    Anyone have a F5000 car?

    Thanks Johan. It has got also a great provenance and a complete/clear history line. When I bought the car I got a huge file with it, which included the original hand written set up notes from the first owner, canadian privateer Roger McCaig. I love it. Really a work of art. JP

    Anyone have a F5000 car?

    Cliff I do have a Formula 5000, a 1969 McLaren M10 A, chassis # 07.

On the other hand, I think I would feel...

    An engineer looks at Santa.

    Pete, I know now why we have the Three Kings in Spain instead of Santa... And we have our toys delivered on the night of the 5th of January which gives them some more time. But at the end I guess they have to use some of that magic to accomplish the target! JP

    Original Race Car Transporters

    Yes James, I think the one in my pictures is the one sold at Barret Jackson. Then I saw another one in Auburn, IN this summer when I went for the Kruse Auction.

    Pedal box: Work of art

    Mike, The pedal box in the SPF is just fine for the car as Rick says. In my case the accelerator pedal is a bit unstable with a little play on the sides but I do not know about other cars, it might be just fine.

    Original Race Car Transporters

    I always liked the idea of having one of these, but I am happy every time I get closer to make the dream real, common sense comes back. I guess owning one of these is a nightmare. And probably the most sensible way to have one is as decoration in the garage, just static. Some more here:
