>> in fact, harold had only sold three collector cars in his lifetime. family members are dismayed. >> none of us wanted to be the ones who said we split all the stuff up. you don't want that car oil on your hands. >> if you really didn't want them. why did you ask for them? because it made me feel like that's the reason they wanted them, to sell them. >> the museum auctions off 145 of harold's donated autos. their estimated value well into the millions. his 1940 packard convertible victoria sells for 113k while his 1936 rolls royce goes for more than 65 grand. they do their part to help the museum keep going, but when the sleek looking building finally opens in 2012 its name's been changed from the harold e.lemay museum to lemay's american car
