Daddy never got nothin except a handshake and a $50 award for his invention...he did it while working for the US Navy...Oh and he got his paycheck....

It's a good story about Daddys younger Brother...he was a bright guy...and well on his way up the corporate ladder at 3M...he was almost assured to have been at least made the head of one of 3M's divisions...He was also quiet a collector of cars, boats and antiques...one of the other cars he had was a MB 300 Gullwing....

LOL... fair point...most of the time.

However my morning walk down the Kings Road at around 7.00am allows me to see numerous cars at speed...the gentlemen...sadly they are all guys, seem to view this nice road as a drag strip, I have seen a Carrera GT to 0-60-0 on this stretch..

To say nothing of the DB9 howling past...
From memory the Maser had carpets on the floor and I swearr I saw it move a 30mph...honest.
