    I hope I can post this up.

    Just scored this on eBay, and I will hoist a drink in toast to a fine man, once it is on my wall!!!

    More info in a second....

    Well, it looks like I didn't grab the image.
    Check out eBay auction #191074330564

    The ebay seller is bwp0615, that is Mrs. Carol Roush, and if you search her recent items an original oil by R&Ts W. Motta, drew no bids.

    Might be a seller to watch.
    Thanks, Rob!

    Maybe one of you tech gurus can post a link??

    I was driving down the highway, following my 308GTB to the Paint Shop, and bidding on that darn bar sign watching for sniping software, as my laptop battery ran low! :D :D :D

    I finally had to pull over and park, before I killed myself and some innocent bystanders!

    Thanks for doing that!!

    Yes, BOTH bids were mine, battling for sniping software...but sadly she had listed that sign twice before on EBay with NO bids.

    There's a thread in Classifieds Collectibles but the link is now empty, I wrote her daughter in law to find the file of art work...

    His collection, as one might expect, is a trove of remarkable items.
    I'll post it here, now that I talked to Rob about things.

    Just glad to have a momento from The Man...cheers!

    Be watching for some additional listings, from this seller (Mrs. Roush)

    I am trying to get the renewed link to the whole collection, and you could negotiate directly on the remaining items, without the eBay frenzy.

    It looks like the steering wheel went into a collection.
    IMO better to have gone onto an actual car!!

    Gonna hang this sign, and you guys help me with a toast to Gerald......

    No Sale, per Mrs. Roush today..

    That's a real nice item, bought after they ran the Mille Miglia themselves.

    She recently sold the Morris Minor they used to elope, also...
    I like 'talking story" with this lady!!

    Too bad the picture doesn't come with audio. The TR sounds unreal. It's like a race car with too much cam that just escaped from the track when driven on the street...

    I have a rather odd link to DePortago...the Playboy from the month I was born, was to have his personal recounting of the race experience..instead the article told of his demise...and those spectators and co pilot.

    I picked up the mag as a curio at Resale Shop, and there it was.

    OK, that shows some of the remaining pieces...

    I have Mrs. Roush contact info, also or it's up in FerrariAds in the original "Steering Wheel and artwork" thread also...

    I have a lot of Jay Koka already, but there are some cool bits in there.

    Check out the Bill Neale signed to Gerald by Jim Kimberly!
