In 1988 I was working for a newspaper in Florida. We were doing a story on the Miles Collier collection, the center piece was the totally rebuilt 917PA.
The publicity flax I was working with had to take a call, he let me wander through the shops and look what I found.
I took a selfie long before anyone even called it that.

And 30 years later another selfie. thanks ChicagoPete

You've aged well!

Although it looks like the 914-6GT has shrunk a bit over the years, but I hear than can happen over the years sometimes! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Will you be taking your photog skills out to the Steve McQueen Car Show in Chino Hills this Saturday?

Cheers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

You know, when people ask me how long ago some event happened, I think of the number of years that pops into my head and then DOUBLE IT for my answer!

I like your pictures. Looking at them makes me realize that its true when they say that the more things change, the more they remain the same.

I was a docent at the Collier Museum when it opened. I was the youngest one by about 30 years. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
