Description
My 1975 240Z and my 1973 Fiat 124 Spider, the cars of our past. We belonged to the Pebble Beach Sports Car Club and ran Auto crosses. We had great timing with both cars. We did Sport Car Rallies and won many. We even set up an Autocross for the Highway Patrol. Another lady and I had better timing, on the Auto Cross, then the highway patrol gents had in their own cars. I loved my Sport cars but I eventually got too old to be able to get in and out of them. What a time we had! I had the Datsun 240 Z for 10 years before my husband thought it was time I sold it. The FAA watermark will not appear on any of your beautifully finished work of Art that you may choose to buy. ***

Nice rides and cool painting.
Phyllis Kaltenbach replied:
Hi Jimmy. Thank you, so very much. I LOVED my cars. I kept the 240Z (Datsun) Spider for over 10 years. A great company made those cars!
Shoal Hollingsworth
WOW, you have had some wonderful cars, I love this piece, so beautiful
Phyllis Kaltenbach replied:
Thank you, Shoal, so very much. We had so much fun during those times. We later went on to Guiding RVer on 59 Day tours throughout Mexico. Some marvelous time, there, also. Smiles!

Great paintings of vintage cars of our pasts. I remember the 240 Z vividly when I was being gifted with my first car in 1971 by my parents. I opted for a less expensive 1971 Mercury Capri which had a sticker price of $2400. Fun memories from the past! F/L

Wonderful memories here, nicely done Phyllis.
Phyllis Kaltenbach replied:
Thank you, so very much, Skip! Those were my "Well Loved Cars". We ran in, and won, many Rallies with the Bebble beach Sports car Club for several years. I had that Datsun 240 Z for 10 years. Never gave me a problem!

Beautifully composed and created Phyllis! l/f
Phyllis Kaltenbach replied:
Thank you very much, Geraldine! We had such fun with those 2 cars! We had the Fiat first and then The 240Z for 10 years!
Matthew John
Wow, love the 240z I have one until recently. Had all new chrome and black trim around the windows. Reluctant sale. :)
Phyllis Kaltenbach replied:
Yes, I didn't want to sell either but I had had it for 10 years and it was time. It was the best car I ever owned! We loved the Fiat also but, there were other problems there. It was a fun car, though!
Karen Adams

They look beautiful Phyllis. You must have had some fun with them!
Phyllis Kaltenbach replied:
Thank you, Ian. Yes, we had a great time with them running Auto-crosses and we won many Rallies! We even set up an Auto-cross for the CHP to teach them better "back up" habits! It was fun!
