    collector car market

    I have three boys and 3 "extra" cars. Two 68 Shelby's and the GT. I stated to the MRS that if I needed to sell them for the kids to go to college I would. They are more fun than a 529B anyway

    My old and new GT's at the Boston, MA. auto show

    I saw the Superperformance Car at Fabulous Fords in 2009 and and could only fit my knee and one leg in the door so I did the same P1075 setup with race decals on my Heritage. People ask, I say "Period Correct"

    Porsche 997GT3 RS vs Ford GT on track in Germany

    Awesome race video I stumbled across on Youtube. At about 4:00 mark the video goes inside the 997 cockpit and you can see the GT for 6 laps or so. I think something breaks on the GT on the last lap, he just slows on a straight. Awesome video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pn5gXzMlpmU

    Met Camilo Pardo today for the first time at LaJolla Concours

    I pulled onto the lawn today in LaJolla in my yellow 1968 Shelby GT500KR convertible and a few minutes later this judge walks over and starts looking at it and asks about the color. I start talking and look at his name badge and it was Camilo. So I pulled out the phone and showed him the...
