    Thanks (VBG) and duly noted! Actually, it's my late father's drafting board and I've hung on to it for sentimental reasons.

    Yes. One of our 4 xk120m s had a shunt at the 2018 Mille Miglia. Being repaired now.

    Garage was build by Franco Valobra and I. We combined our collections, and brought some private mechanics in house. We built it out like a clubhouse. Have had a lot of fun

    Is that yours? Looks like a show room of a business, given a number of indicators. But I’d like to know where they got that metal riveted chair and engine from!

    It was from Franco’s 355 Challenge. We have a few engines from our CCR races that we’ve made into coffee tables

    Nope not a business. My private garage about 10 min from my home in New Orleans. But in the back we built out a full service shop where I’m doing some service and resto work in house.


    The chairs I got from Restoration hardware.

    I had Peter Salavary from SkinzWraps do it. In person it’s very dramatic because each panel is about 12 feet by 25 feet.

    My brother in law Alex helps out as lead mechanic. He worked on my wife’s families WRC team in Russia and in a restoration museum in Moscow.

    With exception of two of the Jaguars from the MM team, all of the cars are owned by Franco, myself, and many we own together. We’ve been doing Ferrari events together for 20 years now, so combining our collections, and memorabilia that we’ve accumulated over the years has been fun.

    We also built out a bar and put in a kitchen to host parties. We’ve been opening it up to several local charities. Image Unavailable, Please Login
