This is Peter Vack's quote from Pat's memorial article in Veloce Today. The Abarth that he's making reference to being 3,000 miles away was the Ghia bodied car out of Maryland, the other two Allemanos that we had, one coupe and one spider, Pat had and brought with him from Michigan:
"...During the Great Years of Exportation, 1985-1991, I would find a rare Alfa or Abarth on the east coast, only to learn that somehow, Braden had already been there and done that despite being 3000 miles away. He was always a bit ahead of the rest of the pack; most of us literally followed in his footsteps..."
I'll see if I can find you a page reference in the Abarth book with the picture, it will be a while before I can scan it or a picture of the car, though.... as I said it was ugly, primer grey.
