Hold on - I have got to get my wife to read your post. 256 cars! and my wife thinks I buy too many??? I usually own about three at any one time, mostly sport cars, but I don't think the total would exceed 70.

I have bills of sales going back to my first car, a 1937 Ford coupe, followed by a 46 Plymouth coupe, followed by a powder blue 50 Plymouth Convertable, followed by a rather beat 51 Studebaker ops: with the "super commando V-8, Studebakers first". :P But Jaguars, Corvettes, RX-7's, Austin Healey's and MG's quickly took over.
