Matt Harwood Posted yesterday at 01:28 PM Share Posted yesterday at 01:28 PM I've had a few cars from the Truet Cathy collection come to my shop. Not to speak ill of the dead, but without exception, they were all crap. Badly restored, totally neglected, incorrect colors and finishes. Just think of a guy spending millions on the worst possible cars (I suspect he was a bargain hunter first and foremost) and that's his collection. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just think of a guy spending millions on the worst possible cars (I suspect he was a bargain hunter first and foremost) and that's his collection. Funny that it's such a small world. My dad and Truett (two "t"s) were good friends and went to many auctions together back in the day. Truett actually bought quite a few cars from my dad's collection. I wouldn't go as far to say that he was a "bargain hunter", but he did buy with the "because I like it" mentality. My dad questioned many of his purchases but it didn't stop Truett if he liked and wanted the auto. Dad at 95, still loves to tell stories about he and Truett at auctions. He said at one, a big purple Monster Truck came on the block and Truett starting bidding on it. Dad asked him why he was bidding on that? Truett; "because I don't have one and I like purple!" I could carry on about many stories about my dad's and Truett's times together, but I won't. And rest assured, Truett's collection was not all "bargain hunter." I can personally attest to that.

You never even knew the man. What a load of of BS.....🤔 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAKerry Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago No knock on this thing because of any previous ownership (I love chick filet!), but to me its just a bad representation of whatever its supposed to be, plus it looks like a fibreglass fender on the dr. side that is broken off, who knows what other kind of parts this thing is cobled together with? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
