    Phil Baumgarten. Phil came to south Florida from Michigan where he had a large trucking company among other business interests, but I don’t think he was here yet in 1960. Cressman was Publicker’s service manager at Pleasure Cars and eventually bought the dealership, renaming it Cressman Foreign Cars. Later, Phil became Bob’s partner and it became Cressman-Baumgarten Ferrari.

    That’s Tim Stanford in the picture who worked in Cressman’s service department.

    Spot-on Jack. As per David Williams excellent interview in PH224, Gerry Sutterfield relocated to Florida in early 1972.

    Appreciate it. Spelling American names is always tricky and trying to harmonize spelling in my 11.000 pages of collected Ferrari data turned into a mission impossible long time ago. Note to self: don't ever misspell Rutherfurd again.
