Do I detect that someone went out to get some ideas for their next build? Maybe a multi-color 37 Ford similar to the Beemer? Great pictures, I wouldn't mind seeing more.

Thanks Dave, I'm jealous. LOVE the Jag ( think Leno did a thing once where he drove it). That's the one thing I miss about where we lived in Indana; we were 20 minutes from Auburn where there are 4 great car museums (Auburn-Cord-Duesenburg, NATMUS, Kruse's WWII & Auto and the Ford V8) plus every Sept they have the big auction. Haven't found anything in this area yet.

Thanks for sharing. I'm with you Dave, all those cars are nice but those Kustom Mercs and the Spence Roadster is where it's at. Give me one of those over a Ferrari or Porsche any day! :)

I am almost positive the street MK III was at the Shelby American Collection in Boulder a few years ago. Same street car, color and wire wheels. Very cool!
