Barrett-Jackson Car Search

Did anyone catch Car Search on Speed last night? They looked over a nice orignial(ish) 1968 911L. Some interesting commentary by someone who supposedly knew 911s (can't remember his name). Two statements this fella made which were pretty neat. One was the 911 was the best car overall, ever made. The next thing he said is that it was the only car that rolled off the assembly line where one could go to a fancy eatery in Beverly Hills and the next one to roll off the assembly line could go compete in Le Mans. Kinda nice "in a nutshell" statements and captures the essence of these cars for me.

I watched it briefly - I saw a Shelby go for $170,000.

I missed it, but they repeat those shows like crazy.

Love the comments! Thanks for the heads-up!

I don't pay much attention to the cars, but I'm in love with Darla!

Doug,
I know. Its really hard not to just look at her, um, blouse. Usually the wife is watching with me and usually says things like, "how do you like her shirt". I usually reply with, "I'd like you in that shirt", and then all is fine with the world.
