A Steady Hand

Love this shot of a sign painter at work from the USA Diligence Flickr stream of Jim Kimberly’s Ferrari 166 MM being prepared for a race at Palm Springs. Check out more of Kimberly’s Ferrari here.

Thanks John for pointing this one out!

After me! Marshall Lewis, chief of Kimberley’s scuderia, won the event in the car; then it was sent to Pebble Beach where Gentleman Jim flipped it–I took some photos of it there. Current owner Jon Shirley had the car restored to its pre-Kimberley configuration, with a fin on the rear deck for its number as in the European distance races. I was thrilled to be on the track alongside it at Coronado in 2004.
