I was not on twitter, but a mate put me onto this...
They post daily race pics, like this one... Worth a look.... Tony http://i800.photobucket.com/albums/y...52BEF9E3DF.jpg |
If only they knew that one day the contents of that garage would be worth 100M+ !!!

I love the details
CS t-shirt The cop wandering through The hacksaws - tools all over the place The state of the art drill press The GT40's up the back Great photo |
Just a magic part of time in motor racing history, which, we will never see again.
A kind of innocence and expectation and people doing it because they loved it more than any financial gain to be had. :) |

Well spotted Craig, the comment on Twitter is:
@classicracepics: The Shelby American facility at the Los Angeles airport, 1965. In the foreground is the first 427 Cobra. Photo: LIFE http://t.co/8SyX13JJ6W |
It came out with a super rare alloy block 390 FE. So what was a used/modified race car worth when Shelby offloaded it...?
http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...ftinvoice1.jpg It's worth millions now :) |
I just luv that Gulf GT40 pic. always have. cheers Gregg
