Subject: [Fwd: I'm not Phil Hill ???]
A buddy of mine found a car in a barn on the banks of the Ohio river
many years ago. He tracked down the owner and ended up buying it.
Actually, there were two cars in the barn. One was an old race car and
the other (the one he bought) was a road car. He purchased a 1964
Ferrari 275 GTB four cam. (I could be a little off on the year but it
was a V-12 long nose model.)The reason he bought it over the other one
was that it had a full interior. The race car only had a burlap driver's
seat and nothing else! He shined it up and tuned it into a great car. He
kept it for a few years and then sold it at a handsome profit.
The OTHER car was a 250 GTO... It's history included being one of Phil
Hill's back-up cars!!! Hindsight is 20/20.
