun collection to visit. I hope you enjoyed the photos.
