Tom W. - I would recommend this place if you want to stay on the island within walking distance of the Breakers without breaking the bank: http://travel.yahoo.com/p-hotel-327750-palm_beach_hotel-i I used to live there in the mid 1980's, and it is a bit nicer now. Not too fancy, but a great location,...

No problem Mark. Looking forward to the visit! This could be great to have lots of vintage cars in the garage.

Not a problem Tom! I really like the Ritz, and it is a nice drive up the island from there to the Breakers. We will be having a little steak dinner for out of towners most likely on Thursday or Friday afternoon / evening. If you can make it, I would like to meet you. The FROG is indeed a family room...

To clarify, TomY. has dibs on the guest room, but the FROG (where Tom and Mark stayed two years ago) is available for Mark and TomK if you are looking for a convenient place to stay (TomY. has to vouch for you being trustworthy). There is plenty of safe parking in the garage since I sold my 348. You...

I assume Tom will be staying at the Steeplechase guest deluxxxxe suite. If Mark and Tom also make the trek down and need a place to stay they can use the Steeplechase garage semi-luxe suite. It could save plenty of cash for use during the week. The garage space is available for all three cars, so se...

Tom, I just returned last night from a driving trip to the mountains. It was incredible! Two dead squirrels, one dead bird, and 1000 miles through the mountains in three days. If you are drivgin a fun car, I would highly recommend driving on GA 197 between Clarkesville and GA 5. You can get some gre...

We are having a Steak dinner (for free) on Friday around 5:30 for anyone who would like to attend. Our home is right off the Beeline highway (State Road 710) on the way back to West Palm Beach (or the island for those staying near the Breakers). We had an interesting mix of people last year, and it ...

Saying you are with Tom (Yang) will get you into the Tracy house steak out, on whichever night we decide to have it. It was a fun time last year. I second the idea that the Jet Reception is a must do (from what I have heard). I will bring some sandwiches and drinks to the track Friday, just send me ...

I would recommend thiis place if you want to be close to the Breakers without spending exorbitant dollars: Palm Beach Hotel Condominium 235 Sunrise Avenue Palm Beach, FL 33480 (561) 659-7665 Reservations: (561) 655-4580 The rooms also have kitchenettes and it is about 200 yards from Publix, so you c...

I stumbled across this 330 Series II being auctioned in Miami:

Looks nicein the pictures, and this auction has pretty poor circulation so it may be a bargain waiting to happen for someone (if the reserve is low enough).

Edit: The car is asking $57,500...

www.Motorcargallery.com has a series 1 330 asking $56k I think. It is just coming in, no pictures available yet, not restored. It claims to be the first Series 1 330. The salesman there is Ed Waterman I think. they had a 275 GTB that needed total restoration a few months ago and were asking $750k. I...

What I'm saying is that as long as you are planning on being in the area anyway, $600 is not that much to spend to go to the Tour of Palm Beach, Jet, Reception, Yacht Hop, Friday Track Day, Saturday Concours, and the awards dinner Sat. Night. If you are already spending the money for a hotel, and tr...

Yes, we architects are always short on time. I consider my 348 to be more of a new car (even though some refer to it as 'classic'). The newer sports car that I have (the Ginetta) was actually built in 2002, but is titled as a 1967 because it was designed back then. I intend to do some serious mechan...

If I were a vintage 2+2 owner I think the $600 fee would be reasonable to spend for a full week of available activities. I'd bet Mark Dempsey would feel that he had a good value in his trip here (although a free room helps). Think of it in terms of the cost of a comparable part. Maybe it equates to ...
