Tricks that old racers get up to after retirement

My sainted sister reminded me the original saying was “CLEANLINESS IS NEXT TO GODLINESS” but she is a tad more religious than me .
Spent the day fixing ———-machines——-tools ——-hookey Rolex’s —- broken concepts ——-etc
Did find a long forgotten clock—-its actually two in one ——will make a nice centrepiece for the next concept !!!
Wasn’t such a daft idea after all Roy.
Anybody want a “ROLEX DAYTONA 24 hours WINNER” wrist watch ???????????
Has to be worth $500. Opened it up and it does have the right perpetual movement ——right weight —all the bells and whistles .
I swopped it for a $500 concept——- well you make your choice and takes your chances — life would get tedious otherwise .

If its a genuine rolex it should be worth a lot more than $500.

No one seems to know the exact price of that particular vehicle !!!!! Suffice to say you would be looking at the thick end of around £2,000,000. With an 18 month wait !!!!!!!!
Do have a visit planned to see GMA before long.

...i think gene said he was looking at one of these to replace that old piece of junk benz...;)...

If thats “THE BARRETT -JACKSONS” you should be able to pick up a nice FORD GT 40 or even a half tidy SHELBY COBRA for a quite reasonable exorbitant price !!!!!!!!!

What is the price of a custom version without the windshield wiper being mounted in the middle of the windshield?
So, my vision is clear of the distraction.

I revealed my social-economic status. If I was in a higher echelon of financial stature, then I would be like Fujimo and know its removable.

However, I will go out on a limb and say, that this vehicle does not have a rear platform for Gene to eat his lunch.
