...but I like it.


Don't worry he does mention that it wasn't an all original car to start with.

photo (29).jpgThis is one of my favorite cars. Here is a picture of my wife, myself and Jay from about ten years ago. A few minutes later it was doing triple digits, my TVR 2500M did its best to keep up.

Cheers,

Great photo and story Ian. I'm a bit envious that you got to see that beast up close and personal.

It is in Burbank CA, close to NBC. When he was doing the Tonight Show he would come out to greet the audience in his denim shirt and jeans with usually one or two big grease stains having just come over from the shop. It is a pretty amazing place, they do almost everything in house, and the cars get driven. He's a good guy, very knowledgeable on cars and loves to work on them. If I had his money my collection would be very similar.
