If he could not or would not do this, I would deduct points. In MY opinion, a car should be restored as close as humanly possible to the way it left the factory, and the owner should be willing to provide the documentation. Many people who "restore" cars are simply to lazy to spend the time and do the research on THEIR particular car, so they "adapt" what looks to be the generic style based on the majority of pictures they can easily find. As you are aware, these cars are basically a series of "one-offs", and no two are absolutely identical. There are a few people who do bother to make sure that things are correct, but far from everyone. In the case of Armin's ex-Scuderia Ambrosiana giulietta sprint lightweight veloce, there were some things he did as HE prefered, in spite of all the research I did, such as adding the Borrani wire wheels...

I believe the collection is owned by Peter Sachs, and the fees are fairly steep

[AlfaRonny]

Here's a picture from Fangio in the '53 Mille Miglia.
It's not Klemantaski, but comes from the Alfa Romeo archives.
Scanned it from a book

[Boudewijn]

Interesting pic of 00126 at Henry Wessels residence also showing his Tipo B and 33 Stradale.

[AlfaRonny]

The Phil Hill 6C 3000 CM nowadays

[AlfaRonny]

Wich one is this ?

It's one of the Spiders, no ?

[AlfaRonny]

Here are some 1953 pictures.
After a few weeks of rebuilding the place, I finally got back to installing the PC, not using the laptop anymore.

# 22 Le Mans '53
#?02 Mille Miglia '53 Fangio
# 46 Supercortemaggiore '53 Fangio

[AlfaRonny]

and two more.

First one is Fangio, probably at Supercortemaggiore (#46)

Second one is Sanesi

[AlfaRonny]

Here you'll find some large pictures of the (ex-Fangio) Phil Hill Car at the Le Mans Classic '04. Some info too, but nothing new...
