He's now selling. Here is a link to the original story. When you get to the site, on the left is a choice of places to go on the site.

The parts stash, which had been stored along with 10 desirable Chevrolet cars in 21 sealed box-van trailers, reportedly includes multiple complete Chevrolet high-performance big-block engines, heads, transmissions, fuel-injection systems, intake and exhaust manifolds, wheels and more. The inventory is made up of a mix of used as well as NOS Chevrolet and Corvette parts. The collection was unearthed in De Pere, Wisconsin, when the 21 tractor trailers were purchased from the widow of Donald Schlag, the man who collected all of the coveted Chevrolet artifacts over the course of his lifetime and stashed them away with apparently no intention of using or selling them. Schlag is said to have “had a deep love of all things high-performance and Chevrolet which led him to collect parts while working for his father at a John Deere Dealership.” Scott Milestone, the current owner, moved all parts and five cars from Wisconsin to Rockville, Maryland, and has since decided to offer this find to the public. The preview of rare parts will take place on May 7-8 in Rockville, and the auction will take place at High Point Farm in Clarksburg, Maryland. For more information about this auction, to register to bid, to receive a color catalog, or to consign a car, please call Bud Ward at 888-860-9664, or Michelle Blum at 877-252-2251. - By Mike McNessor
