Car Guys Who Lunch

[MartynL]

Forum regular Gary Jean, AKA, Mr. Sartorial Splendor, has been elected Dress Code Enforcer, Sarasota Cafe Racers. We felt that someone with impeccable taste should be elevated to an executive position within the organization. It takes a real man to wear those sneakers. Go Gary!

Looks (ahem) good Gary. I see the GT is wearing new shoes too.

 

[Xcentric]

Check out the psychedelic babe. Somehow I missed her. The 60s are happening here. She's obviously coming on to the guy playing pocket pool, because she thinks the GT is his. I think it's a her, but my tits are better.

Sinovac, let me count the thousands you have cost me.

Marty, I have to find my chart of age vs. don't give a f#$k and post it. I'm sure you can relate.

Must be a Florida thing :facepalm::biggrin

 

[Xcentric]

In retrospect, the socks are a fail.

Can't find the chart I was looking for, but this is a corollary.

Fan City. Cool!

 

[Ed Sims]

Hey Xcentric - If you remember the sixties, you weren't there!

Gary, I can relate to charts & graphs. You are a good sport. Here's a nice shot of the best looking car at our lunch!

[bonehead]

I agree. That 911 Targa is spectacular. But that red thing is in the middle of your shot

 

[Brombear]

Really love the 250 Cabriolet but that Kaiser is really special ... look at those wonderful doors and those gorgeous rear lights and and and. The only other car I know of that has also unusual doors is the BMW Z1 from the 80ies.

 

[Vince H]

That's rough they're blasting your kicks Gary. I say the next time come dressed in a full tailored suit with the GT40 Cons just to show your Indie Street cred!
Vince H

 

[Xcentric]

That's right Vince. They are just envious, because they are stuck back in the woe is me, looks are everything low quality of life phases.

See this guy? The perfect example of not giving a shit.

 

[Vince H]

No doubt. Freddie would strut those bad boys. (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)

Is it me, or does the Ultima have 5 screws supporting one exhaust bezel and 4 on the other?
Asymmetry bugs me!

 

[MartynL]

Gary, think you should adopt Henry Ford II's mantra: NEVER COMPLAIN; NEVER EXPLAIN! Just do it.

Good eye. I didn't notice it. We will get to the bottom of that at the next lunch.
