I agree Joe. Actually, collector things aside, I cant stand seeing anything not used for its purpose. Which brings to mind my grandpa.
Vehicle/toy
Nissan 300Z twin turbo- Doesnt drive, garaged.
72' Mustang Mach 1 351C- Doesnt drive, garaged
0'something ski boat, why does an 87 yr old have a ski boat? lol he doesnt ski, also garaged and not used...
95 Aircat airboat with 350 corvette engine, bought custom and new, garaged....
76' Bronco -garaged....
It goes on and on but it drives me and everyone else bonkers.....Nobody is allowed to drive/borrow or use any of it.....Just for looks.

Depends on which garage... There is a 3 bay shop, double deep, then another 2 bay shop, double deep, and then another one for the boats.....And he still has toys outside. Crazy huh? He was a welder/pipefitter and made some really great investments on property and fixing up homes, long before the home improvement craze....

Sheldon, I hope the dig goes okay man! Catch you guys later.
