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

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

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.

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
03-19-2019, 08:15 PM
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.

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

I think Kevin's is private but I think he has let car clubs in etc.
Having never been to Oregon, I have a double reason to try to get there for a visit.

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.

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!!

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.
