Cars and more cars.

one mile down the road from us, on Raytheon property is this huge red painted building .  The sign says , Newport Car Museum and great design. (Close) two things I’m really interested in. So 10 am it opens , Im there at 9:59, first in with camera’s and heavy bag. I get a personal quick tour about the layout and am on my own. I was encouraged to take pictures as long as I didn’t start the caRS … OR TOUCHED. so 75 of the most muscular, beautifully designed cars on display in 5 separate rooms, Named : Muscle, The Fins, Corvette, Mopar and Chevy /Ford.  This was a private collection of some extraordinary machines. From the latest Porsche Hybrid to older cars I had never heard of but were absolutely stunning. Examples will follow soon. After drooling ,shooting and admiration for two hours , I made my way out, maybe 15-20 visitors had joined me at that time. On my way out I met this nice older gentleman who asked me what I thought. I went on and on about how stylish, amazing and well thought out the place was. He was glowing and smiling from ear to ear. He owned the place and was so pleased someone saw the effort and idea that went into the collection.

 I will start with a quote from the owners, pasted on the entry hall.
