Family prepares for auction of late father's extensive collection of muscle-era cars and parts

Rick Langlitz worked tirelessly Thursday, to finalize the details of his father’s estate. “I’ve lived here for 27 years. I just didn’t know the volume,” he said. It’s work he’s been doing since February with his two younger brothers, older sister, her husband, nephews, cousins and grandchildren. “There’s 117 cars here that are in various stages of disrepair, and there’s no way that a single person could restore them in their lifetime,” Rick Langlitz's sister Michelle Johnson said.
