[Historybuff]

Waited a half year to see the full story finally hit the newsstands in a British magazine (I think it's Classic Car July '08 issue) on the GT40 targa, puke green, that Bondie flipped in the targa in '65. Ronnie Spain (famous author/expert on GT40s)in his books always listed it as destroyed, well, listen up, this story says that when a team was vintage racing a GT40 recently some bloke comes up and says "do ya want a GT40" and they told him to get lost but he persists and months later they go over to look at it, with Ronnie Spain and it was the car, much the worse for wear. They restored it in only nine months and it raced at Goodwood last year. Would I love to be near Bondurant when he sees the car he flipped on its side to see what cues he looks for to see if it is "his "car. I will never believe anymore anyone who says a car has been destroyed, I think of how many times I went to the UK , never looking for the car because I believed the history books...
