    I have had this picture as my desktop for a few years now. I snagged it off Fchat and I've sat here drooling and wondering where this pic came from. As you can see it's one hell of a collection but the garage alone is amazing. Anybody got any info on it?

    Hmm..., if the cars were black, I would suspect the garage is Carbon McCoy's.:)

    Yeah, but then the floor would be black, too... And the ceiling would be black, all the lighting would be hidden, the garage doors would be black, those window panes would be tinted... The whole friggin' place would be black... :)

    It is in my town of Naples Florida.

    I thought my little museum room was good intill I saw his setup.

    I take comfort in the fact that he is a lot older than I and gives me something to shoot for :)

    Now if I can get him to hold on to that 288 GTO untill I am ready to buy it, that would be great.

    :D:D:D
    So I guess you STILL like black Carbon :)
    Long time ago! Everything fine over there?

    Good one Jurgen! :D

    And yes, that pic still looks great... I believe it was posted on F-Chat before in the "amazing garages thread" or something like that?
    Is this place still the same today? Same cars? Or are there a few traded in for something else?

    That set-up has nothing to be ashamed of.

    How many 308's do you figure are in the Naples/Ft Myers area? My family has a place on Sanibel, and I used to go down there for about 2-3 months over the winter. Occasionally I used to see a 308 on the Island and for one reason or another, I think it came from Naples. That was 4-5 years ago...pre nuptuals =)
