Next week, Rick Treworgy's Muscle Car City—located in a former Walmart in Punta Gorda, Florida—will close forever. Treworgy was planning to retire, although COVID-19 accelerated his plans, and he's sending his collection of more than 200 cars to the auction block. Mecum Auction will take bids beginning January 22

I know as far as the Camero goes these aren't the most popular model but I always liked them.

Sent that Mopar flick link to some friends who are Mopar fanatics.....especially one guy.......damn shame to be giving up on that collection, it be broken up like that.....too bad.....:sadangel:

Hard to believe that car sat for 37 years.....much less they got it running without major shit being done......

'74 is pretty rare these days. You see a lot of the others, but seldom a '74.

2nd gen. is my preference these days. Just kinda' tired of the 1st. gen.

Almost bought a new '81 Z/28 back in '81.
