But what makes my heart skip a beat is the awesome cars brought back to life and made better than they ever were. Living vicariously through the people who are able to make this happen is exciting enough, and I very much appreciate the builds on this site, and the photos in threads like this. I remember my first few visits to this site seeing Roadster Shop's C1RS build thread, and I dug up a Robb Report scanned magazine ad for it as another "poster car". Not to single-out RS specifically, but I miss that they no longer post build threads here, to be able to read about the work done in addition to the galleries on their website.
Being able to read about the progress, the work done, to keep cars on the road that have actual style -- and the performance to match -- is so cool. Same with talking to those same guys at the car shows about what they've done and how it was done, while my non-mechanical feeble brain soaks it all in.
Sorry for rambling -- this Singer DLS looks amazing, and it'd be quite a treat to see in person!
Since this is a photo thread... for anyone who's not familiar with the C1RS from years ago, here's that magazine ad.[/QUOTE]
Juggernaut ... could not agree more, the Vette is stunning and reminds me a lot of this 2nd outstanding piece of artwork. This SL, would LOVE to see this in person.
