RE: Biba's '60 Alfa Spider Veloce pages

["TJ Noto" <tj@domain.elided>]

Biba,

I am ALWAYS compelled to do so.......especially when the owner did the
work themselves, which is very rare these days.  Among the most
incredible stories I've ever seen/heard was that of a special
competition built Abarth Coupe that I saw at the Concorso Italiano last
year at the Quail Lodge.  The car had been stored in a building that
caught on fire and the floor above it had collaped on to the top of the
car.  The body looked like a crushed aluminum can, and yet it was
rebuilt to one of the most stunning levels of finish I've ever seen.  I
used nearly a whole Memory Stick making pictures of it.  There are a few
images of it in my image bank on the Cowpoke Racing website if you're
interested.  If you want more, let me know, I'll be happy to share.

Regards,
TJ
