Hobby, prices and people

Would someone please tell Carroll Shelby to put his sweater on the correct way next time he steps to the podium at BJ.

Someone needs to send him a copy of Car Guy Etiquette.

The cars with good pedigree will always bring solid prices. Limited production, high performance, good paperwork, original components are the cars that are still in high demand. I just got done putting a new clutch in my 70 L78 car and took it out for a drive today. Wow, it's so much better to drive now that I want to take it out again tomorrow! I hate the prices that some of the cars/parts sell for, but if the values on the cars didn't go up, then nobody would be getting these top notch restorations done because they would be a losing proposition. Whether you drive your car or just enjoy showing it, it doesn't matter because it's your car to do whatever you want. You can tell a real car guy just by talking to them.

Dick......Pa-leezzzeee.

You know the stereo-type I'm trying to describe........you've seen them yourself!

As for Carroll Shellby, we talk from time to time. He was a part of my son's leukemia fight before he passed. He's right in line with Jay Leno and a whole hellava lot others who can wear their sweaters or anything else for that matter, and be car guys.....
