Here are a few more photos of the cars at the NB Center.
I was very impressed by this place and the work they do. For me, this is far more than just "one guy's" car collection, it stands for much more. The preservation of these and so many more cars from the Auto Industry's "heyday" is incredibly important. I am happy to see it happening here.
Enjoy the cars...

Yes, I agree. And the craft and the skill envolved here is amazing. Here are the six steps to re-chrome one part. It's a bumper if you can't tell from my abstract art photo!! 🙂Â

A high end resto shop like this one is my idea of heaven on earth; especially if the subject cars are post war.

John, thanks for sharing the photos. The photos from you and other attendees show primarily cars from the 30s through 50s, which is the focus of the NB collection. In addition to the Buick Riveria, were there any other car from the 60s?

There were a couple, but for the most part, they were from the 30s & 40s, and a couple from the 50s.

They have a few tucked away. I've seen a last-generation Buick Roadmaster station wagon, a 90's Buick Park Avenue and a few others.

John, do you happen to know if Mr. Bulgari is steadily adding to his collection?

@jack-dodds, yes, one of the jobs Keith Flickinger has is to track down cars suitable for the collection. It seems they concentrate on cars from the thirties and forties for the most part. But, wandering around the facility, there are a lot of vehicles that just seem to have grabbed their attention and were added to the collection.Â
