    “10 original cheetahs completed by Bill Thomas. 7 comp, 3 street. There is one untouched totally unrestored survivor from that original production run, and it is in my collection. The King Cheetah street car here has a very unique history and is obviously extremely well preserved as well. Good luck!”

    “When I first got the car, I was always under the hood or underneath the car, learning as I went, and it became the car my girlfriend — now my wife — and I took everywhere. A lot of great memories were made.
    Life moved on, and the car ended up parked for close to four decades. Recently we decided to bring it back to life, get it running again, and return it to a period correct state. It’s been rewarding to hear it fire up and drive it again after all those years.
    That said, my…”

    “This was the first car I ever bought new from a dealer when I was 20. I was driving a beat up old Ford F150 with bad linkage that I had bought for $150. The dealer offered a $5k of discount for anything you could push pull or drag in, so the Ford made his last journey.
    My father had a terminal diagnosis at the time and provided the remaining $10k needed to make sure his little girl would have a new car after he was gone.
    This car got me through those early years of having lost both…”

    “In 1960 as senior in high school I was a member of the Ecurie Ecosse Association. The team came to Watkins Glen to run in Formula Libre race. Went down to the pits to say hello and got invited to be a “guest pit crew member” for Sunday’s race!! I expected to stand in the corner out of the way! Big surprise I was tasked with carrying the pit signal board from the pits to edge of the track to signal Roy Salvadori driving the team’s Cooper Monaco!! Keep in mind no pesky waivers to sign for a…”

    “A tip for the seller or new owner: When I replaced the door seals on my E34 M5 I used the seals from an E39. At the time E34 door seals were NLA and the E39 ones were readily available. I had to shorten them a few inches, but otherwise they are a perfect fit.”

    “The 550 was, by and large, the end of the gated manual era at Ferrari and was the final model offered exclusively with a 6-speed transmission. Gearbox technology was advancing quickly as Scuderia Ferrari dominated F1, so when the updated 575M was introduced in 2002, nearly all of them came equipped with the F1 transmission. Only 246 575Ms were optioned with the manual gearbox, and its successor, the 599, saw just 30 manuals produced.
    The 550 is sleek, slippery, and sexy—a grand touring…”
