I live very close to Ron Prattes warehouse where he displays these treasures. I have never been fortunate enough to actually tour the garage it is on my bucket list. I am a disabled veteran with walking challenges. I have friends that have been allowed to tour the collection and they, like you, were totally amazed. I was curious whether the recession had an bearing on Mr. Prattes ability to collect classics. I see that he has a couple of vehicles listed for sale at the Barrett-Jackson auction Jan 2012. Hopefully just to make room for other acquisitions. Thank's for this blog and the great pictures.

Yes, I am sure you are right. Due note that this article/information and pictures are 3+ years old.

Thanks!
Sorry for the delay in approving your comment, I get a lot of spam comments and just assumed this was, sorry for the mistake
The actual visit took place a couple years ago. The pictures are actually from another family member who was there, I didn’t bring my camera as I was unsure if I would be allowed to take pictures.
Thank you for your comment!

finally, a site that has the facts straight.
i agree completely with you, 3 hours is NOT enough time to look at all of these magnificent cars. i have been there once before and i was completely amazed..i can see from these pictures that he has taken a lot of cars out of there, since i was there.
i just wanted to say nice job on the knowing your facts, and actually knowing how to spell his name, unlike many other sites that think they know what they are talking about.
