    Great sadness of loss

    Oh, no. So sorry to hear of this. David and Andrea's signature are on a place of honor on my GT. The only husband and wife team to podium at LeMans....any class. Great folks, great drivers, who contributed to GT history. Condolences to Andrea and the family.

    Amelia Concours d'Elegance

    By chance I happened to be at last year's Bonhams auction when that amazing home-built Rolls Merlin crossed the block. I recognized it immediately from the dialog on this Forum. An incredible car.
