As its still Ferrari Friday, here is a shot from the assembly road at Goodwood of chassis 2129GT, a Ferrari 250 GT SWB/C sold to Garage Francorchamps for Willy Mairess to race in 1960.
This car took the victory at the Tour de France on its maiden race, driven by Willy Mairesse and Georges Berger, under number 157. It then took second at the 1000km Paris with Wolfgang von Trips partnering Willy Mairesse.
In 1967, under the ownership of Bill Lake, the car had sliding windows fitted rather than the factory vent windows.
In 2001 Adrian Beecroft took ownership, and the car was fitted with registration "SSL 899".

The 10th Annual Drive for the cure Canada (to raise Prostate Cancer awareness) held its annual car show at the Brampton Powerade Centre. there was a bevy of beautiful classic cars; so many wonderful automotive designs from years gone by and all in one place. there were well over four hundred cars on display. .
I have always loved sports cars, that is probably why I love this classic 1957 convertible Porsche 356 speedster in jet black, it was lovingly restored and maintained by the fifth owner who spent nine years rebuilding and repairing this lovely small classic..
