would love to find out the aero cars details, but this green cuda is almost certainly going to be the grail of the mopars

crazy that this is just one of three buildings the collection is stored in

there is a fortune invested in the lifts alone

About halfway into the video, there was a brief glimpse of a red or orange Charger 500.  You can see the grill and drivers fender in the background as the camera was moving by.

Somebody is might be cashing in.  Be interesting to see what it cost to store all these cars, then what they sell for.

I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?

I saw that too... I thought it was red, with a black stripe. Can't see if the door has a hemi emblem though...

An example of how something can be so COOL and so SAD at the same time!

That is an amazing collection of cars! This is a guy who seemed to know exactly which cars to buy and when to buy them! Unfortunately this may turn out to be the worst possible time in modern history to consider selling them off!

Worst time? You mean posting it on April Fools day?  If a hoax, did a pretty good job at it!  (took 50 years to set the joke up -lol)

The "private tour" video is posted.
The blue Superbird in original video is talked about 4-1/2 minutes in (Yellow bird is before that).  It was removed from a barn in a state where you could not drive the car because no front bumper according to the tour guide.  Also, that wasn't primer under the blue paint: it was a white Superbird.

Not sure there is more than one HEMI 500 in there, but there was another 69 Hemi Charger.

A few more of car #311 (based on #311 on the blue masking tape on nose).
With that #43 on the headlight door, someone may know this car.

You dont think that is a c500? Did u see the headlight buckets?

That deck lid does look a little small.  But been a long time since I had a regular "tunnel" Charger.
No screw holes visible on A-pillars; that would have been a good sign.

The deck lid does appear to be for a 500. Headlight buckets not sure. A pillar has screw holes. But appearances aren't everything. To be certain one way or the other requires a VIN.

I was told that the Ex Jack Werst Mr. 5 & 50 SS/EA superbird is in this Collection.

Man... I seem to remember seeing that 43 on the headlight door before.  No one else?
