“Caroll Shelby COBRA GT… for the man who wants everything in one car.”

I once wrote about a photographer who took some brilliant classic car pictures… and on occasion he - Djivy - takes some Mustang pictures as well and they almost always make it to my desktop as nice background.

The St Martins Accessories (World of Model Cars) is one of my favorite shops… and I’ve never been in it yet. It’s located right across the street from my hotel when I stay in London (which is every 2 to 3 weeks). Problem is, when I walk up to our offices in Soho, the shop [...]
