Did you get to meet Jim Glickenhaus? I heard he's a super nice, total car guy.

Funny you ask. I see a guy wearing a " P4/5 Competizione" jacket, so I walk over and tell him cool jacket and how much I like the idea behind the car. We talk about the P4/5 for a minute and I notice this guy knows WAY too much about the car. I asked "do you know Mr. Glickenhaus? to which answered "well, I've known him about 62 years." Facepalm. I apologized profusely for not recognizing him but he had on sunglasses and a hat. We talked a little more about the show and then we went our separate ways. Yeah, nice guy for sure.

I hae a similar story about CJ Wilson, pitcher for the Rangers (Now the A's) and his Porsche Carerra GT. Super awesome man!!! I've talked to him on F-Chat a few times and even had him email me high res pix of some of his cars. Saw him on Google Chat once and just sent him a message, he responded and we chatted for a couple of minutes. Very cool!

Yep, Jim is a great guy....I was just reading about his 'P 33' project today, inspired by the Alfa 33 Stradale.

*EDIT...great pics!
