Le Mans Classic #3

Stuart asked for Ferrari 250's, here is a 250 GT Berlinatta, enjoy!

Cheers,
Pete.

LOL!

I looked at the pictures before I read your text, Pete, and sat straight up and said "That's a Berlinetta!"

Beautiful car, and it looks in real good shape. Do you know if it was restored, or preserved from the elements, any provenance information?

Wonderful color in the first shot, I might add. I really enjoy this angle and light.

Thanks.

Allan

Hey that was quick! Other than the "pilote" being a Belgian called Vincet Gaye, I don't know anything about this car; never seen it before. It looked in really good condition and was driven very, very hard!

Cheers,
Pete.

In these parts we're known for fast cars, fast food and fast replies!

Thanks.

These two are owned by a Swiss fellow called Traber; he was driving the one with the yellow nose.

Cheers,
Pete.

OK, just in case you like these rolling sculptures:

Ron,
Nice shots; I've got some Adler and BMW streamliners for you.... watch this space.

Cheers,
Pete.

Thank you, Pete. They are gorgous, and I'm glad the last one made it here from so long ago on the other Forum. In #1 I'd be nervous that the 250 would eat me if I were that Lotus 11.

Wow Ronald! 618 is a terrific shot - I can only dream of results like that. Perfect.

hm1912 · 07/19/06, 12:07 PM

I second that, "618" is an amazing shot!

The second frame is just amazing.

Thanks Pete.

Ed.
