          The ones that attended the 2010 National Convention had the opportunity to see part of that collection. Amazing collection by an amazing individual.

            Rick did good and I am proud for him, but so did I...I have 4 corvettes in my museum but as the son of two orphans
            I worked just as hard he did to get mine. I like that he lets people tour his place to see the collection; it is the best I have seen.

                It really was an amazing collection of cars, in an amazing "setting", which includes a recreation of his grandfather's hardware store, the fire station and ice cream stand from his home town, a drive-in movie theater, etc. etc.

                  Wow, what a tribute to his family. That museum will live on for generations and amaze collectors and children alike! Thank you Rick Hendricks for sharing some of your life with us today.

                    It might live on for generations, but who gets to see it? Never understood why someone would spend that kind of money and not let us poor folk come and drool! Just sayin

                      That is what impressed me more than the cars. It is as much a tribute to his family as it is to the cars maybe more so. Also he worked hard to get what he has. It was NOT HANDED TO HIM. He is not a oh look what I have & how much money I have. I think that's why he keeps the museum somewhat private.

                        He seems like just a regular guy. No look at me now attitude.

                          He is a down to earth guy, talked to him a couple of times at his race shop, still it would be nice to view that collection.
