Location: Georgia | A few weekends ago, a friend and I went down to Nashville, Georgia (yes, there is one!) and looked at an impressive collection of cars,
many FLs. Unfortunately, I didn't speak with the owner, but apparently he buys and sells often and many of these are for sale or already
sold. The collection spanned three buildings and a yard and I still didn't see it all.
Enjoy the photos, the first set is when we arrived, as these were the projects for sale listed on craigslist.

Location: Georgia | In the largest building, things were interesting. First, a nice Dodge, and well, you can see for yourself!

Location: Georgia | The 'patina' 58 DeSoto above is available, the engine bay was freshened and nice and tidy. A card on the dash read $10.5 K, or best.
The 57 Dodge hardtop below was in progress, and next in line to cross the street for final assembly.
The vintage 'custom' with a capital K was sold, and waiting to be shipped. Wild looking!

Location: Georgia | Some more beauties. My friend thought he was asking $10.5K as well for the 60 Chrysler Saratoga, but I'm not sure. She looked like
a nice driver. The 300 next to her was spectacular!

Location: Georgia | The dismantled 59 Fury soft top was sold and about to be packaged and shipped.
I didn't ask about the 57 Dodge.
Next, we went across the street to the shop and I snapped photos of two fine cars in their final stages of assembly, the Adventurer
and the New Yorker.
I'm hoping to go back soon and speak with the owner, as we were being shown around by the owner's friend and didn't want to
impose to many questions and take up too much of his time.

Location: The Bat Cave, Fairborn, OH | Well, it looks like this shop does quality work and the price of finshed cars doesn't sound too high. Do you have business name for it? |
