He set up the visit. We were the only guys in there and left alone to wander around. As you said, no cameras allowed because the flash would ruin the cars!!! Very memorable day.

Uh oh giving away trade secrets now! lol I didn't read that article but I know the man. He still has the same Porsche he went to college in the collection. I know a lot of people that would like to visit the place and I tried to give a clue to find an area club that may use the Collier facility. You won't find any info these days on the collection unless doing a search and find some threads in forums like this and some pictures here and there. Some try to email
The REVS Institute which you can look up the info but frankly I think they are getting tired of the requests through REVS.
Actually I know a few that might take your approach if they read this. You wanted to see the collection and found a way to get in. Good for you.
