Anybody here gone thru the collection lately ??   "The Shed"  in Warroad not open to public 

  I was thru long ago,   met the caretaker of Bob Marvins cars at the show in Devils lake last weekend he had the "original Hurst "tiger" 65 GTO there ........... sounds like he has acquired alot more since I saw it last up to 90 cars now Copo's , ZL-1's pilot  Z16 ........ told me anytime the  club   wants a tour just need to call a few days ahead and he will make it happen .....

.. I know I know,  long ways for you guys and pbly most of you seen the cars at shows etc but got his cell number so any interest , think I am going to stop on my way to OHIO show   in Aug .......... good place for a club meeting,  for me at least nana

The Camaro Club goes up there every year in Sept. I've posted some pics and asked about interest in the past. The Marvin's own a restaurant/motel right next door to The Shed and we stay there overnight.

From the post Mitch made many months back and the photos he took. I looks like a very neat place with some pretty rare stuff. I never even knew this museum even existed before that.

 Yes thats what makes it so neat no one would expect that some of the most rare cars are up there .....I understand he has a close relationship with Dana Mecum some  of the rare one off cars came from Mecum ........the 65 "tiger" GTO he supposedly paid 400K for is a nice car but not that special IMO   not restored  and the paint looks like someone cleared on top of the original Hurst gold paint to  make it shiney , except for the paperwork it looks like a 50k car with poor paint to me .........but it is the Hurst Tiger ad contest  car with gold wheels paint and gold shifter and other trim ......he was taking pics of my car ...maybe he needs a Canadian Chevelle in his collection ha ha .....paint is pretty good wont need  400k ,      anyway just a thought   figured you guys pbly knew about it

Most of his cars are from Mecum. In fact, Dana watches for rare cars and gives Bob first chance at them. Many never see an auction, they go straight to Warroad. As for the price of the Hurst GTO, there's only one original and a couple copies made for Tom McAnn back in the day so the price is however bad somone wants it. I don't think he would have any trouble getting his investment back. The ownership trail and documentation are pretty extensive.
