5 cylinder rotary engined car of 50HP..adams falwell..seen at monterey 2012.....the guys says this was part of the Harrahs collection in reno..so i must have seen it at some point,my dad and i went to the collection yearly,a high school classmate of his was a muckymuke there at the time,and we got to not just see the main cars that were on public show,but he would take us out into the back "barns" (which were HUGE garages) and show us the cars there,i remember one that was absolutly nothing but black colored model T's of all types,must have been 500 of them ( atleast to a kid there was 500..lol)but the count was close,,they were fender to fender and bumper to bumper,you had to climb a ladder up on to a loft like thing and then you could see them all,you could not walk around them..and they were all dusty ..another garage was all model A's,then there was a outdoor area where a bunch of stuff was stored,when you first walked up..it looked like a bunch of old crap just rotting away...but there sat the photo recon version of a P-38 (F-6 was it?) and the wooden boat thats now restored and back on Lake Tahoe,with all the copper and chrome .the thunderbird http://thunderbirdtahoe.org/yacht-history and there were old buses and fire trucks,one was a hook and ladder a family friend now owns..man named Jim Dobbas,he owns a company named "rushway inc" they travel world wide cleaning up railroad crashes..and the fire engine that cheech marin was with when i spent a week with him thinking his name was Jaun was sitting there in peices when i was a kid..lol.if i havent.i should tell yall that cheech marin story...its pretty funny...
