thanks Ivan! a report on the shop tour NorCal
we toured a GREAT super secret shop today in Marin county (Northern California) and saw some wonderful stuff,including The (soon to be) World's Fastest Hudson.
i'm too dumb to operate a camera,but i saw several people snapping away,so let's encourage them to post some pictures.
it was great to meet a bunch of Hudnuts in the prescence of such historically significant vehicles,including several Grand Prix Bugattis,an Alfa Romeo 8C Superleggerra,and (my favorite) a Hispano-Suiza boat-tail special.
our host has a wealth of knowledge,equal to the task of answering very obscure facts off the top of his head.our bunch was well aquitted with automotive lore themselves,and i managed to learn quite a bit from all present.
BTW,if anyone is looking for a sweet 1952 Twin-H Hornet coupe,Ivan is looking for a good home for it,so he can concentrate on his Bonneville bound Pacemaker.
