Great pic
The Miura is as elegant as the LM is chonky.

Interesting that the LM002 is much more rare than the Muira (if we include all Miura variants)...I’ve also read they’re a nightmare to maintain.

Edit:
Spell check doesn’t like Miura

Not surprising

Here’s something you don’t see very often...Jensen Interceptor rolled thru our shop today.

If you haven’t heard of them...it’s a compact British car with a factory Dodge 440 engine.

This is a stunningly preserved, mostly-original example.

I'm too fat for the car but I like the white Kenworth in the background.

Their (no longer “our” since my contract ended) fleet of trucks is immaculate, all company owned with a ton of money put into the sleepers.

Keeping the drivers happy is a lot of work but it pays dividends.

It's at $100k right now.
The auction has 6 days to go...

That is badged as a Shelby Super Snake which is an actual 750 HP truck. Only 150 of them to be produced. So the question is does it only have the badges or does it have the stuff to be the real thing? The Super Snake is a road only truck.

Damn that engine compartment is stuffed. Good luck changing the water pump.

You should get it and bring it to the next rabbit hunt. We'll have Younggun bring his .50 and see how well it repels it.

Only if I get to be inside it when he does...

Well, you know he would insist.

It would probably withstand the hail better too.

I still have over a month yet to get my car repaired. I didn't have as much damage being parked under that mulberry tree.

Looking pretty good for fifty years old. The GTO was shipped to a dealership in Homestead, Florida in July of 1969. Although, there have been a few changes made since then!

I had a 1969 GTO "Judge" in High School. My dream car. Worked my butt off to get it and keep it up but it was more fun than the law allowed. I so wish that Pontiac had survived and that they would have done a retro that was better than the Aussie car they tried with.

My buddy has an orange one that looks like a Judge. Its not even close to stock. He shows it and has won some awards with it. I think he goes in the "Modified" division.

My first real job was for a company called AMCI that, at the time, was owned by Jim Wagners.

He’s known as “The godfather of the GTO” and worked with John DeLorean to bring the car to market.

Interesting dude...his car collection was off the hook, and included the most famous muscle cars, many with delivery miles.

Some of his history:

The last of his cars went to Mecum earlier this year:
