Car Photo of the Day: TwoFifty @ around Nine O’Clock.

Winter is in some sort of odd state of suspended animation here in the Pacific Northwest. Unlike our usual slate grey skies and endless mist falling on cedars, we have high thin clouds, pervasive non-rain, and cold-ish, but not too cold temps. It has been a weird winter. I hope that doesn’t mean we’ll have a wet summer, as I count on running a few rallies this year, including the Monte Shelton, where this 250 (whose particular designation, GTE maybe? I’m not a Ferrari expert, I have forgotten) was photographed after the sun set over the Pacific. Of course I have a lot of small jobs, and maybe one big one (brake system rebuild… sigh) on the Jaguar to do. I haven’t even LOOKED at the car, much less done any work on it. Need something to get me motivated!

This photograph is really not that great… the background is way too busy and that chain link fence really screws up the horizon… but the light on the car is wonderful and I’m too lazy to clean it up in Photoshop. Just mentally ignore the distractions and soak up those dying reflections in the paint as you contemplate warm summer evenings. 🙂
