I saw this Ford GT40 roadster prototype yesterday at the RM Monterey Auction. One of three surviving, I believe. Somehow, I ended up on the lot containing all the cars, not behind a fence like the people who paid admission. I just sort of walked on and no one stopped me...Anyway, this was a super cool car and I'm sure I'll see many more!

That gt40 was insane! Did you seen the Vector and the Tucker there too?

no, I wish I did though. There were some areas with admission checkpoints that I didn't try to get through. I'll see a tucker at Gooding today though!

sure, what time are you going to Goodings? I'm at the Del Monte shopping center cars and coffee drooling on a Hellcat Challenger right now, and I'm going to go to the Tour D'LeMons around noon.

I was planning on going to gooding around 5:00, so I can take a few pictures before they start rearranging everything at 6. After that I'm going to stay for the whole auction.

Well, the way it works is that they leave the cars the way they are, but move the ones that are going to be up for auction soon. So 90% of the cars will still be there at 7. And they're still available for viewing.
