Re: What did I do with that car again?

Why don't I find things like this in my old stuff?

For those that may be interested in driving something like this, but lack the obligatory 5+ million pounds: I had been speaking to Gary Babineau (vintage indy car builder) about an Alfa 158/159 when life was a little less complicated for me. He had compiled the necessary measurements, and we were going to go with DOHC Alfa 4cyl engine; but as things panned out I ended up just being another "tire kicker". He does amazing work. Granted, it's not the real deal; but his work is still done with traditional methods. Back then (6 years or so ago) he wanted 85k. I still think about that car all the time...

I am sorry if this sounds like a shameless plug, the guy struck a chord with me enough that I haven't forgotten about him. Much like a couple of guys here on this forum have (you know who you are).
