PS cars for Turin are almost ready, only details to be done

Very nice Phil, very nice!
Hey, I hear the guys from Turin are meeting at Ezio's tonight to test their cars! I think they are on a war path
Me, I have nothing to wear so I won't come to the Vintage meeting.

That's ok, if they are anything like Itlalians usually are in a war they will be going backwards

Actually when those guys race they are very often in front, are'nt they Phil?

Maddin, have i got this right, from your post you
are saying the rosso collection has been broken up?.
I went to see it about 3 years ago and remember the Alfa spiders.
There where also 2 Talbot "tear drops" have these been sold also?
Ill have a rumage among the boxes and find the photo,s and post a few.
Some nice looking cars for turin there lads, best of luck.
cheers

yes it has been broken up...i don't know the whole story in detail but the collection was originally to be transferred to brussels to join an existing collection.this obviously never happened...lots of cars appeared in auctions over the past few months which means the rosso bianco collection with all it's absolutely unique cars will never be seen again....
there were heaps of one offs and rarities which will most likely be stored away in some climatised garages of private collectors (or should i call them speculators) for the next 200 years.

in the late 80's the german motor klassik magazine had a 3 part series with pictures of all cars in the museum...absolutely amazing what had been carried together over the years...
i was living in germany for 31 years,80 km away from aschaffenburg and have NEVER been there...

would love to see some of your pics....

cheers marty

Here you are Marty,they are photo,s of photo,s as

Im glad you asked for these as i thought i had lost the pics of Hub Habets rally track
but they where in with these shots, a reminder of my trip to he and his good lady wife.

Sorry for the ramble and hyjacking of this post, so back to Turin, any more photo,s of the
cars?
