California dreamin’
YOUR FEATURE about Tom Peck’s Ferrari 750 Monza (Octane 214) ignited an idea of such brilliance that I am still reeling from the seismic effect it would have on my own basic collection.
Now, Mr Peck is clearly a man of substantial means. I cannot even start to comprehend the expense and logistics involved in importing Tuscan stone all the way to California to create what has to be one of the finest garages on Earth. How wonderful would it be to have such a creation at my humble home in East Sussex?
At this point, an idea struck me. It would be silly to import Tuscan stone to Sussex, especially when the cars to be concealed within its walls hail from Coventry and Birmingham. I keep a trio of Triumphs: a Dolomite 1850 HL and two TR7s, one a drophead 2.0-litre in Triton Green and the other a semi-track V8 tin-top. In order to build a suitable home for my trio of misfits, I would need to look closer to home for inspiration.
