That is a great car with a beautiful color combo.
I have a tip for you, a very serious tip. This is very similar to my own experience in acquiring mine but there is one critical thing you must do. This is a high performance car and even with lots of experience you may or may not have you must assume nothing.
By this I mean before you really get out there and enjoy it, repeat BEFORE, get it up on stands with the wheels off and from one end to the other, go through all the running gear, suspension, brakes, axles, front, back, middle, and made damned sure everything is tightened to spec and secure. Go through everything and paint mark everything for reference.
This will insure no unexpected surprises, some of which can destroy your investment and yourself.
Remember these are hand built cars, that bounce, vibrate, and may still be subject to human error.
It's cheap insurance and a great way to get to know it in detail.
