I saw a bunch of cars... But the forum was down so I didn't attempt pics.Large, Medium, MiniMax, 36" Blackstone

This showed up in my driveway this afternoon:
Not really exotic you might say but it was a rental from the Avis Rental agency at Orlando International Airport. Buddy of mine flew down from Massachusetts and the rental agent told him it was all they had left. I feel real sorry he has to drive around in the thing.Ubi panis, ibi patria.

The owner is a firm believer in enjoying his acquisitions without much regard for keeping them in showroom condition. It’s a different approach than I would take, but then again, my sports car spent a lot of time sitting in the garage back when I had one. 🙃Ozzie_Isaac said:Just noticed @GrateEggspectations that it was 3.5C. That owner is an adventurer! Risking that with snow on the ground and ice in the air. -

Thanks for the article. I remember those LSR duels of the '60s. Great times.

Awe man. As a kid I loved reading about his exploits. I wasn't alive during the golden era of LSR, but reading about it after the fact was still amazing.dbCooper said:Craig Breedlove has passed at age 86.

Spotted this as I was just pulling up to the pump at Costco.

I’ve posted this car in the past, but I gave it a wash for a friend today.

@GrateEggspectations - is that the car that needed the major shop repairs ?Quite a ride right there.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. CHEETO (aka Agent Orange) makes Nixon look like a saint.

Yes. It has to take a trip to Montreal shortly, as we don’t have a local Ferrari dealer in Ottawa. When the engine heats up, sensors seem to put it in “safe mode,” where it slows to a crawl - supposedly, in order to protect the engine. It’s going to be dealt with in the coming weeks, I think. I wouldn’t want to see the bill for that repair.lousubcap said:@GrateEggspectations - is that the car that needed the major shop repairs ?Quite a ride right there. -

Washed older sis’ today. They both need waxes, but for me, that’s easily a 4+ hour endeavour, so another day maybe.

Lol. “Older sis” relative to the Ferrari F12. Same owner for the two. But I now see how my post was confusing. The apostrophe was meant to single the contraction of “sister”; not possessive.JohnInCarolina said:

@GrateEggspectations That M5 sure looks like your BIL is taking advantage of your expertise. Sweet colour (nod).

Good eye and memory, but this M5 is a neighbour’s. My B-I-L did have a very recent blue M5, but he got rid of it when he acquired the (previously-pictured) GT3 late last fall.lousubcap said:@GrateEggspectations That M5 sure looks like your BIL is taking advantage of your expertise.

Do you own a detailing service? From a technical standpoint, do you have soft water for your garage water? I had an acquaintance who had soft/heated water and multiple filters for his garage water.GrateEggspectations said:Helped a neighbour shine up this gal this aft.I would rather light a candle than curse your darkness.
