| | | Steve McQueen's Ferrari Goes up for Auction
Thought I would share this news item from Rueters:  Steve McQueen stands next to his 1963 Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta Lusso in an undated file photo released to Reuters on April 27, 2007. A 1963 Ferrari once owned and driven by the late film star Steve McQueen is expected to fetch between $800,000 and $1.2 million at an auction in August, Christie's said. REUTERS/William Claxton/Courtesy of Demont Photo Management, LLC/Handout It would be so cool to own a 1963 250 GT, but then to have one that was owned by Steve McQueen, well, that would just be way cool!

| | | Good luck to the person who pays that much for that car. There's no way I would even if I had 1M I didn't know what to do with. |

| | And Bullitt too!  Though, no Chuck Bronson in that one.
Is it just me, or does Steve look really goofy in that pic? |

| | | I am younger than you and I know who he is!
He was in a bunch of car movies from "back in the day" Le Mans and Bullit being some of the more famous ones. |
