"I own all 5"

Dude - I dunno if anyone told you this but something is worth exactly what someone else is willing to pay. If all 5 are unrestored and wasting away in your backyard then Hagerty is just being friendly.

btw, I feel like there is about a 10% chance I become the guy with all the decaying fiberglass cars in my yard.

Growing up n St. Pete in the 60s, a neighbor build two cars similar to the Shark at 11:00 in the video.  He had a 'vert, one of his friends had a bubble top version of the same car.  I remember a while after the guy passed away, his two teenage kids were out in the school parking lot on a Sunday trying to bump start the thing. 

Bookmarking these for a rainy day!  Thanks.

 

Edit:  I just remembered the guy's name was Covington, it may still be around.
