If I recall there not all his or should I say owned by one person. But thats just me I think its more of a group or something like that. Ive seen these pics in the Texas forum on ls1tech.com if I find it ill double check on my reply here. But i can be wrong.

The man definitely has excellent taste when it comes to cars and styling/modifying them though.

Tony doesn't consider his car's a collection?! Tony buys cars left and right, starts projects and sells them off. I don't consider his cars a collection, I think for it to be a collection you need to keep the cars for at least a little while.

I know, I honestly don't understand how he could sell that '69. I would own that car until the day I died.

Other than that I love FBodies but if I had his kind of money I'd have fewer cars but nicer cars. For example instead of spending all that money on like five different LS1 FBodies he's had I'd have a Viper and a C6 Z06. But that's just me, it's his money and he can spend it however he likes. And to be honest I do love seeing all his different cars come together.

I'd build his old supercharged LS6 1st gen, a twin turbo 4th(but not for drag), and then the Viper. If there was money left over a C6 Z06 as well.

Don't need to worry about the daily driver because he as that as well.

For those of you that don't know here's a link to his cars.
