    How cool is that, I believe they have a few things wrong though.

    Great pictures, such a cool historical piece!

    Great car. Great guy. Great charity. Great photos

    If only the journalist was a great writer! The work Jim put into his car (and to charity, the car community, etc...) certainly deserved a better writer for this story. It's so chopped and doesn't flow at all. This is a story that should have written itself, but it seems the writer simply took notes and created complete sentences out of them then called it a day.

    But congrats Jim. Car looks great. Unfortunately, I was covering CI and Bohnams all day so I missed Quail. I'm still recovering from Pebble and flying home last night.

    $770k in 2004!?! Seems very well bought to me. (not that I have that kind of change, but just saying...)

    Glad to see it in given proper care and enjoyed.

    Congrats Mr G!

    Welcome to the World of The Daily Fail!

    If the paper runs this story like most the others that it runs, Napolis will be linked somehow to the death of Princess Diana, and the value of the car will be the reason why the housing market in the UK is still in a slump!



    Then there will be a follow up story:

    Britain's financial woes! - is Ferrari to blame?
