    Hi gang,
    I was digging thru some of my photos tonight and found this one.Whats kinda unique is that it shows two of the very few sportscars ever built with center mounted steering wheels.We were obviously in the middle of the Manta restoration and not quite finished .if you peek in the backgroud you'll see the lovely mint green ,one of a kind Bizzarini Manta.The first design by Georgetto Guigaro's(Hope thats spelled close) Italdesign design bureau.Oh and by the way,the manta won it's class at Pebble beach in 2005.Thought you might get a kick outa this. Tim.

    What year was this photo taken and where. I saw the Manta at Pebble. Drew quite a crowd. I believe that the owner is here in the SFV.
