Brass era collectables? 

 

Picture this – in the Los Angeles area – Otis Chandler’s “Museum of Transportation and Wildlife” https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=pictures+of+otis+chandler+museum  which was sold off (included a Porsche 959 – on display while Bill Gates 959 moldered on the docks.  Big Money didn’t move DOT.  Of course now 959’s are legal with certain modifications.)  I judged Otis’s 959 at a concours.  I didn’t know what the hell I was doing – but it was clean and original.  Peter Mullen’s collection replaced Otis’ Museum when Otis passed from a hideous dementia/Parkinson’s brain disease.  With 50,000 square feet, Mullen’s Bugatti collection is probably the largest in the world.

 

Or the Nethercutt Collection.  Free admission.  https://www.google.com/search?q=pictures+of+nethercutt+collection&sa=X&biw=1462&bih=747&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&ved=0ahUKEwi5t5eTiNXLAhVB8WMKHZtrBrgQsAQIGw

 

What a place

I guarantee if you have a nice brass era car they're not going to go for cheap either maybe not the millions that the Ferrari are...

In victory you deserve Champagne

In defeat you need it!
