Tim Wellborn's Garage

[Donny Carlson]

I toured the Wellborn Muscle Car Museum today, and I'll start a thread with some pretty amazing photos of the collection and the museum building.

But, after the tour, Tim Wellborn invited us over to his house to see the cars he keeps in his home collection. I never thought my jaw would hit the ground again after seeing Marty's shop, but this, this... well, as I heard it said several times... this was a nice place.

So, here's Tim's garage. I gotta say, the full working bar and flat screen was a nice touch, the omfg $$ in muscle cars aint bad, either.

This is on the grounds leading up to the house....

That's his garage. The daily drivers are kept to the left, the collectables are on the right. This is the driveway behind his house, the pool area is to the right of this building

His Challenger SRT is to the left. He drives a 300cSRT for a dd, too.

The blower on the Ford GT is autographed by Jack Roush.

Those belong to Birmingham Mopar club members. We drove out to see the museum as a group. The black SRT in the middle (behind the 70's Cudas) is my car. We had a Prowler with us, I think he parked further down.

Nice place. My favorite observation was that most of those cars had 3 PEDALS.
