    Never seen a lime green Mondial but from the looks of this 308 example, it would be very cool! Btw, its not Fiat green, its Miura Lime Green :)

    Like the pods up!
    Nature gives really nice colors! pity it does not take that long like summers :) but sitting in the chesterfield in the garage during the dark days has its charm too :D

    Nice Mercedes Mike! always love the round headlights instead of the square ones in Europe. 9 cars! I would already have been buried alive ;)


    It's getting really cold here and nature is transforming to a season my horsy does not like. Enjoying the last drivable days here!

    No Mike I sold it too about a month and a half ago. I realized it was a bit too nice for me and kind of afraid to drive it too much. But yes I loved it, it's a lot of a car.

    I sold it for my next crazy project, an helicopter.

    Hi Tijn,
    Great shots from you as always! Yes we have the same weather and seasonal change in VA. I might take the fcar to Shenandoah valley this weekend for the color change.

    Cheers

    I can vouch for the guys in Canada. They can rebuild all those struts in good turn around and good price. Plus you get to keep the Ferrari logo on all the struts, don't toss out those struts. If you are going to I will take them.

    I think you're right I will list it with both wheel options, plus I have the OEM's. Probably Ebay listing. Can't list it on Fchat, too brutal a crowd, which the link will end up here anyway. As for the plate on the windshield that is from the 60th Anni of Ferrari in Beverly Hills, I was car #509.

    That is a sweet helo! I see why you are wanting one but that is an expensive toy!
    Good thing you are mechanic!

    Last time I saw the QM2 was in Long Beach with the Spruce Goose.
    Is that where you were visiting? Great car, great place!

    I'm with you on that one ;)


    Nice place, we've been there a few times, very nostalgic indeed, the Mondial loves it too.
    Thanks!

    Cool, so they had the QM2 there as well? We stayed on the Queen Mary overnight, very historical place to spend the night, our son was scared of the ghosts, which we actually captured on a photo. LOL. Definitely a must do if you're in Long Beach.
    Took Sophia for a well deserved bath upon our return, she did so well I decided not to sell her, as I was going to start looking for a coupe.

    Days are short now, damn it! Near 80 in Maryland today so took the Bertha Mae to look at a combine for a customer. Nice trip through the Amish country to Quarryville, PA. Stopped and had veal for supper. Street lights make her look pretty cool. I hate winter!

    Most shoes look good - when they're attached to feet that are so beautiful - - like your's !

    Yes, I'm a bit biased. :):):)

    Oil & Gear oil change, misc interior & wiring, mounted the restored wheels and went for a great drive in the Hill Country yday - little nippy so tested the heater - did note some condensation on the center gauges. Last week I was vacuuming water out of the workshop during the heavy rains.
