Went to the Ralph Lauren Car exhibit today at the MFA, Boston...

It was open hood day.

We've got 959 calipers! =P

All the photos.

The 300SL and GTO were my favorites.

I went about a month ago, closed hoods :-/

Still a neat collection though. Wish I had that kind of $$.

The guy driving the 300SL did a mini drift.

The reason I ask - I believe this may be the same model as the 'original' James Bond (As in Ian Flemming's books - not the movies.) car.

Specifically - is there a supercharger out front? (Yes - outside of the body - driven mechanically off of the front of the crankshaft.) + 3" exhaust?

Great pictures - thanks.

Pic no show? (I hate webshots - except for the fact it be free.)

The supercharger is externally mounted. Very glamorous car...
