    I love that car. You also got a set of images from one of the best photographers in the business. Congratulations

    btw - Clearcoating it would be just dumb.

    John,
    nice article !

    I absolutely LOVE the photo image of it backed up against that vintage building; grass reaching up reluctantly to graze that perfectly patina laden chin ~
