Hi Stan - thanks so much for your comments! I've definitely been to your website - it appears the quality of your work is well deserving of the trust the owners of those cars put in your hands. I'll echo the encouragement for you to share more images when you have the time. Like many others here, I can't get enough of these wonderful cars!

Peloton, I will try and dig up some more pictures of the LM and the F1's which we have worked on, but for now I will leave you with these pictures (taken on my cell phone) from my personal collection, which I assure you are of a completely different chassis then the ones which have come through our shop. I won't reveal the owner of this one, however I'm sure it won't take you long to figure out if you don't know already. I've never really stopped to think about it, but I've actually been lucky enough to experience 5 different F1's up close.
The silver car with the red interior is chassis #024 and belongs to Gary Schaevitz. The second F1 under the tarp in his garage should be #045. We've exchanged a couple of emails over the years. He's a rather nice gentleman and the F1s are just the tip of the iceberg in his collection from what I understand.
Pretty safe to assume that this photo from 0-60mag was taken that same day:
Thanks so much for the new pictures!

Another interesting fact is that he and Gary live on the same street making for a total of 5 F1s between them when all of Ralph's F1s are in NY.
