Naples has a little known but world class automobile museum. Over the next few days, I plan to show some cars from that collection. How to pick a reasonable number of cars from the
100+ automobiles in the collection is a big challenge.
This is the first exhibit seen in the entry hall, three red racing cars from 1964. There is a mid engine Porsche 904 GTS, a front engine Alfa Romeo GTZ and a rear engine Simca-Abarth.
that looks like a great museum!
ReplyDeleteIf anyone is up for the challenge, I'm sure it's you Jack!
ReplyDelete"Bond, James Bond".
ReplyDeleteAh, I agree with Halcyon, Jack!! Love these first cars and I'm looking forward to seeing more!! What a fun museum! Hope you have a great day!!
ReplyDeleteOne word comes to mind: Sporty!
ReplyDeleteThis is going to be fun, Jack!
ReplyDeleteI think all racing cars should be red. It just looks right. Love those old photos up above too.
ReplyDeleteAlfa Romeo forever!
ReplyDeleteYes. Like VP says, for lots of reasons. But I wouldn't mind a Porsche but red? Mmmm, that's Ferrari and Ferrari alone...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cars!
ReplyDeleteThose are some serious cars!
ReplyDeleteToo bad you couldn't take one for a spin.
ReplyDeleteHow interesting Jack. We have a car museum here in Tallahassee too. Here is their website in case you are ever up this way: www.tacm.com
ReplyDeleteNothing to drool over?
ReplyDeleteNicely composed shot. I can't remember the last time I heard of a "Simca."
ReplyDeleteOh, they are beautiful !
ReplyDeleteI think my husband's heart would stop beating if he was able to enter this museum to see all the wonderful cars there.
