What it takes to protect a priceless 115-car collection from Hurricane Ian.
Running a car museum in Florida has its complications. Hurricane season poses huge risks, and so, the Revs Institute in Naples, home to one of the greatest collections of sports racers anywhere, has a hurricane plan in place. With Hurricane Ian bearing down in late September, the museum had to put it into action. In an interview with, Scott George, curator of collections for the Revs Institute explained the process. It's elaborate.
To move all the historic sheet metal, displays and furniture must be broken down, and cars on stands have to be put on a portable lift to then be put on the floor. Two teams of five then get to work, with one team on lower floors pushing cars onto an elevator and the other receiving and positioning cars on the upper floors. Those on the upper floors have to make sure there are oil-drip pans under each. There's only just enough space to squeeze between the cars once everything is in position.
