Hey Shinysiders! It's been a long summer and just before we get geared up for our long winter, I wanted to introduce you all to Shinyside.net's newest member, Mr. Robby DeGraff.

Actually, this vehicle is a 1931 indented firewall twin side mount Model A Roadster. But who's splitting hairs? um... The Ford collectors, that's who.

Today in Joliet, specifically on the infield at Chicagoland Speedway, the temperature hit a high of 91 degrees. Which seems totally bearable if I wasn't spending my day suited up in a fire-retardant auto racing suit complete with a head-sock and helmet.

This winter I took a trip down the eastern seaboard (and subsequently down memory lane) to North Carolina to visit some old friends and to see my sister-in-law. While down there I met up with a dear friend who's father has a 1967 Ferrari 330 GTC that is being rebuilt from the ground up.

What better way to start off the newest section on ShinySide.net than to take a photographic tour of the greatest automotive garage in all of Vermont...

Not surprisingly, the Porsche 911 has been around for more than 45 years. Somewhere near it's 30th birthday (draw your over-the-hill comparisons now), Porsche designed and produced one of it's greatest cars yet, the Type 993.

I'm going to shimmy out on a high altitude tree limb and express my views on the the 1957 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster: This is the prettiest car. Ever.
