By no means is this a Barn Find, BUT it is a life long collection of automobile history. The dream only the purest car nut can have and a very lucky hard working affluent car nut can amass.
I've volunteered for the LeMay Family Collection since 2002. The white building at Marymount is not the half of the collection. There are another 200 or so cars at Marymount besides the white building. Also around 70 motorcycles. About two miles away there are 300 or so cars and trucks at the LeMay home site, which is not open to the public. In the surrounding community at various locations there are another 1000 or so cars and trucks in storage. Plus, right on I-5 in Tacoma is LeMay - America's Car Museum, which opened in 2012, with another 250 cars and motorcycles, many of which were donated or loaned to the museum by the family. Mr. LeMay left a treasure for the community which the family continues to share through their commitment to the collection.
WOW!! What a collection. Many rare finds in that building. An absolute fortune in that building. Thank you Mr. LeMay for saving and restoring history for posterity.
What an amazing collection and what I really love is seeing many of them as is, not restored to look like new, because that really takes you back in time
This collection is unreal. How many units are there. I can't believe the quality.
What I love about these vehicles is that they're all original, NOT restored, so they more accurately depict their working lives. They're only ORIGINAL once.
O.M.G.!! This is the most diverse, eclectic collections I have ever seen...no favortism to any year, make, or model. And the old machinery in front of them is something you never see...stuff that worked well in its day, and then was discarded....like the vehicles. Wonderful that this gentleman had the money to save it all, and preserve it for future generations. Thank You for posting this, and wearing out a pair of shoes doing it! 😁
That’s quite a barn and it looks like someone “found” them a long time ago
No wonder you were overwhelmed ,pretty varied collection ,cheered from the UK.
What a gift to us all that Mr. LeMay had the passion and foresight to collect all of these treasures for one and that his family chooses to keep the collection intact and open for us all to see . Simply amazing .....
Overload!!! This is like a Hot Wheels / Matchbox collection come to life. So many beautiful vehicles. I could bring a sleeping bag and spend days there.
What a amazing collection !! Never seen anything like it Thanks for sharing here in 🇬🇧

Thanks, great video!! I wish I could sometimes see this with my own eyes
This museum is the best museum I've ever seen! I'm speechless!. It's a work of genius, the interesting colours some of cars have been painted! And how also, these colours contrast with each other! I love how there's even a room, just full of JACKS , also painted in bright interesting colours!
Absolutely incredible!! I would have never dreamed such a place even existed. I could spend days maybe weeks roaming that building.
Old Trucks are my Favorite to see. Theres plenty of cars out there , but these truly are the Machines that built America From Dump to Tow to Delivery to Shipping Long Haul to Local Deluveries of every Kind Trucks are much Rarer than cars because NOBODY WENT OUT BOUGHT A MACK TRUCK & PUT IT IN STORAGE EVERY TRUCK WENT RIGHT TO WORK , MAKING THEM RARE And when Restored are a Beautiful Sight Unique in every way AND EVERY CHILDS DREAM THE FIRE TRUCK
I "discovered" Marymount after learning Lemay's Tucker 48 was not on display at the Tacoma Museum. Two years later on another visit to Seattle after having done my internet research and calling ahead to the nice folks at Marymount I visited with a friend and was blown away by what is there. The Tucker was on the floor but the size and scope of the grounds and facility (and of course the vehicles) were absolutely astounding. Behind the buildings is a maze of dirt roads where school bus after school bus are parked, each one stuffed with car parts. "Old school buses are ideal for storing parts", said a docent. The biggest revelation was that almost no car restoration is done here or at the museum; the cars are acquired as-is and we saw a number of wrecks in storage (a '75 Cougar comes to mind) under crumbling sheds. Marymount is truly a car-nut's idea of heaven and bless Mr. Lemay for his collecting passions!
The building and racking system alone are mind blowing
What a wonderful collection of motor vehicles. A mixture of the great and the ordinary. Mr La May has left a fantastic legacy for car enthusiasts and those interested in social history. What a remarkable gentleman, we are in his debt. Thank you for taking the time to create this post. 🇺🇸🇬🇧
