    Ending with the only 3 Alfa B.A.T.'s in the world................ 5,7,9

    When I was an 18 year old kid (1967) I would visit BAT #7 (the blue one) as an old beat up primered car in a working class suburban garage in Van Nuys CA.

    ... and so it goes

    I've heard about the Blackhawk Collection but never been. Is it a private collection or a public museum? I see they sell cars on their website. Are these from the collection itself or is this just a sideline?
