Album: 1971 Maserati Ghibli SS.
Look what I found!! A completely original, 1971 MAserati Ghibli SS with very low mileage. She is in fabulous conditioned. However, we will of coarse, make her pristine. The SS version Ghibli's were the larger 4.9 liter engines with increased horsepower, larger wheels and a re-designed dash layout. These cars are quite rare...only 220 Ghibli SS coupes and 25 Ghibli SS convertibles were ever built for the world. We will finish all interior work making it brand new. We will also"freshen" the engine bay and perfect all body panels so there all no imperfections and all body panels are perfectly smooth. Adding wire wheels will complete the package. Check back to watch her progress.

Audi was in the process of buying Lamborghini and all production was down. This car now puts out 680 H.P. and has a top speed of 202 MHP.

1973 V-12 XKE Jaguar Roadster (convertible). This one of kind XKE roadster was purchased from a 50 car museum (original owner) after 31 years! The car had not having been started in over 15 years, so the new owner had to completely go through the engine and all mechanical components to ensure it to be road ready. Interestingly, very little replacement of original parts had to be made. Outside of a new gas tank and all belts and rubber parts, the car remains totally factory original ! Even the paint and interior is how she was delivered some 32 years ago. One of the automobile industries crown jewels of design, beauty and speed.

Album: Aston Martin Vanquish
My new prize. This Vanquish is one just over a 1000 Vanquish's made. Production will stopped forever after the last 90 2006 models have been produced. The Supercar for Aston Martin, the Vanquish is a 520 H.P. / 425 ft lbs. (torgue) car capable of the "sacred" 200 MPH limit.( at an 8000 rpm redline). Considered the "Gentlemen's" exotic, the Vanquish is as luxurious as it is fast. Made famous by James Bond himself in the movie "Die Another Day", the Tungsten Silver exterior is matched perfectly with a medium Blue & Silver (2 toned) leather interior. This car is fully optioned with satellite navagation, intergrated cell phone, 19 inch- 12 spoke wheels, Premium 1200 watt stereo system, heated seats, F-1, 6-speed Transmission (that can be switched over to a completely automate transmission), back up sensors, and a SIlver leather headliner. The original owner of this car was the famous quarterback, Cordel Stuart, of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Given to Cordel by the NFL as a signing bonus in December of 2001, Mr Stuart drove the car only 1600 miles . He traded the car to a dealer, Gram Hill, for a new Bentley GT. Its second owner kept the car in Lighthouse Point, Fl. for the next 4,000 miles, all while stored and pampered in an A/C controled environment. She now belongs to me and will live out a pampered life for as long as I am around.

Album: 1971 Pontiac 455 H.O. trans Am Last updated 3-2-08
A Car that defied convention. Shaker hood and engine.Open fender air scopes / extractors. Front air dam / rear spoiler. Wheel flare /air deflectors. And everything mentioned was funtional and had dramaticalloy positive effects on the cars performance. It just so happened, it also made the car "gorgeous" ! And did I mention...FAST! Enough torgue to pull a house. Enough horsepower to bake off the rear tires between stop lights. (oh yea...with the A/C on !) The '71 was really the first year of production, even though a handfull of this new "F" body design were built in 1970 with a 400 engine (not a 455 H.O.). Only 980 of these beauties were built in '71 and a only a hand full of these were Automatics, as is this car. Bought 19 years ago by 2 Brothers , it has been a love interest between them. Through those 19 years, they have shared her beauty and speed affectionately together...hince her tag "Brothrs". Outfitted now with custom made wheels and tires, the original honeycomb wheels are still in storage only to see daylight for those fortunate few that get to she her when she comes out for car shows or a cruise down the bays coast line!

Finally the new building is done. I have moved the cars inside, hung the art , install the cinema and sound system and took a step back and said "Pinch Me"!! I think I am in Heaven. A Dream come true. Can't wait to finish restoring my 1971 Trams Am 455 H.O.. She is all painted and is back with my mechanic to begin finish assembly. Can't wait. The build of my 1967 Shelby Mustang "Eleanor"is progressing. The fuel injection/ N.O.S. system is completed. Look at the pictures on the last 2 pages of the Eleanor section. Note how the fuel injection system and the N.O.S. system are combined together as one. WOW. Valve covers are being shipped down for the "wrinkle" red paint application. This Eleanor engine will be quite special Custom built and designed. It will be the only one of its kind in the world.Boosting 700 H.P. normally aspirated, the "kickin" it up to 1000 H.P. when you add the 300H.P. of Nitious. A beast...maybe I should put wings on her cause she is going to "fly". They will finish my collection...For now! Enjoy the cars, but also enjoy the great artwok on the walls that were painted by some of the automtive industries greatest artist. !
