I was introduced to Todd, and his collection of GM Muscle Cars early in 2022. But I had met Todd for the first time at the MCACN show in Chicago.
He has saved all these cars from being destroyed. Some where barn finds, some were rescued from junkyards. Others were driven in. Being Illinois/Wisconsin cars they lead hard lives.

Guys like this buy and hoard them so others can’t restore and enjoy them. It drives the value up for the collectors who actually maintain their cars.

The problem here is, The '69 Camaro shown first to me is worth $5K. Others may give $10K. Your wanting to retire and will hold out for $50K. I'll spend $50K restoring it and that's doing most of the work and have a car worth 30 to 50 K. $100K to $150K if I have a restoration shop do the complete job after which it will sell for $50 to $ 100K. After going down this road I've learned it's quicker, less headache and much cheaper to buy one done and running. But good luck.

Best Camaro hoard ever was Merle Dupreys in SoCal. Worked for him in his Canoga Park shop in the 80s restoring those. Bought a dark blue S10 extra cab just like that one new. Once the trans and crappy heater core were replaced it turned out to be a great truck Plenty of torque looked and rode great. Good pool route truck.

That Buick gs is a 1971 stage 1 but the only way you can prove that it is a true stage 1 is by looking at the original engine, transmission or find the build sheet. Sloan museum does not have the docs. Very nice collection of cars. He should help save them and sell them to good homes.

Ahhh yes. "Long term projects".🤣👍 I don't know how much traveling you do, but,.....I live in Knoxville Tennessee. There is a honey hole out in an area near Maryville TN which is about 45 mins from me and where I grew up out in the country. It's in an area called Wildwood. There is a man out there that has a collection similar to this only it's way bigger. More diverse, and the quality is quite a bit better. Reason being,.....is he had put all the rare stuff under pole barns. The man's name is John Landry. His father "Jim Landry" and my father used to trade all the time on old cars, parts, and motors and such. He has Hemi Cuda's, GTX's, Chargers, Challengers, Camaro SS and RS's. Chevelle SS's, and more Buick Grand Nationals than I've ever seen. He absolutely loves those cars. Now,....I'm not sure if he still has them or not,....but he did have 3 COPO Camaros with all original motors and transmissions. One white one and 2 orange ones. The white one was bought locally and the 2 orange ones were California cars. These cars had very minor rust and zero panel damage. Now that was in 2001 when Tom was still alive. I couldn't say for sure now if those are there. John is a fairly private person, and no longer operates as a parts yard and isn't nearly as accommodating as Tom his dad was.lol But,.....I have heard that he has sold a few cars to certain people my father knows in the last few years. One of which was a real deal factory yellow, black interior SuperBird with matching #'s Hemi and 4spd. I was told it went for 6 figures. It's not impossible to find him if your determined. Whether he will oblige you or not??? Well,....that would probably depend on the mood he is in,....and how money you show him. He is around 70+ years old but sharp as a tack and definitely KNOWS HIS SH_T. If you think your intrested in giving it a shot,.....I can get you started. It's worth your time I assure you. What you just showed in this video??? LOL,...Ole John's collection swallows it 10 times. No kidding. The old sign used to say "Landry's Automotive. 40 acres of Parts and Cars". You do the math.

He has 5 warehouses full of muscle cars from 1965- 1972. You name it, he has 5 of them ! All restored to factory specs. I tried to get him to let me video tape them but he doesn't want anyone to know these cars exist, let alone where they are at. Superbirds Roadrunners Hemi Cudas Hemi Challengers Hemi RoadRunners Hemi Satellites Demons Chargers Hemi Daytonas 454 Chevelle 427 Corvettes 396 Camaros & Chevelles 409 Impalas The list goes on & on ! One day you will all know about these cars when they go to auction & its a special auction just with his massive collection. ✌❤

I'll also say around 35 years ago, when we were on a family vacation, we drove down US 25 thru a small town, I think near, or at, Edgefield, S.C.. I can't be sure of the location, it's been 35 years. We drove by a huge salvage yard full of 1930s, 1940s, and maybe 1950s cars. Close to the highway, it was clear these cars were never going to be sold. There were huge trees growing up thru the frame rails, etc. Told my father-in-law, who lived about 50 miles from the yard, about it, and he said he'd seen it also, and heard the guy wouldn't even sell parts!!

You know there's a very fine Monte Carlo if your friend there is interested. He has the parts to fix this very fine Monte Carlo. You remember the tornado that took out that town almost completely a good section of it South Kansas a dozen years ago? This man had buildings of cars a good portion of which were destroyed by this tornado. He has a few of them he already redone. In short farther time is catching up with him like he slowly catches up with all of us. Here's reasonable on this Monte Carlo. It wasn't a tree something got thrown on it and it took out the windshield and damage to roof around the windshield. It did not crumple the pillars and best my memory there straight. It looked like somebody set their backside on it and pushed it in. It also tore up the hood. But the interior is great card been mildly redone because it was a great survivor to begin with. I'm Monte Carlo 1970 or so is on my bucket list but it's pretty much at the bottom. But for somebody who is more inclined maybe this fella or somebody else. Isn't that what it's all about saving these little pieces of History. One side mark. I almost bought a car but I didn't have time to go get it during their schedule and it was on auction. It had been improved by the tornado. Not this Monte Carlo I don't even know what it was they weren't sure what it was. I just remember there's nothing special even if it was in perfect shape just wasn't that old. But it's set in the top of about a 40-ft plus tree all twisted and mangled up and a few years of growth had intertwine the tree canopy some what with the car. It was kind of a poster child for this community. Drawn a blank on the name of the town. In any case they use a crane and a crew of men to get the car out of tree I don't think that car sold for $150. But it was promised and they followed through and set the car on the trailer the guy who bought it. I was going to buy and transport it several hours because it is a fabulous piece of History. I wouldn't have done anything else with it except for put it in the barn or maybe outside the barn. Anyway that Monte Carlo this man has would benefit from the parks your guy has. Just FYI. I'm more interested in the Shell of the 56 Chevy that was a premium car before it got a little kinked on the roof. This man sold all the parts off this 56 Chevy highboy. Just a shell complete front clip is what remains and that's all I'm interested in. Anything else man has is more money than I care to spend. Monte Carlo I think it's 2,500 to a good home which is cheap enough. But don't say you're going to part it out that's not the Fate he wants far it. Enjoy your videos of these vehicles you show. You are a true car hobbyist. Obviously a Mopar guy but you show other makes and in quantity. As far as inline sixes and Camaros yeah most of them were taken out but back in my day there were a lot of them because they were an economy car and got good gas mileage. I remember people screaming about it when hit 75 cents a gallon. Then a dollar a gallon. Then Al Gore running for president in Paris platform was that we should be spending $5 a gallon for it. I guess he got his wish but he didn't get the presidency. Look forward to it next videos and I do have a keen interest in the Firebirds. I have one with the inline 6 but it has the overhead cam and is just two straight and original for me to think about a 400 or something along that line. Okay thank you for taking the time to make the videos

Find out what he would really let go of for real. And what kind of price? I rebuild first gen Camaros and would buy any with vin and title within reason. Ran into similar find that guy wanted to let go. Turned out everything was the price of weight in gold. I mean who can give 10k for vin and title. That’s might be for the rich man. Thank you! I enjoy videos you produce
