Great story, but woulda thought the three would have been valued higher.

I saw a fully restored Buggati at the Ford Museum in Detroit. Really cool car.

I grew up in northern Michigan and back in the 1950's there was a guy us kids called the Hermit. Nobody knew anything about him other than the fact he drove an old Rolls Royce but lived in a tar papered house on the south side of downtown. One day his house caught fire and burned to the ground as did his Rolls Royce that was parked next to it........

He then moved into a home that rented out rooms to indigents such as him...........

By the way the notion that that is a “million dollar collection” is laughable. The Type 57 alone will go for well over a million.

I strip away the old debris
That hides a shining car
A brilliant red Barchetta
From a better vanished time
I fire up the willing engine
Responding with a roar
Tires spitting gravel
I commit my weekly crime

About 45 years ago, when I was a first termer in the Air Force making $130 a month I had a chance to buy two Thunderbirds, a 1956 and a 1957, for $1,000. A friend of mine had inherited them from his grandfather. The cars were up on blocks in a barn on the old man’s farm. At that time a thousand bucks might as well have been a million for me, way out of reach. Sure wish I had had the cash, though.

There was an account similar to this where a guy hoarded numerous Stutz automobiles somewhere in the Midwest about 15 years ago.
