jackofalltrades70 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 There's a lot of good people in that area. Seguin, Austin, etc. I would imagine that just visitin' with the good old folks from the forum would be fun in itself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 The Atwell collection is in nearby Kerrville, but it's not open very often. Mainly to groups. A very fine collection of prewar Classic cars. If you know someone who knows someone, you might be able to get in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Texas Old Car Guy Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 (edited) David:You might want to visit Dick's Classic Garage in San Marcos (between Austin and San Antonio). It has only been open a couple of years and is the collection of Dick Burdick who was a frequent participant and winner of the Great American Race. Here's more info about his collection:http://www.dicksclassicgarage.com/He has four Duesenbergs, a couple of Auburns, a Cord, a Stutz, a Tucker, etc.[TABLE=width: 90%]<tbody>[TR=bgcolor:

Robert G. Smits Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 We visited the Atwell collection on the 2010 Sentimental tour. It is worth pulling strings to get the opportunity to view it. Dicks Classic Garage is part of this years Texas Tour May 22-24. Google 2014 Texas Tour for details. Bob Smits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
