These were at an exotic car dealer in St.Louis. I stopped by there to check it out. I ended up talking to the brother of the owner who told me that he used to drive a 79 128, and it was one of his favorite cars.
Anyway, the 275 is technically a 2 owner car with 13K original miles on it. It was purchased new by an old lady at Lindburgh cadi. Apparently they sold Ferraris too back in the day., This was teh 2nd one they sold. ANyways, she bought it and had ti for many years. SHe ended up bringing it back to the dealer and trading it becuase the clutch and ****er wer to much for her as she aged. SHe traded it for cadi. It sat at the dealer for a few years. When th owner got sick of no one buying it, he prepped it for storage and it sat in storage for decades. He eventuall gave it to his son. His son is a fool and had it repainted fromt eh original burgundy to what you see now. Apparently it is going to the pebbel beach auction, and they are gonna sell it.
I also loved seeing the 61 Jag. As you can tell in the background, there are all kinds of exotics there. None of the new cars did anything for me. I just love the old stuff. HTe new stuff all looks CAD designed. THe old stuff you can see the human influence in the lines.

LOL Im talking about beautiful lines and design concepts, when I drive a 128! Am I the onyl one that sees teh humor in that?
