Hard to believe it's been 39 years...

...from yesterday when this event took two close friends. Kenny was one of my pals who was once insistent: "You should meet this girl! You've soo much in common!" It was Mitsy. They had been high school classmates years before. Myron was my upstairs neighbor for a few years, he was the other Lotus owner in the apartment complex. I'd been part of his support team, helped field the F-A effort, I'd been both a salesman and a tech at that dealership as well. The 'mits and I had moved to Florida a couple years before the shunt.

Sorry for the loss of your friends. I imagine they both left quite a lasting impression. Way too young.

These tragic events follow those who survived for the rest of our lives.
On a better note, they passed doing what they loved.
My condolences to you and your wife, Doc.

Wow. Condolences.

 

[Trevor Triumph]

Sad.
T.T.

That Alfa is the balls.

That Alfa is the balls.

Tipo 33, "on loan" to a few dealerships, a showpiece to please the Alfisti. They'd removed the distributor. And if you don't think we scrambled around to find a suitable substitute, well....

Couldn't find one, much to our disappointment.

And in a bizarre "small world" happenstance, I'm connected to this.

I can see where you were tempted to get it going,& drive it.
Kinda like the time a guy left a Ferrari Daytona to detail.

The upside of that tragedy is that you have some great memories,
& your friends.
