Great pics Mike! Didn't realize Lombard St is closed to traffic now. Glad I got to cruise if a few times. In the early 90s I rode my Yamaha FJ 1200 up HWY 1 to the motorcycle GP races at

wheel never touching the ground! Also remember watching Dan Gurney go through it in a Celica pace car full tilt boogie and taking a second at the right turn apex to smile and wave at the fans everytime he went by!
That Lancia has to be the lowest slung thing ever made!
