    I got a tour at Canepa Design in Scotts Valley today. This might be old news for this board but if not I'll share. I was pretty impressed with the red 959 on the showroom floor. Then we went to the back and found seven more 959's. They're bringing the suspension up to modern spec on some of them. I better talk about the Ferrari. A beautiful F40 that they just spent $40k on body work. One more, they have the first Duesenburg made. It was made for the Dole (pineapple) family back in 1919. Jay Leno offered $25,000,000 for the car and they turned him down. If you're ever in Scott's Valley it's a must see. http://www.canepa.com/

    Our little Cobra club took a tour there last September. Did they take you to the back room then (beyond the work area)? Bruces 917's brings back huge memories of the old CAN-AM days!!!

    Odd, I thought one of the EB110's was sold...???

    I'm pretty sure his annual salary alone is in excess of the $25M....He's been doing this for years and it does not include his Las Vegas shows, etc...I'd bet he's got plenty of $ to do exactly as he pleases.
