What are the rotary dials in the background attached to?

I always was floored by this good looking beauty since I found out about it in the 80’s,
Still can’t get over the amount details our cars managed to get from it.

Your white snowflake looks to have a lot better detail than mine, all your chrome details are just painted black on mine.
I will detail it(a few years of dust) and give it a well deserved photo shoot, give me a few days…

More drooling action and sound on the 3,500,000$ auction car here:

Anyone know what the groovy music is on the auction video?

Here's a little better view. It's an Atwater Kent Model 20 AM radio from the 1920's.

Looking forward to it!

That looks interesting, different, not what I was expecting, nostalgic.
Thanks for posting.

Here ya Go:

Your AutoArt is a way better quality than my cheap ass 10$ lucky find.

Wonder what the auction on this First Serial-Numbered Toyota 2000 GT – Chassis MF10-10001 will get?

That's a great composition in the first shot! The clutch disk and the Ferrari(?) blurring off into the distance just seem right.


The auction? A 2000 GT of this provenance AND massaged by Carrol Shelby . . .

I like #3 with the Torii gate and what seems to be a large sun, the 2000gt surveying the landscape in its native setting.

Yes! It is a 16x12” picture to remind me of my Asian trip and what I remember seeing around lake Ashi (we did Japan, China, Thailand, HK )
I did with my Ant & Uncle in January 1989. (Side note, something always happens a month or 2 after I visit places…) Wish I could go back.

Tks.
About Those RED One’s in the background: It is a F50 (made in Italy Bburago) also present is a S2000 Maisto. Clutch is an Exedy,
that may go in my GD3 if needed, but for the time being does double duty as a photo prop and door stop…

Hmmm, the number 23 in Japanese is Ni San, they like to number their works racecars that number. Im going to Amelia next weekend and will look for it.
