Another Utube shows his yacht. You would need to win several big lotteries to match his spending. He says he was a car mechanic.
"mechanic"? Yes. Car mechanic, no.

I was reading some of the comments and it looks think he bought a honda dealership way back before they became big and then went on to buy a few DOZEN more....but then he collects American cars...gotta luv that.

Fantastic!
But on the other hand, I didn't notice an original '68 GMC 950 stake truck

That's an amazing collection indeed. I suspect from an investment standpoint, it makes sense to put the money into collectible cars, but he also spent a chunk of change on the decorations and props.

Interesting guy. Lots of takes on who he is and how he got there abound if you google his name. There is irony in a guy making a TON of money by selling Hondas and Hyundais and collecting American cars.
However he got his dough, it seems to me he's spending it well.

I'd love to see it in person, I always liked classic american cars.
But...
this guy MUST have a lot of money if he can spend part of it in buying, restoring and setting up that sort of exhibition.
An they say that it is only open to the public a few times a year!
