It is fully operational; I saw it drive away.
There were some old Porsches. I really liked the silver one.
There were a couple of old Jaguars, a beautiful XK-150 (I think), and an early XKE set up for racing.
There was a Ford Cobra with the standard Shelby racing stripes.
There were several old sedans that I couldn't identify, but I could picture Bonnie and Clyde using. These didn't have bullet holes!
I liked this beautiful white roadster, also not identified. If I had a better command of French, I could probably found out what some of these cars were. I can ask questions, but it is a sure thing that I won't understand the answers.
I had an office mate at NASA, Bob Dunning, who always drove a Citroen. There was an old DBV in the lot, but it left before I took pictures. A DS-19 in good condition drove in late. This was the car Bob drove. He liked to use the air suspension to raise and lower the car when he was stopped at a stoplight - to the delight of kids in neighboring cars.
I'll stop this post for now. I still have some catching-up to do, and we are going to Annecy, in the French alps, for a day trip tomorrow.
A bientot.
Loos like a cool show!
