Exacxtly right! I was going to pass through Naples on my way to the Keys. I had read about the Collier Museum in a Porsche Panorama magazine article and wanted to see the cars but couldn't find any information anywhere about how to get in so I called the local Porsche dealer in Naples and asked to speak to their enthusiast(car guy) salesman and he was a friend of someone that worked for Collier. He set up the visit. We were the only guys in there and left alone to wander around. As you said, no cameras allowed because the flash would ruin the cars!!! Very memorable day.
