[RiverDave]

My buddy Dave just went and did some wiring for AC units in some hangers.. These are some of the toys that were in them..

I love the virtually stock RZR thrown into the mix of all the craziness. I wonder if the V24 semi is actually functional

The small block bar stool thing looks lethal after a few cocktails

Wow, so three tractors? One V24 with superchargers and nitrous, one V24 with a million turbos and another with unknown induction system lol

Small block barstool sounds freaking amazing LOL

I've seen the Huey flying around Havasu before. It's pretty bitchin.

I'm sorry but that truck thing is just fuckin stupid (and not in a good way).

 

[cakemoto]

Yeah I thought the semi sold When they were overseas

 

[RitcheyRch]

Last i heard Erick @82daytona was trying to buy the supercharged tractor for his hay hauling business.

 

[bonesfab]

word was Thor was sold in Saudi to some chinese dude for 12 million. It was one of the few things that sold over there.. I guess that was bullshit if he still has it. Nice hangar though.

It’s still here. Maybe they haven’t transported it yet?

That hanger is owned by Mike Harrah as in Harrah Casino Family. He is a big time commercial developer in Orange County and has more toys than Santa Clause on Christmas Eve. He usually flies in his Chinook Heli most weekends and has a pad at Kings Condo's. Looks like a larger version of Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top. Cool guy.

Yes on a developer. He built the London Bridge Resort in the 80’s The company I work for installed the fire sprinklers. He has had a tall high rise in the works in Santa Ana for years. Getting closer to finally getting built. I don’t think he is part of the Harrah Casino Family though.

Some cool stuff can be found in the smaller airport hangars. Spent a lot of time at Chino airport and some neat stuff there.

Forget where or when I heard it ( maybe from an old guy that used to work for him) but he was not interested in the family business and went his own way but I never checked it out so I could be wrong. Either way, cool, successful guy with some of the coolest toys I have ever seen.

"Some real estate developers like to avoid calling attention to themselves. Mike Harrah isn’t one of them.

He stands 6 foot 6, weighs about 275 pounds and sports a signature ZZ Top beard.

He’s flown his own Cobra attack helicopter in stunts for Hollywood movies."

The '49 Buick is a bad ass window to the car clubs of the fifties.

I can picture the car sitting at a drive in on Van Nuys, with a couple of tough guys leaning on the front fender of the car, their long black hair slicked back, and a pack of Pall Malls rolled up in the sleeves of their T shirts.

The big sedans built between 1949 and 1952 make incredibly cool lowriders. Check out this 1949 Buick Super Sedanette. Its styling is similar to the '48-'50 Cadillac Series 62 Club Coupe, the car made famous as ZZ Top's CadZZilla.

It would be amazing to walk through and spend some time looking at all the treasures.
I believe there is a video of him starting the V24 diesel somewhere. Unique individual to say it mildly.

probably trying to figure how to box that thing up for shipping

 

[Lucky Larry]

Awesome, many years ago probably 70s he built some apartments down the street from the lumber yard I worked at. Cost to build 300k. sold 400k. I asked him “what’s next” his reply “I am going to Tahiti” work some , play some , back to work rinse and repeat It worked out well for him

 

[monkeyswrench]

Some serious toys. I can't imagine the polishing or chrome bill on just one of the tractors. At least this is a person that is actually enjoying having some money. He isn't the type that is just worried about making a buck...he likes to spend some too.

...and my God, he has his own Apache! Whole different level of cool!
