After a quick trip through the ‘50’s, a room filled with Elvis memorabilia, a few Edsels, mid-century Plymouths, Dodges and a cool Packard Caribbean, it was off to our next stop: the motorcycle collection. Vintage Harleys and Indians fill the room, including one Sportster trimmed with 24 carat gold. Exiting the motorcycle room, we headed to our next destination: England. Vintage MGs, Bentleys (including a



stunning Azure), and both new and classic Rolls Royces fill the space along with posters of Beatle-esque images. The 1947 Silver Wraith is a beauty. Just outside of England sits two Ladas, the Russian car that didn’t change much for decades. A reliable driver that has something of a cult following, the cars are a go anywhere, do anything type much like the old Volkswagen Beetle was.

Next up was quite possibly the largest collection of miniature cars in the world. Several Messerchmitts share a room (and shelves) with three-



wheeled and four-wheeled tiny cars. Tara was enamored with a white three-wheeler Mini L City, an electric car sitting on a shelf. But the coolest car in the room for me was Ed “Big Daddy” Roth’s old Honda 600. The car says “Knott’s Berry Farm Art Department” on it by his signature, so this little Honda may have more of a story than we were told…The next room was a small one, dedicated to Mr. Dezer’s homeland of Israel. It features a few Israeli Sabra sports cars and a nice Henry J.
