    Found a color photo of this first Ferrari 250GT SWB. Raced it 54 years ago and now driving the FF and the 458 Spider... Love Ferrari!!!!!!

    Almost won the race (Sebring 1960 6th place) if it wasn't for the battery change that took more than 10 minutes...

    What a gorgeous car. It is so elegant and beautiful in its simplicity of form. I love the 250GT short wheel base most of all, I think.

    Frtiz you would like a garage like this and I would like to be in Portugal - isn't that just the way in life - in 2010 my wife wanted to go to Umbria and paint for 6 months (she is an artist) but I could not go because of serious back issues left over form the military - so i told her I would build Umbria in North Carolina - i added stone walkways and walls, patio areas etc so we now call the garage area Umbria

    Ah... the Smokies. We were there not too long ago. I assume that you have enjoyed the twisties on NC 215 out of Rosman.

    I live right off 215 but on the north side of the parkway over the mountain and down the hill - from my property i can see right up the valley from Lake Logan to the top of 215 - love that drive - I can see right past probably 15 ridge lines

    Completamente de acordo. A distância do meu país e à medida que vou conhecendo outros países apenas têm reforçado este sentimento.

    Obrigado por partilhar.

    Down in the valley is 215 - left is south towards Roseman - on the right between the last two ridges is Waynesville Pass where the conclusion of the story "Cold Mountain" is supposed to have happened in real life - the descendants - the Inmans - are my neighbors
