Do you remember the first racecar you ever lusted after? I\u2019m not talking about the \u201cOh, I\u2019d love to own that car,\u201d kind of puppy-love lust. I\u2019m talking about that full pubescent, deep burning desire in the pit of your stomach kind of lust where you know you\u2019d commit almost any kind of unspeakable act to have the object of your desire. For me, it was an E-Type.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The question was \u201cWhat car to restore?\u201d I was going through a British car period and my friend was big into vintage BMWs. So we went out to a local historic race to reconnoiter the then state of play. At the time, my connections where in the Triumph world, so I pretty well knew that this was where we would most likely end up, but we wanted to see what else might be possible. Then primal lust set in.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
