    Love the Aston, Robb. It's one of my bucket list cars. One of my buddies got a REALLY ratty one, and aside from being a total mess doesn't look much more difficult to work on than anything else. The parts cross reference is about like a 348 too. (knock sensors say ford on them, and cost $$$ in a box with wings, but are something silly, like, $17 from rockauto)

    Sorry to disappear mostly...

    It has been a crazy year with work on the road and it has been even hotter in AZ. It’s been over 100 even after midnight...

    Been very burned out on most things.

    Took the red 355 out way back in June for a very nice drive late at night.

    Will look forward to Halloween when we get all the cars out again.

    It’s kind of like a city under 9 feet of snow in January... but the polar opposite this time of year. You get the idea.

    Forza Ferrari.

    Not much different in the South. 95+ and humid. Took my CS to my secret road circuit recently for the 1st drive in a couple months.

    Oh how I remember those Phoenix summers but I really miss the Phoenix area, what a great place to live. The car culture there is so neat. The grand kids drove us back to the east coast and it is such a "wet heat" here. :)

    Well the north east had a very hot and dry July if any consolation.

    Perhaps where you are but here in central CT while it's been warm we have had a lot of rain. And it looks like rain or T-storms for most of this week too. But at the moment it only 66*.

    We're expecting 5+" of rain in the next couple of days. The monsoon last night was just the start.

    Work season winding down. Had a break with great weather and cars in AZ. Love this shot.

    Went over to see Rick at his new digs now that he moved from CA to Scottsdale. Great to have him nearby. We will get the Aston’s out for a photo shoot soon along with the Ferrari’s now that I actually have time to tinker.

    We took the 458 out for Italian food. Great car.

    Out for some pizza the other night and a 40 mile run to blow out the carbon cobwebs of summer. The gts top off is a great event...

    Upcoming items for the red F355:

    One Cat replacement
    Emissions
    Oil change
    Finally have time to nail down the Fob swaps
    Major service in 19
