Best of Show Winner is a 67 Ferrari

November 3rd 2009 10:04
67 Ferrari best of show




Hardly a vintage but still very collectible. Ferrari is close to everyman's heart.


This one won the show at Hilton Head but there were other categories for the rest of them.

I wouldn't mind adding one of these to my little collection. Just one at present. Things have been so hectic on the farm, we seem to be rolling in funds and hard pressed to get it all spent.

Mother has bought two mares with their foals, one boy one girl and they are half siblings sharing the same father, and is he a prize stud. Mother intends to race them of course but they are very young at present.

We are both very excited, Mother is the good rider and I am the not so good punter, but you all know that story.

But back to collectible cars and I'm really mostly after vintage, but the show must go on with the farm and we've been flat chat.

This bright little number caught my eye so I thought I'd share it with you.

"Each year we have a focus on one European country's cars. This year was Britain. Next year will be Germany and then Italy the year after. We are trying to bring together a broad spectrum of clubs to make it interesting for everyone, the exhibitors and the public. Most car shows tend not to have a broad spectrum and focus on certain types of cars - Hot Rods, European, etc.,"

So that is what that show is all about, worth while keeping an eye on I think.

Enjoy the hot little yellow number, it's a change from red so popular with ferrari owners and there will be more about cars in my next post.

Volt on track for end of 2010

November 2nd 2009 13:31
volt GM





The competition IS keen, even in this neck of the woods, but the USA is the biggest competitor of all ( i.e. until China takes over)


General Motors Co. CEO Fritz Henderson told Michigan members of Congress that the automaker must increase market share and said the Chevrolet Volt is on track for production in late November or December 2010.


How much?


Well may you ask, your guess is as good as mine, but stay tuned to fobzy your little farmer on line.

By Jove, Jim, you must have thought you were the ants pants or the bees knees or something. Your fast car, ah, what memories it brings.

It's so big it looks like the one "that got away" that you're always boasting about James.

Yes, they're first class crooks, after all, aren't they Michael, not just second class thieves.

Roll on the second crash.

Undoubtedly tough, my good punk, but gad you're a hard fellow to find nowadays, you flashed by and it's taken ages for me to find you again.

These crises are devastating and the loss of human life so tragic, and all I worry about is cars.

I stand, humbled.

Seems like you've got your wits about you here, wil, old pal, and a nice little income producer attached, unfortunately I don't want to go to the US or I might have been able to make a bit more for you.

It's easy to see the smart one around here.
