Here is an interesting article about a treasure trove of classic cars from a family estate going up for auction in Nebraska from as early as 1958 to as late as 1984, most with fewer than 10 miles on them:

It's times like these it would be a wonderful thing to have a lot of discretionary income, AND a really BIG garage!

Thanks Tinkerbell. Having a 1930 Model A roadster and 64 Impala convertible, and looking the video, it is every collectors dream and fantasy finding such a treasure trove. It is hard to imagine that these cars, with little to no mileage, are still stashed away out there. I probably will not sleep tonight.
Appreciate sharing with us. Have a good weekend.

My first car was a 61 Impala (but not a convertible

). Up until about 3 years ago, we had a convertible 69 Firebird 400.
It would be a collector's dream to stumble upon a find like this... certainly mine, anyway.

My Dad had a 60 Corvette in great shape that would have been mine, except it was stolen from a local commuter railroad station and never recovered. As A kid I wondered how he was able to afford a car like that. Eventually I found out his traded in his previous car - a 56 MG! (I'd still rather have the 'vette myself.)
