    That is fantastic!

    Did you make some changes recently, or is it just the angle of the photo? Something looks different to me.

    Totally restored to Turin GP state from as she ran at MM. Completely re worked body.

    She's now as she was in 1947.

    What does it mean when you say "Our 002"? Just wondering what the number implies.

    That must be the difference. Honestly, I never liked the look of the car from the time you began this journey (MHO, of course).

    Now though; Che Bella Machina!

    What a difference! Small thing too, but the new darker red color is a really big deal for me.

    Congratulations on the results!

    Maybe PB/TQ/MH in 2013?

    Thinking back to your "should I or shouldn't I" heady days, I'm so glad it was you who bid at the right time, place, and definitely . . . price.

    I initially thought that he was asking about the plural "Our" rather than the 002.

    I'm assuming you are using "our" in the sense of magnanimously including your staff that restores and cares for your cars?

    I think you have a YouTube video of driving it in Italy too right?
