Shucks - ran out of space the other day...

Thought I'd share the cool photo. We're expanding our warehouse, so we had to scrunch everything together in "the showroom".

Note the newest arrival - the return of 106b from the UK, fully restored and ready-to run!

Great that there are people like you with the means and desire to restore and run these historic cars.

Thanks.

If you keep buying cars, pretty soon you're going to need a full-time guy to keep them all running.

That was a pretty quick turnaround on 106b... what ever happened to the "other" chassis?

When do we get to hear about the MIT car hiding in the back?

Awesome collection. I know I have ordered enough parts to pay for a small part of that.

We are all jealous.

I stopped by the will-call desk the other day, please don't tell me I missed out on all this if I had just walked around the corner or something, haha.

Thanks for sharing, it's good to see it's being spent wisely

After all, this collection isn't possible without the continued patronage of all us forum members and other enthusiasts of the like.

nice collection.
Since you're out of space I'll pm u my address and you can park any 2 at my house but I need keys so I can sweep under them every day and then right back into the garage.

If you cleared them all out, you could probably fit a very long dragster in there diagonally!

Easy fix - who needs sofas when you can sit in a race car?

Quite jealous, but also inspired. I hope that one day my business might also yield me a similar garage. Well done.

Hired someone excellent this year - Casey Gervig, who used to work nearby at Callas Rennsport!

It's been in the UK for about 2 years - time flies when you get older, huh?

I thought I had a post on here about that, but I can't find it. I'll have to post something in the near future!

You kindof have to ask, and then they usually only let people in the back with an escort, sometimes me - if I'm not on the phone or pacing around the office...
