Incredible collection ! The volume and evident condition of all the cars is to be hugely appreciated.
At 92, I’ve seen and savored a great many of these – my first car, at 13, was a ’27 Model T Coupe, already known as a Tin Lizzie ! I can still crank and drive one! It was race-equipped with Frontenac, Bosch and Ruxtell goodies!
But with so many cars, packed in so tightly, it is hard to really examine each, however. The real benefit seems more to be preserving the great mass of cars for the future.
Grouping the cars by quality would be an advantage as well. Hispano Suiza with Rolls Royce, Mercedes with Bugatti and so on.
Showing a “stream” of same-brand cars, old to new, would be an interesting design study.
In the same vein, a broad display of engine types would be fascinating. Two’s, three’s, fours, sixes, eight’s, twelves ! ! ! !
Thanks-a-million for your video, and thanks-the-same to LeMay for preserving these vehicles out of the Trash-Stream ! ! !

Mr LeMay is amazing. He has accomplished the impossible. I remember seeing the Harrah (spelling) museum in Reno in the 70s. It was so amazing, but does not hold a candle to what Mr LeMay has created.
My LeMay smile tells a lot, he is a happy man and well deserves it.
Thank you Mr LeMay for showing us what one man can accomplish.

I saw this museum about 10 years ago and loved it. The collection appears from the video and LeMay’s description to have grown, and continues to do so. I see another trip back to see more in my travels.
