Re: McQueen's Machines
We would set a place to meet for lunch and then take off. Steve in the 1963 Ferrari 250GT Lusso and me in my Porsche 356 SC 1600. Steve's idea of fun was to go roaring off and, a couple hours later be parked at the side of the road pretending to be bored waiting for us to arrive. It was a great time. He really loved that car.

Chris_H informs that for non- petrol heads like me the book is still good - Some great shots of Steve are in there too.

I love the green mustang; and the car chase scenes in Bullitt and The Getaway are among the best in cinema.
