What a beautiful group of cars. Your uncle definitely had great taste. I love the E-type and SL and the DB4 is one of my favorite Astons ever.

It's great to see a love for classic cars and then right next to the Benz there is an Atom.

Sounds like a great guy and sorry again for the loss. Thanks for sharing the collection!

Sorry to hear of your uncle's passing, but thanks for sharing pics of his great collection. Are the cars still in the family?

That is a great collection your uncle had. That AC cobra is my favorite car of all time (the semi-comp), but knowing how expensive that is I know it will preclude me from ownership. Sorry for you loss. At least his collection is still around. When my one uncle in florida died, he had a nice (smaller) collection with a RR Corniche III, some SLs, a couple caddies, a pierce arrow, and a few others. He lived away from the rest of the family, and when people went down to figure things out, they were all gone...

Shame it was not handed down to you as it seems you would have appreciated his collecting over the years. Sorry for your loss mate.
