Thanks. It's definately one of a kind. I've been asked for details on the build but unfortunately all I have is the Excellence article as the car didn't come with a build sheet and KMR doesn't have one on file.

So if by Boeing you will be traveling from San Jose airport to Monterey by rental car? That sucks, the spring up and down the Monterey, Carmel and central Cali coast is amazing in a Porsche!

That is the plan. I'm travelling with 3 other guys. We're renting a motorhome in San Jose so if you thought the drive was bad in a rental car.....*lol*

Hmmmm....but if I were to buy a car in California I could drive it home......tempting.........

Well the only cure for the motorhome blues is to purchase a keg right after you get it and put it in the shower on ice! This is a great way to spend the 1 1/2 hour drive to Monterey and Carmel area and an even better way to check out the Historics! Im in for sure if this is the case!!!!

Well it's official. We've rented the motorhome and lined up the airline tickets. All that's left is getting the event tickets and ordering the beer. Laguna Seca here we come!

Hey! We are going to go to the holy trinity this year too: Concourso Italiano, Historics and Pebble Beach. Even my wife and teenagers are coming along.

Sounds like a drive to Laguna might be in order?

I have been in negotiations with the future buyer this last few days, contracts have been signed and deposits are being taken. Obviously still in my garage but looks like she might be loaded onto a transport truck in the next few weeks! I will take my last picture of her when that day arrives!
