There were also two other Spitfires that Andy Mace and I bought together,
repaired and sold but I don't remember the dates. So there it is. 30 cars
and two wives (and WAY too many birthdays). Interesting that 45% of the cars
have been British. Proof positive of Lucas connections in my brain.
Of the ones that are gone I only wish I could have two back; the '56 Ford
Victoria hardtop (rose over black, V8, auto, very sharp) and the '66 E-Type
(if you need to ask why, you're hopeless.)
Did I forget any cars, Andy?
