    Great photo Jim, one question, you have probably answered before. How does it feel switching from Left Hand Drive to Right Hand Drive on your cars?

    It's something you have to be aware of. Dino for example is rt hand drive but left hand shift.

    Before I set out I run through the gears and move from the brake to the throttle and back several times just to make sure I know by feel what I'm driving. It's not a huge issue just something you have to be aware of.

    Nice!

    I'm really not up on the '50's USA cars but it looks like a Bel-Air (I could be wrong). When my parents met they both had Chevy Bel-Airs and those cars always evoke the feeling of love as my parents are now going on theit 56th year together.

    It's pretty difficult for me to imagine you as a passenger :D

    P.S.
    I love the "il quadrifoglio" stamp on your Alfa !

    In that view, it's as if the Bel Air is the long range bomber with one heat seeking missile under each wing. :)

    I was in Manhattan last week for a conference and I can see why you'd need armament to get through that mess.

    I like how you think good doctor but I see room for farrrr more than that.

    The mind wanders thinking of the possibilities. AR T33 Stradale, TZ2, etc, etc.
