    Just curious if anybody knows anything about this?

    I was on a motorcycle trip and drove thru Warroad, MN. It seems that the owner of Marvin Windows has 50-60 muscle cars in his collection and he stores them in a warehouse right in the middle of Warroad. The collection is open to the public if he happens to be there that day. Camaros, Mustangs, Cobras, Corvettes, etc... Unfortunately, I was 30 miles past Warroad when I heard this information.

    I also was told that Jay Leno had flown up just to check this out.

    Anyone?

    I've heard about the collection but Warroad is pretty far out in the "woods" to go see some Detroit iron.

    I know. Can't say I'm planning on another trip up there soon.

    I was sitting in a bar in Baudette, MN, about 30 miles East of Warroad, when the bartender told me about it. He'd been there a few times and said it was incredible. We had already road 350+ miles that day and I just didn't have the energy to backtrack. Plus, the Canadian Molson's were $1.50 on tap and the bikes were parked for the night.

    There's more than 80 rare muscle and classic cars there and it's definitely worth a a visit but I suppose if your ******* was already sore from riding a whole 350 miles in one day then Horsepower really wouldn't have been of any interest to you anyways.

    Looking through the pics, It's not really (IMHO) an earth shatering collection. Something to stop and see if you're in the area, but certainly not the holy grail.

    I guess it depends what your definition of earth shattering is; have you ever seen a genuine Chevy Hemi? Well Smokey Yunick built 4 for GM and 2 of them are in Warroad, 650hp factory 302ci, how bout the original GTO concept car; the GTiger, it's there too. I've seen some pretty good collections here and there and this one ranks with some pretty rare and clean iron.
