    Would you be so kind to have these scanned and post them online? Many people would love to go through the book or make prints. Amazing find, I love this era of GM.

      I have no plans to do that. I want to sell the original collection as a whole.

    Definitely a one of a kind collection, belongs in a museum.

      I want to pass them along, but it has to be for the right number. Museums generally work on donations and exhibits.

    it was very cool to see that collection in person, Im real sorry about passing the virus on to you, sounds like the same thing. i came down with it about halfway on fri, just got released from the hospital tonight. i really hope you find a eager collector for the book.

      It wasn't your fault! I think it might have been food poisoning because the other guys were fine. I didn't have as rough as a go as you did!

    My parents found a large lot of glass photo negs in the trash one time... they were late 1800's of the local town.

      Cigarettes and whiskey make everything better.

    You may want to reach out to Nicola Bulgari collection in Allentown PA. He has a significant collection that includes Buicks of that era.
    Good luck.

    So how did they end up where you found them?

    • @QuickSpeedShop
      @QuickSpeedShop  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm not sure. The property own had died so can't ask him. Best guess someone saved them from the trash at GM in the '60s and they made their way to the barn where I found them.

    GM is going to want that book. Just watch. They may even try to sue you in court to get it.

    You left those drawings there at GM for them to copy? If you did you may never get the originals back again. I don’t trust these corporations.

      We have a signed agreement. It's not like I dropped them off at some guys corner photo hut. I have this video documenting the whole thing. I made it very clear I had a YT channel documenting the whole thing. They handle stuff like this every day. If they just stole stuff and screwed people, there would be way more important people than me up in arms. And do you really think I would have just left them there if I thought the guy was going to steal them?

      @ people lie and do dirty things all the time especially car makers who knowingly make dangerous cars and sell them anyway because the almighty dollar is what matters but I believe you’re a pretty smart man that knows what he’s doing.
