Fabulous pics, Des.

Now for the puzzle...out of them all, which would you take home. And you can only choose one.

In my view, it's the Number 124 SSK - without a doubt. BTW Des, thanks heaps for those pics - so very interesting, the cars, locations, and the work you have put in.

When Topklasse gradually improves the facilities open to members, it is certainly envisaged that this thread will be uploaded to a special folder or section, so that it will be easy to recall or re-visit the thread. Regards Styria

Unless I am mistaken, I have actually seen this SSK at Salzburg Classic Days back in 2005. The back ground, the large tent, are very reminiscent of the set-up at the Salzburgring.

One other car that also looks familiar is the Open Tourer as depicted in Des' pictures. What a magnificent car. There was talk or hint that its value approached five million Euros - or maybe that was the 300SLR that competed (and I think won) the Panamericana Rallye back when. It can all get vet confusing. I shouls put in some pics, but it's still pretty early in the morning. Regards Styria
