That's a beautiful collection, James! Cool car too BTW, but I'd prefer your basses...

Great collection James.The SSR was the pace car in last years Indy 500 and was the official track car for the race this year.I think you should shoot pics of those beautiful Alembic's in the bed of that cool ride.

I'd love to, but I no longer have the SSR.  I get different cars assigned to my every 90 days.  The SSR went back last December and I didn't have the foresight to snap any shots with the Alembics.  Only reason I took the shot with the Hanewinckel was I had just picked it up the day I decided to snap pictures of the car.
 
Next cool car I get I'll snap Alembic pictures.  That, or I'll find somebody who has an SSR assigned to them and trade for a day.
 
Peace,
 
James

Brother James,
 
now because I am definitely the dude around here with the biggest mouth (see postnumber LOL): explain me loads of gorgeous basses, a new car every 90 days, I know MAAM -you invented it anyway - but you need A LOT of MAAM to get all this together no?
So tell us the secret ...

Love that car.
 
Many greetings

Actually, the two are sorta related.  I work for a car company.  A really big car company.  At the level I'm at, I get assigned a car or truck every 90 days for evaluation purposes.  Car or truck is assigned pretty much randomly, so I never know 'til I get to the fleet office what I'll be driving next.  Because of this arrangement I don't have to spend money on car payments, car insurance, or gas, so that money can be directed towards......basses!  And jewelry for the mrs and toys for the kids, etc, etc.
 
To make matters even more twisted, my wife works for a competing car company and has a similar arrangement.
 
Oliver - Best of luck with the job search.
 
Peace,
 
James

Uhhh,I want your job James.

oh ...uhuh ...the late Robert Palmer sung Some guys have all the luck...
 
But ...I DO am happy for you James!!! And for the mrs ...and kids ....

James: Lemme take a wild guess, could it be you work for the General? Just a wild thought and a stab in the dark, LOL!

I was recruited by the General back in the late '90's for a management job in Reno, NV (for GM-SPO), but I turned it down. I did get a nice all-expenses paid vacation to Reno (incl. GM rental car, LOL!) for four days courtesy of the General in order to check the place out, though. LOL!

James,
We're in the same industry!  I work with the Toyota/Lexus distributor for the SE.  20 years and counting.  Of course I don't get a car every 90 days, more like every 9 years.
