    Off the top of my head I can name a few; LeMay collection in WA, Nethercutt collection in CA, Harrah's in NV, Blackhawk collection, Gateway Auto Museum in CO, National Musclecar Museum in TN, Mattews' colection in CO, Henry Ford Museum in MI, Peterson Museum in CA, NASCAR Hall of Fame in NC, Indy Motor Speedway Musuem in IN. If someone wants of need to compile a list it would get long in a big hurry once you start including the rest of the planet.

    The best collections are the one's the public doesn't know about. To me that shed out back with a 1967 Shelby fastback > Any Super car collection, just something about that feel the barn car has.

    i agree.

    I love the big collection..but you expect the awesomeness.
    I love the feeling when somebody opens the barn doors and finds some nice lil gems in there.
    there is an old gentleman a little ways down the road who raises fighting roosters. he takes em to mexico and sells em for some crazy prices...i went into his barn/garage once. prowler, all 4 gens of vipers, # matching plum crazy hemi cuda, a few vettes and a s65 amg and some of the rarest harleys ever. made my jaw drop.

    Ken's collection is unreal. I got an invite to check it out through the 4 and made a trip across the border to check it out.

    Didn't disappoint. Reventon, Enzo, 8C, F40, and many more.
