This is a partial liquidation of his collection.
My friend Bill, is the restorer and maintainer of this collection and he introduced me to collector Chuck and I had the pleasure of visiting this awesome collection last month while passing through IL. All of these cars are immaculate, I mean if there is such thing as "perfect", these are!!! Bill will sometimes get the comment about these cars being '"over-restored" and his response is "well as much time and money being spent on this restoration I am not going to do over-spray and orange peel!" .
This link is a video of them and in it is a quote of Chuck's that really drove a reality to me, "we are never owners of a car, only care givers for awhile".
