Yes. I do. Pictures from the Frere/Dron book attached. Engine is attached to the back of the gearbox, so making the gearbox 30mm longer pushes the...
Wow, what a great car. Love the early 928. Been going though my Christophorus collection and marvelling at what a fabulous car this looked/was, in...
I have seen this car at a concours last summer in the UK. Looks fantastic. It really does. As for the article, it would have been nice if they...
Hi Joe, It was not, as far as I can tell, Simon Draper. The service book lists a Mr John Draper of Williams and Back Ltd, Maddox Street,...
Indeed, I was there. All I can say to my fellow Europeans is, if you haven't been, go! It is a real eye-opener. Anyone who seriously thinks our...
Sadly, I am going to miss that as I will be beating my way back from this year's 356 international in Switzerland in a '56 Coupe. But if you are...
Spotted...maybe getting ready for an outing to the 2019 London Concours? https://londonconcours.co.uk/concours-cars/ :cool:
I saw this one too. It was very clean looking, but impossible to tell too much from a quick look around. And I am always cautious on mechanicals...

I have my copy... What a great write-up for the cars we love...no "winner" as such in the test, but apparently it's the Countach that puts the...
I thank you for the kind words. You need the light to really appreciate it. For me, the best colours on the Countach are "restrained" enough that...
Damn, you're good, Joe! Does nothing Downdraft related escape your attention? As you have said, many-a-time, these cars need "the love" and it...
Ha! Sorry, Ryan. You threw me with the two columns a page. Congratulations to the buyer. Details notwithstanding, this certainly serves as...
And on consulting Ryan's bible I notice there is a gap in the '77 chassis numbers published, between numbers 543 and 586. The Gooding Haywood car...
This has been bugging me. on close inspection I notice a Ruf tach and a boost gauge in the wrong place. Are they original factory mods too? Did...
sold for around Euro 125 hammer plus about 18% fees to RM so maybe Euro 145/150 all in? I looked at the photos but didn't go and see it. Wasn't...
