One of the Best Collections in the World.

I love the 1/4 Ramp Displays.

[enio45]

Amazing collection, love the display concepts

[Luvchevs]

Charlie,

UNREAL!!!
UNBELIEVABLE ACTUALLY!!!
I dream of owning just one of those cars!
Can you give us a hint of the location?

Dave

[carnut4life]

That's going to be an amazing museum, it looks like every car there is a dream car to me! I'll be making a special trip out west just to see this collection.

[Ryan1969Chevelle]

I am going to this museum as soon as it open!!!

Charley, is there an approximate open date? 2019??

[Charley Lillard]

So that's where that Body by FISHER carriage sign went.
If you were paying attention you would have seen two of those in the pic.

[Charley Lillard]

Hopefully be open this year and it is in Salem Oregon.

[tunes]

Pretty impressive collection and display. I saw many examples of cars I can only dream of owning. Thanks for the preview.

[olredalert]

----WOW just WOW!!!!……..Bill S

[Tenney]

Action-packed!!

[Billohio]

Thank you for sharing!

[southernfriedcj]

Hopefully be open this year and it is in Salem Oregon.

Those '69 Trans Ams are killing me.

How good is their security? Asking for a friend.

[muscle_collector]

is this your friend that wants to know

[BCreekDave]

Definitely a destination for any muscle car era car lover!
Been watching these cars on YouTube for awhile now and was waiting for the museum to happen. Better than I imagined.

[McCune]

4 of the 8 69 vert TAs

[L78M22Rag]

Thanks for posting this Charley. Looks like a bucket list destination for me, and it’s relatively close!

[BOWTIE67327]

that old tucker is pretty darn cool, love the tailpipes

[Canuck]

Just down the road from me,ok 350 miles. Freaking Awsome.its like MCACN, pacific coast.

[big gear head]

Like MCACN, except without all of the cool individual owners.

[ZLP955]

Awesome teaser. Love the Tucker too.

[Stefano]

�� Awesome.

[mssl72]

I'm gonna have to make the pilgrimage there. Incredible collection!

[bashton]

Don't let him fool you. There are no Brothers. This is just a few of the cars Charley has stashed away over the past few years.

[72-SS-L48]

Incredible collection and showroom.

I knew it, I knew it as Bruce been telling me that!
Seriously, thanks for posting Charlie as that collection is just incredible! Wow!

[Canuck]

I will be applying to do volunteer work in Salem Oregon.

[Tig65gs]

Wow! Killer stuff,the cobras are my all time favorites.

[MosportGreen66]

Outstanding! Thanks for sharing. The signage is as good as the cars!

[prototype]

Looks like Ralph Lauren met Steven Juliano

Spectacular!

[69hurstSC]

A west coast swing is in order. The Suydam Collection than the Brothers Collection. Thanks for sharing, Charley!

[NorCam]

Those '69 Trans Ams are killing me.

How good is their security? Asking for a friend.

If they need a top rated security consultant, let them know I can head down and will consult at no charge Charlie. Of course a private tour would be in order while there. I think I'm ready for a little road trip down the coast again. Been a couple years now and have some friends to visit nearby

Security in Canaukastan?

Why do y'all need security? It's to cold to steal anything up there.

[x77-69z28]

I know I have said it before, but it’s times like this that I wish I was born rich instead of good looking!

[SBR]

Holy cow, that is incredible. Thanks for posting the pics.

[QUOTE=Charley Lillard; Excuse the mess but it's a work in progress.[/QUOTE]

Ummmm.....OK!

[scuncio]

That is unreal.

[firstgenaddict]

Simply unbelievable... WOW!!!

THANK YOU FOR THE PREVIEW CHARLIE!!!

[L72Biscayne]

The original owner Jennings B. Summerour of my Black 68 L72 Biscayne with 1000 miles was the original owner of the 34 mile 1970 red Ls6 that’s parked under the Chevrolet sign. Both of them were bought new at East Point Chevrolet in Atlanta Ga. They got sold together in 1978. Then got split up. I can’t wait for the opening.

[flyingn]

breathtaking, to say the least. wow. Cant wait to see it finished

[DW31S]

Will the museum be open to the public once set-up is completed? Awesome group of vehicles! Must be fun to be a buyer for them!!!

[Charley Lillard]

It will be open on a limited basis. They have also installed a commercial kitchen in case something like a non profit wants to have a fundraising dinner etc. Any proceeds from the Museum will go to charities. I'm not any kind of official buyer for them. People just seem to know I know them and approach me with cars. I pass the info along. I met them years ago when a broker asked if he could ship me a Trans Am convert they had just purchased in SF. One of the Brother's showed up with a open trailer a few days later to haul it home. Ive been miserable ever since.....

[Charley Lillard]

The Brother responded saying he's been miserable ever since as well.

[KLars1]

A west coast swing is in order. The Suydam Collection than the Brothers Collection. Thanks for sharing, Charley!

Is the Suydam Collection available in a museum for viewing or just private?

[Charley Lillard]

I think Kevin's is private but I think he has let car clubs in etc.

[TimG]

Having never been to Oregon, I have a double reason to try to get there for a visit.

[Xplantdad]

the brother responded saying he's been miserable ever since as well.


lol

[Lee Stewart]

Charlie:

I don't see any of the AFX race cars the Brothers own in those photos.

[southernfriedcj]

Are "the Brothers" brothers? Is their last name Brothers? Both?

[PeteLeathersac]

:hmmm:

[70-SS/RS-L78]

UNREAL!!
They not only cornered the 69 TA Vert Market it looks like they also cornered the 70 RA-4 TA market, at least the white ones, They need a Blue one. I'm sure they have there share of Super Duty's also.
Now I know where all of the 70-71 HEMI Cuda verts went to.
You have to admit, they have Exquisite Taste in cars.
Mark

[69SSRSL89]

I haven't heard anything on the progress of the Brothers Collection Museum in a long time. Has anyone heard any updates? I would really like to make some plans to go see their museum once it opens. It looks amazing! Thanks for any information you can provide. Thanks goodness MCACN isn't too far away so I can get my Muscle Car fix!! LOL!!

[Charley Lillard]

The Brother's are still in the process of staging cars. I think they will have 5 cars at MCACN this year.

[69SSRSL89]

Thank you very much for the update Charlie. I appreciate it. I look forward to making plans to go check out their amazing museum once they open the doors. It looks unbelievable so far. I look forward to seeing what they plan to bring to MCACN in a few weeks.

Well we've kept quiet too long and it's finally time to reveal the truth.


I'm Charley's Brother!

[m22mike]

You really want to admit that Dennis :hmmm:

[Charley Lillard]

They are almost finished. They have put a ton of effort into this. Truly amazing.

[Crush]

Wow!!!!!!

[NorCam]

Un...real. Thanks for the pics

[Charley Lillard]

Tip of the iceberg.

[Charley Lillard]

The cool part is that the Museum will be available for car club meetings etc. In exchange they would ask the club make a donation that will all go to charity.

[mssl72]

What they've done so far is very impressive!! I hope to get there someday.

[njsteve]

Amazing! I see a familiar car or two there. :-)

[Keith Seymore]

Ok - I think I'm ready to make my selection...

[RPOLS3]

Holy cow - amazing

Impressive; adj, vr. 1. Describing something that exceeds expectations and makes one use expletives. “Wholly shiznat! :eek2:“. 2. The use of physical actions to justify and enforce your viewpoint. “Wholly (boooiinnnggg) Shiznat!:eek2:”

Man, I gotta see this place! Thanks for sharing, Charlie.

Cheers:beers:

[72-SS-L48]

Unreal. Absolutely awesome.

[Postsedan]

I need to change my Depends!!!

Dan

[Charley Lillard]

Salem Oregon.

[Charley Lillard]

Dave
No idea but it is alloy body with roll bar. Restored by Charley Hutton. Pretty rare car.

[Tenney]

Dave

Think Steve's was a 4-Cam?

[Luvchevs]

No idea but it is alloy body with roll bar. Restored by Charley Hutton. Pretty rare car.

Thanks Charley.
Just looked like this car to me but I guess it isn't!

https://rmsothebys.com/en/auctions/MO14/Monterey/lots/r154-1967-ferrari-275-gtb4-by-scaglietti/181132

Maybe they recently bought another famous Steve McQueen car to add to the collection?

Dave

[TimG]

Wow, cool stuff.

[Steve Shauger]

Simply put ...just an AMAZING collection...The rarest and best of every type of car. Sharing it with the public is fantastic and very much appreciated!!! Look forward to seeing it in person and some point. :beers:

[Donnie]

Where else can you see a Gremlin X ...My parents had one when I was a kid

[Charley Lillard]

That Gremlin X is one of my favorites but I'm weird. Who does a complete nut and bolt resto on a Gremlin X.

[Bill Pritchard]

Who does a complete nut and bolt resto on a Gremlin X.

When you have the inventory that they do, why not? If that's one of the things that defines weird, then I guess I'm there, too.

[Tenney]

Me, too. Dig those. Scott cleaned-up a cool Randall car that was on hand at a MCACN or two ago.

[Motorhead848]

Wow.... this could be the happiest place on earth!! Would be an amazing sight to see!


Charley- What’s the total number of car for the museum?
