Impressions of a Ferrari 250GTO
#121
In 1966, I was at the Chez Club in West Hollywood to see Buddy Rich perform. I was a teenager at the time. A good friend of Buddy’s was in our party. She turns to me and says, “You ought to meet Steve. The two of you have the same kind of Ferrari.” I asked, “Steve who?” whereupon she leads me over to where Steve McQueen is sitting on a barstool waiting for Buddy to appear. He and I spent the next twenty minutes talking about the Firestone Indy tires we both had on our Berlinetta Lussos and other car-related topics. Attached is a photo of Steve and the Lusso he was driving that night, which recently sold for $2.31M.

I told myself tonight was the night to do my laundry.
I found this thread.
No laundry got done.
Thank you for the awesome stories. You have an awesome combination of growing up in a cool area, in a cool time period, with a cool hobby, and to top it all off - you are one helluva writer.
