that's good that you run them at least once i year, from your posts it just seemed like less, that's why i was curious.
either way, you and your family have an amazing collection and i am so jealous, having cars as art is awesome, and i wish some day i can do the same, with the same kind of amazing cars you guys have there.
any cars you and your family thinking of buying to add to the collection? or are you guys pretty much done?

I 
to your collection. I will never make enough money to have one, so all I can do is 
I'm surprised you don't currently drive a Ford given that is clearly the emphasis of the family collection. Do your bro and dad give you crap for driving an Acura?

I really like that collection! I do like them all, except for the new T-Bird.... never really warmed up to those. But that is a sweet stable of cars 
Love the Cobra and Pantera.

Yes it never ends, but at the end of the day my Acura is more American than moms Fusion. Last night I went down to a local meet to meet up with my dad and when I got there he had his friends tell me no foreign cars allowed.lol

An Absolutely beautiful collection you and your family have Dan and not just the cars but the memorabilia also.
I really like the Skyliner and the Baby Bird. My Dad just sold his 55 and 65 T-Bird Convertibles due to health reasons and every time I see one like yours I wish we had it back.
Is the 57 Bird restored or a survivor? The skyliner looks like a nice restoration but overall just a beautiful collection.

Amazing collection. Love the 70 Mach1. I had a 69 slip through my fingers. It was sold for only $2500. Exterior was in great condition, interior needed some work and it was running.

The skyliner is 1 of 2. He has another one I have to get a pic of. That one is a 57 skyliner one of 7 supercharged.
There are at least 10 cars I don't have pics of yet. Some are at my parents other home and some are difficult to get to.

My dad had bought another 70 mach1 from a kid in town. same looking car. think he paid like 1k for it back in the early 80's. Like 10 years later the kid came over to the house to see if he still had it. He missed the car and wanted it back in his family. My dad sold it back to him for the same price he had paid for it. The kid restored it and I still see it around every once in a while.
