Several Audi R8s, too many to show here, but one special RS7










The Crazy - A 65 Ford with a Cummins diesel - It was a real "puffer" when it pulled in but I couldn't get a shot of it:

WHY????? That driver should wear a mask when driving so no one knows his identity.

Hi,

I'm really for freedom of speech.
There's no arguing about beauty.
Also, any personal taste is completely free.

But too much, is too much. LOL


The conversion is certainly not easy. And apparently well done. So, respect for the work.


Best regards

Stenzel

From what I understand on the One-77, there were 77 made, they were all sold by invitation from AM. They were priced in BP, but in USD it was something like a $400,000 DP and $1,000,000 final when the car was built. All 77 sold, of course. One recently sold for $3.35M.

I think the last one of 77 was delivered in 2012. The frame was carbon monocoque; 7.3L V12 built by Cosworth. They took out the iron sleeves and plated the bores (similar to the AMG 4.0L) which bumped the Ls. The aluminum body panels were all hand formed. The weakness and in lots of AMs is the crappy Graziano trans.

Thanks for posting these photos. I live in a pretty small community where cars and coffee are 4 911's, 10 vettes, and 25 mustangs.

NP, I enjoy everything cars and have been attending this CC for over 15 years now.

The CC is from 7am to 10 am. There are 400 spots. You can come/go as you please so the time isn't fixed. By 8 am all the spots are full and then there is a steady stream of cars that circle the street waiting for a spot to open. They also create probably 50 more spots where no parking spot exists, just to get more cars to stop driving..LOL. The Camaro on 32s is parked in a no parking place created for more cars and they put me right next to him. They also have a DJ there that starts spinning very loud music starting about 7:30.

I usually get there at 6:30, park and start taking pics, so some of the first few it still looks dark this time of year and empty. By 8:30 I can sometimes have 200 pics by then, I only post about 10 or 15 of unusual stuff, and try not to repeat cars from past months (like my own). I never make it to 10am and usually give my spot up by 8:30 or 9.

Here is an example a little later when the spots are full and these cars are looking including the boat which I didn't get, but it was there.
