Sigh......

I believe the '57 Heaven collection had that kind of fate. The old man got too old and no one picked up the reins.

On the other hand, you are right about the continual churning. One of my biggest surprises was stopping at a ridiculous little museum in Murdo, SD. In among the Beatle lunch box collection and a lot of tractors and old polka records was one of the original Tuckers!

Cars sure get around.
