Best source of information about 8c 2300 is of course Simon Moore`s Legendary 2.3 Book.
There are Moore's text about 8C 2300 LM, presumably written in English and translated to French by the magazine 'Automobiles Classiques' and computer translated back to English

Nope, mine was the silver GTV6 parked a few meters ahead of this GTV, which was driven by two enthusiasts from Tienen. I've been following them on part of the way back to Antwerp.

Is it the GTV6 in the back here?
My 156 was parked in the same row as the green GTV
But who looks at a 156 if there are so many beauties around ??

Yes, it's that one. Dirty and battered, but no time to polish it before coming.
