Be still my beating heart! A C2 with triennial roundel. A hemi, big drum brakes, Halibrands, and a stout frame. We miss you Briggs. Thanks for sharing Jim, Gary
I saw you driving north on the 87 about 30-45 minutes from the Tappan Zee Bridge Friday on the way home from school- picked up my phone to call you but the numbers were deleted... The Daytona looks amazing, especially in traffic. James, great shots, wish I could make it!
Looks like a cool, eclectic mix of cars. I like how they placed them, wonder if it was completely random.
I think that the only car that did not get away under its own power was the 2004 Zagato limited series (99) Aston Martin. It blew a hose on the way to the show.
Jim: Does Dave L still own that 250 with the superfast body?? Cistalia and B24 *****in', even the red Rebel was unusual.
Very rare that Savonuzzi Cisitalia: only 2 made: #001 and #002. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Sfumato, I'm pretty sure the Dave L. car (the blue one pictured) is a full Super America, not a 250. He also has a Superfast and as far as I know it has 5 liters. Art S.
Boudewijn, I hope someone posts a photo of the Blower Bentley. It was truely amazing. Here's two shots (Which are copyrighted and may not be reproduced) from the Vintage MotorSports shoot. Best K5mcl Yup.
That was the best part of this show simply people who like ALL types of great cars getting together. The Kino Twins who own the Blue BBLM spent the entire day letting kids sit in their racer and take pic's. The owners were all there and happy to answer questions and the owners are all people who use their cars. Richard has taken his Boano to the MM many times, Paul has raced his GTO has all over the world and all of us and many others including Gary drove our cars up and back home. On the way up I caught a bit of air on a particulary nasty construction bump on I 95 scraping the under skirt. Sal had a look and said: "Drive it up to the shop next Sat. and we'll pound it out and touch it up. You launched the rear end upwards at least two feet but I was glad to see you kept it between the lines when you landed."
Yes, that is right, I was thinking about a nearly identical carseen @ Monterey, which I seem to recall was a 250. I of course couldn't remember the SN anymore, and I wasn't sure if dave still had his, or if the SF had relocated. Anyone know this SN? Image Unavailable, Please Login
Cisitalia #0001 was the "box" coupe, and it doesn't have tail fins. There were 2 aerodynamicas (Tipo CMM), built in 1947 and 1948. I believe Zembrano (sp?) owns one of the two. It was restored at Tillack's shop. Here is a link to a photo of the box coupe and a spider at the 1947 MM.. http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/etceterinidoctor/detail?.dir=08c8&.dnm=e49f.jpg
