An amazing collection of Black Corvettes and classic cars Bill Mullis has assembled on his farm outside of Asheville, North Carolina. I was able to take a tour of a Corvette plant when I was a kid and it was cool to see the cars being assembled. Bill found that black cars were harder to find so it made collecting them more of a challenge. 23 Corvettes from 1954 through 1969, the heart of the collection, weres sold off during a Mecum Auction at Bloomington Gold in June of 2011.
