Need more back story on this place. Where is it? Who's garage? What all is in there?

Definitely an interesting place to have a meet. Very cool cars especially the 110.

Monte is the most dedicated Mazda enthusiast I have ever met. Had I met Dave in Texas, I would have a hard time choosing, but the shear volume and oddities in Monte's collection is outstanding.

Not sure when he started collecting, and this is only SOME of what he has in this garage, mind you.

stuff i have noticed in the garage in my vists include...
-3 RE-5 suzukit motorcycles. Maybe 4
-1 Norton
-1 Hercules Sachs motorcycles
-2 rotary lawnmowers
-2 rotary snowmobiles
-rotary chain saw, rotary outboard boat motors
-2 three rotor engines
-various Rx8 engines and transmissions
-a geniune MFR 13b PP engine
-lakecity manifold w/ weber 45
-a pile of turbos
-TII engine with something like 800 original miles from a dealer test car that the driver wrecked and was killed in
-Two R100s, Rx-3SP, 3 323 GTXs, 1200 estate, 1200 pickup, Rx-2, the 67 110s, two REPU, 4 RX-3 wagons, some FDs, an Rx8, an FC rolled in 88 and parked ever since,
-dozens of 12as and 13bs of all years.
-all kinds of mazda nic nacs, light mazda light bulbs, dealership displays

seriously, i just tool around and find new little things that make me go "whoa"

Ugh, what I wouldn't give to see this place sometime.

Yeah, I thought I was a fanatic until I met Monte!
I am in awe every time I go in there.

Its like a ball pit a McDonalds, but inside of plastic spheres, its chunks of iron and alumnium causing internal organs to fail, but somehow, its okay.
