Unbelievable. How does one accumulate that many vehicles? It just blows my mind.

Unlimited money and space.

One pic did kind of remind me of my shop's current state of disarray. But with a lot fewer cars.

Coupled with an affliction or two.

Currently, mine would easily qualify for "disaster relief". (I need more space! [ddd)

A lot of neglected never going to get done projects

The article stated that he would buy one, drive it for a short time and then get another.

That Merc does things to me that I can't explain. [ddd

They all need some TLC

Not to speak ill of the dead, but guess I will anyway, the guy had a hoarding problem. A collector would try to take care of stuff, not pile garbage on it. At least they were in a building.

And here I thought this site was a positive place. I didn't think sharing a shop full of cool stuff would bring out negativity.

I didn't take it as negativity but he had some nice cars he obviously neglected! Imagine how much they'd be worth if he had taken care of them! Nice find for sure but I'm sure no offense was meant to you personally!

Snopro, nothing toward you [unless you're the one hoarding like that], it's just a shame that the previous owner didn't keep them up when he parked them. I hate to see anything left to neglect like that, even vehicles that I wouldn't have an interest in.

To tell the truth, it gets tougher as we get older. I have a couple plums in long term storage that I should likely let go of, myself. But, just maybe I will get the chance to pull them out and do something with them before the authorities take my driver's license away. With storage 5 hours from my current home, and a busy life here, it just gets more complicated. If I had a collection like this one, I'm not sure I wouldn't be overwhelmed. Anyway, its sad, but why it happens is a long story, I am sure. All are in new homes now it appears.
