    My grandfather told me about this once. (He was from Norwich, NY, which isn't that far from Binghamton.) This is the first time I've heard BARC mentioned since he died. Thank you for writing this fascinating article.

    I was really hoping. My uncle ran the 1957 Sebring in an Arnolt-Bristol, but I did not see him. I'm sending this link to my dad though. He knows more than I what Uncle Leonard looked like in 1957.

    @CafeRacer1200: Looks like he came 5th in class, 30th overall, and importantly, was classified as running at the finish. Not a bad showing considering that the winning car in his class was a Ferrari driven by a guy named Ginther.


    (I'm making it my mission to find a picture of your Uncle tonight.)

    I once saw a Porsche very similar to one of those in the main picture as I was exiting a Starbucks. It had the same color and was numbered similarly with a round sign, it looked like it was in mint condition. Anyway, it had the loudest engine I've ever heard on a street car. It was so mean that some guy said "Savage!" I even felt surprised that the young driver stopped to let me cross the aisle. I wonder if it was extremely modified, or if it was the original sound of that car.

    Hey Scroggzilla, can you find the link to that cool video on the Juan Manuel Fangio fansite on FB? Since they changed it around, I can't find anything, even you!

    Is it bad that I'm more interested in the background and spectators' cars?

    Murilee, you have got to stop with these postings... I'm in the mood to show what I came up with in a short perios of time on Craigslist:


    These are some unique LeMons Cars, just in time for the New England race in July... so bring a trailer:


    How about a Camouflaged VW Cabriolet?



    [worcester.craigslist.org]


    Or how about something unique? Like a 1960 Ford Thunderbird? Sure it doesn't run, but drop a ford 351 in it, and go!



    [hartford.craigslist.org]


    How about a Running 1969 Pontiac LeMans?



    [hartford.craigslist.org]


    Here's a real treat, a Running (though not very well at the moment) 1950 Dodge Coronet?



    [westernmass.craigslist.org]


    If the Coronet doesn't light your fire, how about an honest to god 1951 Kaiser for only $500?



    [westernmass.craigslist.org]


    Something that's just a bit different, a 1965 Mercury Comet Caliente, straight six, 3 Speed, just right!



    [westernmass.craigslist.org]


    How about a Supercharged 1995 Buick Riviera? There shouldn't be that many problems with it!

    I love Porsches. I like the styling, the power from the flat six, the ass engined handling, pretty much everything about them.
    Porsches sind perfekt.

    @.357's motto: F*ck The World: Perfect? If they were perfect, what would you have to say about those endlessly italian Birdcage maseratis? If those Porsches were perfect, would there still be room for nut-brained Chaparrals? Don't the awkward old fenders of the 1950s that taper away into little fins call to you? Don't you ever stare at a porsche and dream of something red, or green, or just plain stupid? Hell, don't you sometimes want a great big, supercharged lump of germanic steel lodged in the front of the silver arrow you're staring at, drooling away? Perfect - what a dangerous word.
