Assuming that most have no interest in selling their hoard when you first call them, I’m also wondering how open they are to even show you what they have. Is it a challenge just talking yourself in the door?
One of the largest's deals I've ever done was a couple of years ago, 50 cars total, mostly 356's but about a dozen 911/912's thrown in. It took me five years to put together, and once I did everyone was amazed the guy sold anything, he had never sold a car in 30 years. I have a black book of cars and parts stashes all over the country, some I've seen, some I just know about. You just stay on it, like this car in the opening part of the thread. I found it 5 years ago, I was in FL so I thought I should touch base with the guy, you never know, it could have gone my way, it didn't, but it could've.
The 50 car deal, you can see many of them on our poster.
