what an awesome amazing collection, i honestly cant wait for further installments of this, could you live stream the auction when the date is set?? be great to watch all these items roll over the block!!! be a great full days viewing on youtube!

What an awesome collection!! Richard I would like to see the auction. I can only imagine the insanity of what buyers are going to pay for those amazing pieces.

I think we all agree that we want to be part of this journey with you as long as it takes, don't sell it short with a one hour special, this is part of Auto motive/loads of other stuff history and we're on board all the way.

Possibly try to ship storage containers & semi trailers by rail. Even so, you need to hire a lot of helpers to pack up all this. Honestly, it's far more than I'd care to tackle, so good luck.

Man you imagine the live auction being up loaded on the channel. That would be very interesting to see how those iconic and historic pieces go at auction. Hope Dennis capture the event because he will never get a chance like this is you life time. I don’t think he realizes how luck he is to be chosen by this icon collector

Definitely the Holy Grail collection. The motorcycle's he collected is amazing, I would love to purchase a bike from this historical collection.

Awesome, it might be best to do a proper special on this collection, seeing all the cars/bikes pulled out, got running, set up for sale, film the auctions etc, there is enough material for several one-hour videos. make it happening.

Some perfume owner guy invented the Rokon originally for safaris, the wheels could also be used for water.

I dont know everything in that room. But what I do know is that Richard who is usually load and proud is walking through this place in awe and looking very humble and star struck. Very cool/

I drive past this everyday on my way to work And home and never new it was full of all this awesome stuff this is crazy.

Needs a home town auction. For locals

Wow, Richard, rehab the " Montego" fast back, insanely rare and whether it's a cleveland or BB, please, please, please, rehab it into a show, you will get mucho hits from old school Ford nuts like me.....It was a super muscle car at then end of the era and there are literally are none left...

The best collection in the world because no one is selling anything like this)) And all in mint condition and he is a very very clever man in every way and made sure his family needed nothing ever!! All his hard work paid off for him Amazing dude to put this one of kinda never see again collection together God bless ya all!!!

I bet he got a killer deal.... The 80 yr old man probably wasn't taking into consideration that $1 million is worth way less than it was in 1970..... I was looking for my 1985 Yamaha XJ700 Maxim in the collection.... In hindsight I realize a person could literally retire by buying a couple acres of land in the country in their early 20's and filling it up over the years with old items they bought for cheap & old items they picked for free out of the garbage. PBS Antiques roadshow, has hundreds of examples of items people either bought at a yard sale for cheap or trash picked that turned out to be worth thousands. One lady picked an acoustic guitar out of the trash, had no idea it was from the 1800's and worth thousands. Seen one guy bought a 1971 Rolex Oyster Cosmograph watch brand new in 1975 for $350 ($1670 in today's money) hardly wore it, kept the box & paperwork in great condition. The particular watch happened to become rare & because he kept the watch, receipt & paperwork in great condition, is now worth between $500,000 & $700,000.

What an opportunity. Once people's jaws return from the floor there is real potential to make some enormous money from everything down to the smallest memorabilia. These collections are out there. People bought up this stuff when no one cared about it or gave it a second thought to it's value in the future. How about some follow up parts and even video of the auctioning itself Richard. This video was an adventure. Let us be a part of it with you. A fan always.
