sweet collection of cars. can I assume you store them in one garage/shop? if so, I can only imagine how nice that must be too.

Nine Ball · 07-05-2011, 11:10 AM

That is my shop in the photos, it is 2,400 sq-ft. I also have a 4-car garage attached to the house. Shop has lifts, plenty of space for storage and working on cars.

wow!! you lookin to take on an apprentice? lol

Tx1Lt · 07-05-2011, 12:31 PM

So, are they hiring where you work?

Awesome cars.

Where have I seen that black/orange '69 before? Is it from Barrett Jackson a few years ago?

Nine Ball · 07-05-2011, 01:22 PM

The 69 is not Barrett Jackson quality....yet. It is what I'd consider driver quality. The paint will be stripped off completely, and the car will be rotisserie restored by the time I'm done with it.

Would you like to trade for my collection of rusty but trusty American Iron? I have a "Built with pride in the USA" 1997 Ram SS/T in need of plenty of body work and a 1994 Caddy DeVille that New England winters have ate about 1000 lbs of American Iron off the body!

I am like almost speechless..what is that like almost half a mill worth of cars? Oil, rims, those cars, all I see is $$$$ signs!!

Nine Ball · 07-05-2011, 05:41 PM

Thanks. It is a large total investment for sure, but those dollars don't come easy! I grew up broke, put myself through college, and have paid my dues to get here. I stay pretty busy, and have spent months away from home in my industry. When most people leave work at 5pm to go sit on the couch, I go home and work some more. And weekends too.

Nine Ball, good for you. Nice to hear stories like that these days. I grew up broke too and NYC and my dad worked 3 jobs to make ends meat.
He got myself and my brothers hungry to get out of the city and it worked.

Have also had many muscle cars over the years including 2 Vipers, vette,s Camaro's gto's etc.
Have to say my favorite was my first car a 1966 GTO. Which is your favorite? I see you have a great collection.
IF you ever want custom inflatables for your business look me up and I will take good care of you. We do tons of them for the auto business.

Good Luck and you have GREAT taste in cars.
Thx,
gary
