Well done. Most of us that endure the work of vintage ownership are doing so in part out of romance. I recently added a fjord blue 3.0 CS to my quiver. One morning I unloaded a some old Macintosh hifi gear out of the trunk, thinking "well this is about about as good as it gets". You captured that feeling here....

@@TimsEnthusiastGarage How right you are. I really don't think most people are aware of that beautiful sound unless you were involved with carburators especially 3 webers with simple air cleaners. In 1977 my friend bought his modified 3.0 CSL for $12k, an outrageous amount until you drove it. Previous owner used it at Lime Rock (?) Connecticut, I think. If this economy ever returns and I can still drive..........

Team33 I agree with you the experience is truly made great with a manual. I will say that cars that as a lad I would never have considered with an Auto do have a usefulness in terms of “cruising” great distances AND as you rightly pointed out the cars are often much cheaper. Most of the cars I own are spec’d with a manual . Certainly a member of the “save the manuals” society. Cheers and thanks for watching!
