Muscle Car Treasure

[TMF]

I'm not gonna get too much into the story, I'll let you all read it. Check out the August Hot Rod, there's a story in there about a guy who collected muscle car stuff since the 50's and died just recently. In 21 sealed trailers, they found everything from complete cars (Yenko Camaro), to motors, transes, fuel inj, etc. Check it out, it's like the King Tut find of muscle cars. Probably worth millions!

Yep, and the family sold the trailers and their contents to the guy's best friend for approximately $150,000 bucks!

I'm lookin at a pic of the first semi (as they opened it), a 70 LS6 Chevelle and in the truck is an original Vette fuel inj unit and a Muncie 4 speed.

It's amazing how these old men are pack rats of Gm's or any auto manufacture these days. It's nice finding tressure, but I'd wrather share it with all of you.
