Here are some pictures from a couple of garages near Turin (TORINO). Everywhere we stopped and visited we got wine or coffee. Italians simply do it better “e basta!” We are already looking forward to the next trip to Italy. Thanks for all the hospitality and all the passion. Hope to see you all soon again. Open a bottle of wine and enjoy the photos.
PHOTOS: CHRISTER LUNDEM Do you feel lucky - punk, do you? Clint Eastwood isn´t pointing a gun towards me so honestly I do. Often I pinch myself and see if I am really alive. To make a living finding vintage cars, visiting nice people from all over the World and having great friends with the same interests to enjoy this passion with - yes sometimes life is really sweet or “dolce” as the Italian say it. Here are some pictures from a couple of garages near Turin (TORINO). Everywhere we stopped and visited we got wine or coffee. Italians simply do it better “e basta!” We are already looking forward to the next trip to Italy. Thanks for all the hospitality and all the passion. Hope to see you all soon again. Open a bottle of wine and enjoy the photos. Last year Benzina found an old Luigi Alfa Romeo Group A race car that had been resting in garages since 1989. With help from two clever friends (Bjørn Ivar Iversen and Fredrik Dahl), lots of houres and parts, we managed to get it up and running. This is from the first test. Straight from the trailer with no testing, bad brakes, old slicks and very shaky nerves on the driver. But we loved every second, just listen to that sound! There is nothing like old race cars coming alive again. Thanks to Ole Vik for the wonderful film clip. |
