                  I'm glad you found such a cool thing and were able to document and bring it to the public's attention. There's some seriously cool shit there, and thanks to both you and the dramatic "The Collector."

                  Trying to get attention with cars is cool. It's hard to fail - you get it either way. But with writing, man. A different audience appreciates that kind of thing and you don't have to think so hard about every adverb to write well. It's unnatural.

                            Wow, what a pleasure that must of been. Happen to see a future project for yourself out of the bunch?? Talk about making a prime connection.

                            I'd have a nervous f-ckin' breakdown if I ever entered that garage. Sensory overload to the max.

                            Great pics and story, btw.
