Hi Dina,
I sent an email to you on Friday - must be hanging in cyber space. That is neat that you scored at the "Mothers" display, good stuff! Shame there was so few Ferraris. The Cobras were looking good! Tell you the truth, thought that was you in the bikini and was too shy to say hi!! :) Take care!

Hi Mark, You should have informed me you were going. I got there about 12.30pm and managed to park in the library area. It took me about an hour to get to the Ferrari's.Not as many as I thought. Met an old friend from SAAC and he introduced me to Carroll Shelby. Shelby was very pleasant and even autographed the front of my T shirt.(With love, Carroll Shelby) I did end up giving a donation to the "Shelby Childrens Fund" but he just smiled and said it was a thrill to give me the autograph.(Still chatting up the ladies in his late seventies!) LOL. He then had to go in to the presentation lunch. I was impressed with the other cars at the show. Loved the original early Pantera ( with out all the wings and rubbish like some of them had). The Cobra's looked great as well as the Shelbys. A friends ex Tiger was there but of the 7 or 8 Tigers at the show there was not a single clean original one there . They all had their engine bays full of aftermarket rubbish and chrome, YUK! Also got a great deal on the Mothers Polish System and leather cleaner. The guy was so impressed that a girl has a Ferrari he gave me a bag full of samples as well as my $10.00 polish set I bought. All in all a great afternoon and the diversity of cars was great. And yes there were a lot of great looking women around, including me !!(Although I would not be brave enough to walk around in a black & white check bikini !). Love from Dina.

Hope you enjoyed.
