Ok, guys - time for Wrist Scan! It's 'Driveway Week' - let's see . . .
. . . what's in your driveways, real or imagined. I graduated from high school in '74. If I could've afforded a new car then, it would've been a 4-speed 360 'Cuda. This lucky guy has one of 360 made in that last year of Plymouth's pony car production run....
For me it's..............
2 Toyotas, a Highlander and a RAV4, both Limited and AWD.. For imaginary, an Aston Martin.
Probably will still be the.............
Bell and Ross BR-123-92, can't seem to take it off lately,
My love for petrol was always with
Italians Not that I would mind Charger or Challenger or both in my drive way On other hand my friends have preference toward Germans in general Dream car...well..all cards down...Ferrari and one for you Art Alfa & Omega HAGWE dear friends ...
My philosophy of life: "Drive German, . . .
. . . eat Italian - you can't go wrong." When it comes to sporting cars, it's always been Porsche for me. As they say, "To each, his own." Warmest, Art PS - yes, I got the pun!
Great shots desr D!! I feel an Alfa looks ...
Awesome with any of those watches you show! Love the car brand and love the watches! Hagwe my friend!! Cheers! Abel
Ha! Revelation 1:8...
Your wit is matched only by the breadth of your knowledge, dear chum! Cheers, pplater.
Dear mate
You know what would be real revelation for me!? To see what's on your wrist this weekend This week WS just got added value with you joining us! Yours till heavens recede D
If I make it to the NYC Purists g-t-g next summer . . .
. . . will you pick me up from airport in the new Bimmer?
If you fly into Newark, yes.
If you fly into JFK...God bless you and keep you. I still want to know why you chose "Goat's Head Soup". And what do you know about next Summer that I don't know?
The '74 360 'Cuda of driveway dreams . . .
. . . and Goats Head Soup were released almost simultaneously in the summer of '73, when I was transitioning to my senior year of high school and could do fifty pushups in a minute flat, amongst other long-forgotten abilities and accomplishments. Those we...
Well, your description of the album is "spot-on", as Camilla Parker Bowles would most assuredly say.
If you would have come East this weekend you could have participated in GTG discussions. Perhaps. Maybe. Not sure.
No car here but a superb shot of a lovely watch...
... makes me feel we have a winner here! Hagwe! Abel
Thank you all.
I bought this watch shortly after my mother's passing in memory of her ... Simple and understated, yet elegant and sophisticated.
Lincoln land yacht! . . .
. . . way cool, Arie. Partial to Chrysler Imperials myself . . .
It was a blast to drive, and I remain a bit sad selling it. I miss the damn land yacht and the way it found its own way in negotiating corners.
But the new owner had way more love for it, so it went to a very good home.
The perfect blue to match the blued screws of my Breguet La Tradition... and the dial of my Chronomètre Bleu I’ll wear this weekend
Green friends are welcome of course This blue E-Type could be perfect too Best wishes Alkiro ...
E-types are arguably the most beautiful automotive design ever . . .
. . . and one could say the same for La Tradition . Have a good weekend, Alkiro! Art
That CB will be a perfect match with that beautiful Etype 👌🏻😘
Great pics as allways my friend 🤗
You got some of my dreams here my dear friend Alkiro!!...
... let me keep dreaming! One of them I feel I will fulfill... the others I doubt! I’ll be a very happy man with the Breguet anyway! Hagwe my friend!! Abel
What a color match !
Ok, lets call it a goal, if not reality yet 😀 Thanks for the wonderful blue pics Stefan
The goal would be the Jaguar not the Ferrari 😉
Thanks for looking. Best wishes Alkiro
How about a nice driver’s watch. The camellia’s are
in bloom and enjoying the cold winter weather. Best, Tim ...
With a driver's watch like that, there's gotta be . . .
. . . a driver's car in the driveway ;-) . . .
My ‘driveway’
Working on the old sets this week, we call these ones ‘choppers’. And on the wrist: Planning on hitting the pool after work. Enjoy the weekend everyone! ...
This is the recent re-issue, right, Harry? . . .
. . . Doxa's done right by the legendary originals, imho. And how cool is it to have rail cars in your driveway! You really should own a Railmaster ;-) . . .
Yes, this is my work!
I suppose it’s my driveway equivalent. I don’t have one of my own! I know, I’ve been thinking very hard about it. Now I’m driving trains I should have a Railmaster. Only problem is, I really like the larger movement with two barrels! I’m a really sucker f...
Yes indeed!
It is the reissue, and it’s beautiful. Such a cool watch for swimming in summer.
Roster Clerk
I’d like to post more about my job and the watch I while at work. Can’t have Mobile phones on though while on the job unfortunately.
Air-cooled goodness
1997 Carrera S. Last of the air-cooled 911s. Ocean Blue exterior. Cashmere interior. Factory Motor Sound package. Supple leather option. CD hi-if option. ...
Cool choice
As far as I know they’re not even naturally aspirated anymore! Perhaps a god pair would be last air cooled and last naturally aspirated... one can dream.
Thanks
Indeed, my C2S is the last air-cooled, naturally aspirated, 2 wheel drive 911. Arguably the pinnacle for that purist combination after 30 years of development. I think that's why these have caught the eye of collectors. Also, not too many made. I think th...
Wow, you make a good point
I think I’ll have to read up on this car. Did you guy it new? What a pleasure it must be to own. Sounds like this is a keeper for you!
I've owned it for about 12 years.
There is a lot written about this model. Cf Rennlist, Total 911 etc.
