Not sure if this is a '59 or '60's 'vette. Folks more knowledgeable than I can chime in.

Aldo, you got a McLaren?
Business is good.
Audi timing belts and DSG repairs = $$$$.

I am currently farm-sitting at my brothers place near Macon GA. As previously discussed in some thread (this one ?) he purchased a Jailbreak potentially from Bobby Stainless. It all adds up, “used” Jailbreak with under 200 miles at a place in a Nashville industrial park that specializes in similarly “used” Ferrari’s and Lamborghini’s. Sounds like Stainless Motors to me.
Anyway, this is the first time I have seen this thing, and it is incredible.
He and his wife are traveling and I am taking care of the farm. He left me keys to everything, but get this, the asshole only left me the valet key to the Jailbreak!
Does this call for dogshit under the door handles?
The 69 Camaro SS is more fun anyway IMHO, but it is currently undergoing a disc brake conversion, so it’s not drivable right now.

That SS is a beauty. Does it have a Hurst shifter, Holley manifold and Hooker Headers? IAE, I'm sure that car is tits!
It's a '60 according to the image hostQuote:

If you need an AMG shift knob, Digitaldrew can hook you up. I think his is the same vintage.Quote:

I always liked the look of this Merc, but it was prone to leaving the ground a lot.

Nah they tried too hard with that. The 280 is clean and simple, no gimmicks with a lot less chrome and stainless trim.Quote:

Instead, it was based on the wildly successful 2.5-litre straight-eight-powered 1954–1955 Mercedes-Benz W196 Formula One champion, with the engine, enlarged to 3.0 litres for the sports car racing circuit and designated "SL-R" for Sport Leicht-Rennen (eng: Sport Light-Racing). All were the work of Daimler-Benz's design chief Rudolf Uhlenhaut.
Possibly the most beautiful sounding cars ever.

I think it helps to go over things a few times as folks here have the memory of a goldfish.Quote:

That’s fucking rad. I have got to get to Goodwood one year.Quote:
