Yeah, they got a few cars there!
Makes Richard Petty's museum look more like a garage sale.

Rob, I think we must have stood in the same places, I have just about every pic the same as you.

That dont surprise me too much derek - for most of the exhibits theres only 1 or 2 good places to stand & take pics. I'm sure bro Stu has nearly all the same too.
I didnt post all mine either, trying to keep it to a minimum!
One i left out initially that caught my (being a 'daughtsman' myself, ahem) was this illustration dated 11-18-64. Lovely drawing but strange how an air inlet has been omitted, unless its underneath. Sure I've got an old toy somewhere shaped like that, supposed to be a dragster too.

We first went there 20 years ago (!!) and it is still getting better.
I still use the ex-Top fuel piston of his that I bought there as a pen holder on my desk at work!!
Great place & great pictures Rob

Great pics Rob, especially as they're indoors. That 1-of-1 FK5 Superbird was owned for many years by Jim's friend Dave Jones in Indianapolis.
