THE LAST HURRAH

Story and Photos by Keith E. Jacobson

 On Sunday, November 11, 2021, Boch Exotics held a Cars & Coffee event. The cars were packed like sardines in a can. A sign said, "once you park there is no leaving until the end of the event" ... you couldn't get out. This was the closest I have ever been to going to a corn maze.

Sunny with temperatures in the high 50s it was a cool but pleasant day. My C7 will be put away, for the season, in the next day or two so this was the finale for me.

As always there were some interesting cars. A Ferrari Monza SP2 owned by Ernie Boch Jr. drew a lot of attention. Not street legal because of the lack of a wind shield. This very limited production car is priced somewhere around the two million dollar mark.
















 Being so crowded it was difficult to get clear shots of many of the cars. Rarely do I take shots of the cars as they exit but this would be the best opportunity to get some clean pictures. Standing by the side of the road watching many drivers put the pedal to the metal I thought of YouTube videos with Mustangs wiping out as they nailed the accelerator. I hoped none would crash into me. Well, a GT40 went past me nailed it spun out and ended up jumping a curb and ended up in some bushes. Driver was arrested. Expensive day for someone?


 Everyone seemed to enjoy seeing the Weinermobile

 

Great seeing old and new friends and lots of awesome cars!!!













It's been been a great season with so much to see and do. I am already looking forward to the 2022 season. Have a healthy and safe off season. As always ... SEE YOU ON THE ROAD
