          I would agree with you on that. Spiders in general I don't really care for. I lean more towards Sprints and guilia supers.

            This is for you blackbird. 3 sprints in the pic and one more out in the lot. You'll never see this many sprints in one shop at a time

                I think it would depend on whose shop I was in down in Berkeley. :) There are lots of Sprints in that area.

                Still, that is a good looking collection there. Speaking of good looking collections, the garage where I will be keeping both my Sprint and the Datsun will also have a '65 Alfa Spyder in it, and my M3 (should I decide to park it in there.) It will be an impressive collection of motorsports icons. '59 101 Sprint, '65 101 Spyder, '69 Datsun 2000 roadster, '88 BMW M3 and if I got creative, I could get a '02 WRX in there.

                      There was a guy in Seattle with a nice green '67 Super. There was a tiny sticker in the left rear window. Gotta get up close to read it...

                        I like 1750 GTVs. Best of the bunch. Not a big fan of the stepnose cars, they look odd, and the two headlights just don't do it for me. That said, the later 2L dashes don't look good either.

                        I'm really hoping I like my 1750 Sprint. Great engine in a good looking body. Now, to make the thing stop... hahahah
