That's John Staluppi's collection. He's a self-made millionaire and car fanatic who started out as a mechanic at a Chevy dealer. He went on to own several Honda dealerships and branched out into real estate. His collection is in a closed mall that he remodeled into his dream collection building.

You will see him at all the high-end classic auctions, always holding a nasty little poodle named Dillinger that does nothing but yap-yap-yap and nip at people. The dog is an actual bidder complete with it's own credentials.

Really a good guy but the dog has gotta go

Here's his museum:

And here's his newest boat:

While looking for theis car on the link you provided, I found a picture of a "Pink Custom" with a cation ready "Started out as a 39 Ford" saw a similar car a few years ago in Yakima. I believe they said it started out as a 37 Ford.

I posted a bunch of pic's from there a couple of years ago.
They had a stunning red Chrysler Airflow and a beautiful Austin America that had a bunch of pic's posted...as well as the Stude's..
I'll dig them out of the backup hard drive an stuff them back up on Webshots.
Very nice museum, but you have to plan your visit, as it isn't open all the time (or at least it wasn't then)

From the home page:

Cars of Dreams Museum is in need of a tune-up and will be taken off the road for the year of 2011. Unfortunately, we will only be sponsoring Events that have already been scheduled for 2011. But, Cars of Dreams is looking forward to seeing all of you again in 2012.

Sorry, I didn't read that far...
But I was there 6 years ago, so it's good to see some things just don't change

Do you mean Austin Atlantic, Jeff? The America is a ho-hum econobox.
