I haven`t been here in a while and we took another trip with some friends over the weekend to see this fantastic/priceless/overwhelming private collection.


Enjoy!

Thanks for the pics at this iconic car collection/museum. Being in Naples Fl, it is not THAT far from you. (Yes, I had to Google the place. Good website!)
What is also unique from your pics is this is a car museum with no ropes or glass/plexiglass barriers around the displayed vehicles, so you can get up-close-and-personal with the vehicles (within reason, of course!)
I know I asked this same question last year after your trip to the WERKS Reunion/BRUMOS Museum
(reference: https://www.autopia.org/forums/car-...ion-brumos-museum-trip-2020-a.html?highlight=), but what was your favorite vehicle or vehicles on display at this museum?
 
LOL Lonnie, it is only a few miles from me!

Yes, it is a great experience being able to get close to examine them closely.

Hmmmm...Has to be the 917. He also has two 1966 GT40`s, so those are both at the top!
 
Sizzle Chest, just a follow-up:
1) Was that 917 the No. 23 Gray racing Porsche with the Martini livery striping?
2) No pics of the GT-40`s or did I miss them somewhere in the background? (Not that I need to see them)
3) Looks like a vast majority of the cars are Porsche`s (just an observation)
4) They let you (or visitors) into what looks like the work-shop restoration & maintenance area from your first pics? (Most museums/collections this is off limits to ANYONE)
5) Ever wonder what car-care products and equipment they use to maintain the museum-perfect appearance of this collection??
(Yes, I would be bold enough to ask and see this area if I could, but that because I have a big Captain Obvious nose! Go figure...)
 
Yes, the Martini liveried was the 917.

Nope, I took so many pics, couldn`t upload/post them all.

It is a Porsche heavy collection, but he has multiple others as well. He has a great Cunningham collection.

Yes, we got to go into their shop area! Was cool!

Yep, I`ve seen a few of their cabinets, nothing crazy, some Meg`s stuff in there, about all I saw.

I`m curious, but I think I may be safe to say some detail spray and some underwhelming MF towels...
