    I found a red Shell V-Power hat in my collection. The hat is a Shell V-Power Nitro + on the front and on the side it says 2015 Launch Times Square to Los Angeles.The bill is autographed and I can't remember who by. Any guesses?

    That would be cool. I was checking out who was at the event and Marc Gene was there. I was checking out his autograph too. Hard to say for sure

    100% Mario, not even close to Marc Gene. I have his too and Marc has a large M and large G. Very nice autograph you have there.

    Have met and gotten Mario's sig on many occasions...I have a bottle of wine at arm's length here with the same sig!

    You can clearly see the twin "tt"s in the flourish, as well as his effort to always dot the "i"....

    I looked at some Mario autographs online and without a doubt it is his. Thanks for all the help. I will now make a note somewhere so I don't forget again. Although I guess as long as I remember this thread I should be good. LOL

    His car or yours? And did he take you for a spin?

    Thanks Barry!
    Hope all is well!

    That was right after purchase of #22641.
    Mario's Winery in Napa Valley, highly recommended.

    The car has been sold BACK to the Pacific NW, (it was a Ron Tonkin car) and a HUGE restoration!!
    So it's "back where it started" or at least not far away, with our member "arcticlighting"....

    I just mailed the personalized VIN key tag that Scaledetails makes, and some of the original pictures, of our purchase and epic drive home!

    6' 2" I wear skinny PUMA Drift Cats, and still fit in my remaining #22127

    During the restoration they took great pains to match the very bottom Factory Layer of paint.
    It came out hugely well, maybe the only one that color in North America, in the "early years"......a search on the "22641" and "rare color" should find that thread for you!

    Well still without sickness but this is all kind of scary!

    Trying to make it thru without selling TOO many toys!
    Had a bad bike spill lucky to have made it, so maybe that's a big winning play coming my way!
    truck that blocked my path was cited, and insured...

    We will see!

    There was this tall Georgia blond that met at F1, we had one lovely evening.

    She's a Device Rep and installs pacemakers in NYC.
    6' 2" at least, so keep an eye peeled for "Maybe Jennifer" as my iPhone tagged the number!!

    "Are you homeless? You had this same outfit on yesterday???
    "For the weekend don't you think the Team would give me THREE??"

    :D :D

    Her eyes got big at goodbye when I mentioned the plant I built for Sultzer Medica...Intermedics
