Hi Russ,

ill pm you mike

Looking forward for next weekend lol :)

Chasing Classic Cars Tuesday evening on Sky TV. Wayne Corini was offered the chance to buy an old racing Lotus elite that an old lady had tucked away in a garage. When he was finally allowed to see the car he was told she had just agreed to sell it to somone else so he lost out however just behind him in the garage was a black Acura NSX which looked like it was in regular use, clearly a family with taste and a view to a cars future value.
Wayne then went on to buy a 250 Lusso Ferrari that had been in the same ownership for almost 50 years so it wasn't too bad a days work. More barn finds in the US lucky b***ers.

I've just got into watching these and they are good viewing ... I wouldn't mind being a few $$ behind his friend Mark the collector!

I liked the other week when he got the call to look at a red sports car ... turned out to be 29k mile Dino ... as you say, they have a lot of barns in the US of A

I saw that one as well and if I remember correctly he paid about $50,000 for it. Can you image finding a rust free Dino for £35000, if only.

Did he pay the older man 50k for it? You might aswell call it stealing.... I don't think he is a real car lover and his way of restoring cars is an absolute failure. Just in it for the money.

Yes 50,000 dollars daylight robbery. I recall seeing him using aerosol cans to tart up brake drums on a car going to auction, not a good example of their standards.
I have seen a Daytona he restored and that was superb so I suppose it's a commercial decision.
