Subject: Re: [Ferrari] The wait

Jason: I saw my first Ferrari race at Paramount Ranch in 1956 (Bruce Kessler
driving). From that moment on...I was hooked and promised myself that some
day I'd drive my own. From there it was Shelby in John Edgar's car, John von
Neuman, Ritchie Ginther, Phil Hill and John's Daughter, Josie race in the
1950's. I even saw Dan Gurney's first Ferrari test in an old clap-trap 4.9
at Riverside Raceway. Dan had been driving Cal Bailey's Corvette up until
then. So, from the summer of 1956 til June, 1999 appears to be 43 years. I
always said that once I drove my own Ferrari (Sorry cLyDe if it's only a
Shitbox, but it's registered as a Ferrari), I could die feeling I had done
something positive in my life, and die satisfied. I had a good friend in
Tucson who owned a Euro 308. He died in 2003 and his funeral was all
Ferrari, His red 308 parked beside his open grave, his plain unpainted
wooden coffin decorated with a large red and gold spray of roses, and a huge
flower Cavallino on a sta
 nd beside the coffin. His wife said that they got the idea before he died
from pictures of the von Tripps funeral after his crash at Monza in 1961. To
me, he couldn't have had a better exit from this world.

We're moving in Dec!

Content:  With this move everything above "Ferrari" has been scratched 
off the list.  The F-car seems just around the corner now, even if still 
years away.

Who has the record for waiting the longest?  Any 100-year-old's running 
out and purchasing their first exotic?

Jason
