"X" marks the spot.

You never know when you'll find a hidden gem, a rare car in a parking lot, a childhood favorite on the freeway, today I found a treasure chest full of names like March Formula Atlantic, Phil Hill, Dan Gurney, vintage Ferrari, Porsche, and Alfa Romeo.

The spot is an understated garage bay in an industrial park. Having driven past once or twice and seen glimpses of what lay inside, today I could no longer resist.

I flipped the car around, parked, and approached the roll up door with my jaw on the floor. Upon stepping inside I was greeted by the owner who was happy to let me wander the shop, take a few photos and ask a million questions. An invitation was extended for me to stop by any time, so don't worry, there are more photos to come.
