Projects Great Collection- My Office.

So, I got this gig about 6 mos ago, doing maintenance and some custom building for a guy with a great collection. Super cool guy, great sense of humor, and a true car nut. I've passed the "probation period" have made him happy by getting pretty much everthing you see running. We're working right now on stuffing a 450 hp SBC into a 1955 Alfa 1900 super sedan, for the Carerra Panamericana in the fall (Dear God, please let us get this car done and debugged in time...). I had posted this up a few months ago, but figured the boss might not be cool with me showing off his stuff to god and everyone without permission. Well, he gave me the OK, so here it is-my office. From an undisclosed, secret location in LA. Anyone think he MIGHT win the "Man Caves" competition? Oh, and bear in mind, this is just one of the warehouseS he has....

 

Oh yeah, I forgot-there's a full bar about 4 feet to the left of the line of Fiat Abarths...

 

Cool mix of cars.

 

Do you need a shop boy? lol. super neat stuff

 

How can you get any real work done with that hard-on in your pants all day long?

 

He wins!

 

wow awesome stuff. We have a shop filled with alfas and hot rods.. only difference is that that all ours are piles of crap.

 

Nice collection, thanks for posting the photos. Looks like a great use of the floor space, are the cars on the top racks runners or future projects.

 

Who do you work for, Jay Leno?????

 

Amazing.. Alfas and hot rods. Must be heaven. See if you can talk him into putting a SCCA prepped motor in a 1200 lb modified T!!! Gary

 

Looks like the economy hit him real hard.....NOT!

 

he got the cheese! nice collection..

 

He who dies with the most toys, is still Dead!
Jealousey rears it's ugly head head again !

Rocking Job you got there !

 

what he said ^ ^ ^ ^

 

That's nice!!

 

Well Im jelous, wish I had the money to spend on toys like that. May be a different collection but it is still cool.

 

Pretty nice collection, so does he roll up his sleeves, and screw things up like the rest of us, or what?

 

Impressive. Most impressive!

 

Killer job you scored there!!

 

Little bit of both...just having a hard time getting to the upper cars because there is nowhere to put the car under it so I can lower the lift. But times 40. And, unfortuneately, many of the cars where put into mothballs without fuel stabilizer, so I'm having to drain a lot of tanks and flush out varnish on many webers and solexes. Some days it smells like a furniture factory.....

 

BTT for you guys that missed it this weekend. Am I a lucky SOB or what?

 

WOW!!!! You weren't kidding!!! You do have some cool stuff there!! I will come by and check it out for sure! Thanks for posting!

I love Alfas!

 

I would love to see some pictures of the white vette in the background.

 

It's official. I hate the guy

 

Cool job and collection!

I see a few Hot Rods mixed in there. Any info on them? Do any of them have history or are they newer builds? Thanks for sharing the photos with us...
