Connecting Car Collectors to Events, Clubs, & Destinations Worldwide

Daytona Toy Storage Brings Luxury Garage Condos to the Heart of Daytona’s Car Culture

by | All Car Clubs, Featured

In Daytona Beach, where racing history is part of the city’s identity, Daytona Toy Storage is creating a private luxury garage-condo community just minutes from Daytona International Speedway — the “World Center of Racing.” It puts collectors close to the Speedway, Daytona Beach International Airport, the Atlantic Ocean, and one of the most active automotive destinations in America.

Founded by longtime businessman, collector, and IndyCar team owner Fred Treadway, Daytona Toy Storage was built around the way serious car people actually live. It combines secure, climate-controlled garage space with Daytona’s racing culture, year-round car events, and a community where owners can store, work on, display, and enjoy their vehicles.

Luxury Garage Condos Built for Car Collectors

Daytona Toy Storage includes 63 private luxury garage condominiums built for collector cars, classic cars, American muscle, exotic cars, supercars, luxury automobiles, motorcycles, RVs, boats, and other prized vehicles and collectibles.

These are privately owned garage condominiums — not ordinary storage units. Owners can shape the space around the collection, whether that means a pair of numbers-matching muscle cars, a vintage Porsche, a Ferrari, a Rolls-Royce, motorcycles, or a larger collection that needs room to grow.

The property is arranged around wide central drive areas, with about 65 feet between buildings. That extra room makes it easier to maneuver collector cars, enclosed trailers, large SUVs, RVs, and other oversized vehicles without feeling squeezed into a narrow storage lane.

Just Minutes From the “World Center of Racing”

Daytona International Speedway has defined the city’s modern racing scene since 1959, when competition moved from Daytona’s famous beach-road course to the new 2.5-mile Speedway. The first Daytona 500 was held there on February 22, 1959, in front of more than 41,000 spectators.

Today, Daytona International Speedway is known around the world as the “World Center of Racing.” It hosts the Daytona 500, the Rolex 24 At Daytona, motorcycle racing, and major motorsports events throughout the year.

That gives Daytona Toy Storage something a lot of garage-condo developments simply cannot match: location inside a city where racing and automotive culture are part of everyday life.

The Speedway is only a few miles away, and Daytona Beach International Airport is nearby as well. An owner can fly into Daytona, head to the garage, and be at the Speedway, the beach, restaurants, or a major automotive event within a short drive.

For a collector, that beats keeping a prized car tucked away in a warehouse miles from anything interesting.


Fred Treadway Brings Real Racing History to Daytona Toy Storage

Daytona Toy Storage also has something most garage-condo communities do not: a founder whose racing résumé includes one of the biggest victories in American motorsports.

Fred Treadway spent years inside professional IndyCar racing, working with drivers, race teams, sponsors, and some of the fastest cars of the era.

As owner of Treadway Racing, Fred reached the top of the sport at the 1997 Indianapolis 500.

Arie Luyendyk won the race for Treadway Racing, while teammate Scott Goodyear finished second, giving the team an unforgettable 1–2 finish at Indianapolis.

And the team had already made Indianapolis history one year earlier.

In 1996, Luyendyk drove the red-and-white No. 5 Byrd-Treadway Racing Reynard-Ford Cosworth Indy car to qualifying records that still stand today.

His one-lap speed reached 237.498 mph, while his four-lap qualifying average was 236.986 mph. Indianapolis Motor Speedway still lists both as its all-time Indianapolis 500 qualifying records.

That racing history is not just part of Fred’s past. It helps shape the personality of Daytona Toy Storage today.

Fred also plans to be an active owner at DTS. He enjoys talking cars, racing, and the stories behind them, so owners may find themselves swapping garage stories with someone who spent years around Indy cars, legendary drivers, and professional race teams.

For car people, that makes the community a lot more interesting than rows of closed garage doors.


A Place to Store Cars — and Actually Enjoy Them

Daytona Toy Storage is designed for more than parking a vehicle and locking the door.

Owners can turn each garage condo into a space built around the collection — part showroom, part workshop, part lounge, or all three.

One owner may create a polished display garage with specialty lighting and artwork. Another may want vehicle lifts, tools, detailing equipment, storage cabinets, and plenty of room to work on the cars.

Others may add televisions, racing memorabilia, seating areas, a bar, or a loft or mezzanine overlooking the collection below.

The result can feel less like storage and more like a private automotive retreat built around the cars and lifestyle the owner enjoys most.

That matters when the cars inside have documented provenance, race history, limited-production numbers, unusual specifications, or years of careful restoration behind them.

A concours-level restoration, low-mileage exotic, numbers-matching muscle car, rare European classic, or modern hypercar deserves a space that feels worthy of the car.

Whether you collect sports cars, vintage classics, American muscle, motorcycles, or need room for a full-size RV, Daytona Toy Storage gives owners the space to build a garage around the vehicles and lifestyle they enjoy most. Concept rendering shown for design inspiration; actual units may vary.


Built for Serious Cars, RVs, and Valuable Collections

Behind the polished exterior, Daytona Toy Storage is built with heavy-duty construction and the infrastructure serious collectors expect from a high-end vehicle facility.

The buildings use tilt-wall concrete construction, with exterior concrete walls ranging from about 8 to 12 inches thick. Inside, the garage floors are built with approximately 6 inches of high-strength concrete.

Every unit is climate-controlled and includes a large 14-foot by 14-foot insulated overhead door, giving owners plenty of clearance for collector cars, tall vehicles, enclosed trailers, and motorhomes.

Electrical service includes at least 125 amps, along with a 50-amp, 220-volt RV connection and standard outlets. Each garage also includes water and sewer access and is pre-wired for internet service.

The open roof structure gives owners even more room to work with. Depending on the unit and association requirements, the vertical space can accommodate a loft or mezzanine overlooking the garage floor.

That kind of flexibility opens the door to everything from a simple, immaculate car-storage space to a fully customized garage built around an entire collection.

Extra Protection for Valuable Cars in Florida

When the vehicles inside are rare, valuable, or difficult to replace, security and protection matter just as much as square footage.

Florida collectors also have to think about heat, storms, flooding, fire protection, and year-round climate control.

One of the more important design details at Daytona Toy Storage is that the property was engineered three feet above the 100-year flood zone — added peace of mind for owners keeping valuable collector cars and other high-value vehicles in coastal Florida.

The property also includes secure gated access, 24/7 owner access, video surveillance, fire protection, and a sprinkler system.

Owners can monitor the courtyard and exterior areas through the surveillance system, while the gated layout helps keep the garage community private and controlled.

Daytona Toy Storage offers available luxury garage condominiums with secure gated access, climate control, 24/7 access, fire protection, and space for collector cars, RVs, boats, and other valuable vehicles and collectibles.

Those details become important very quickly when the car behind the door is a rare Ferrari, vintage Corvette, limited-production Porsche, restored muscle car, or another vehicle that cannot simply be replaced with a trip to the dealership.


Fred Treadway Is a Collector Too

Fred’s interest in cars and machines goes well beyond the racetrack. He is a collector himself, with a taste for unusual vehicles and anything with a good story behind it.

One of the more unusual cars in his collection is the Amphicar featured in Alan Jackson’s “Drive (For Daddy Gene)” music video. The vintage Amphicar is part automobile and part boat — exactly the kind of conversation piece that fits Fred’s personality as a collector.

Fred is also a trike enthusiast, collecting and riding three-wheeled motorcycles from brands including Honda, Indian, and Harley-Davidson.

And when Fred wants to take the show on the road, he does it in his personal motorhome, combining his love of travel with the cars, motorcycles, and other toys that have been part of his lifestyle for decades.

That makes Daytona Toy Storage feel especially personal. Fred is not simply developing garages for other collectors — he is building the kind of place he wants to use himself.

His vision brings together collector cars, motorcycles, boats, RVs, racing history, and the garage lifestyle in one Daytona Beach community.

And because Fred plans to be an active owner at DTS, fellow collectors may find that some of the best amenities are not listed on a specification sheet — like opening the garage door and spending an afternoon talking cars and racing with an Indy 500-winning team owner.


More Than a Garage Door and Four Walls

That is what makes Daytona Toy Storage more interesting than ordinary vehicle storage.

The location puts owners minutes from Daytona International Speedway and inside one of America’s most famous racing cities. The garage condos give collectors room to build a personal space around their cars. And Fred Treadway brings decades of real IndyCar history into the community.

Put it all together, and DTS becomes the kind of place where owners can open the garage doors, work on cars, compare collections, trade stories, and spend a Saturday morning around people who understand why cars matter.

For collectors who already love Daytona, racing, and the automotive lifestyle, owning a garage here is about much more than having somewhere to park. It puts the collection — and the owner — right in the middle of Daytona’s car culture.
