>>>For those that have not yet connected the dots, that's Guy Trigaux, who 
emigrated from Belgium to the USA a few years ago, and has set up shop 
there.   He brought his Gr4 Pantera and Maserati Ghibli when he moved here, along 
with an Alfa 2600 (if my memory is correct--a bit fuzzy on that last one), 
and since then, also bought a Euro GTS Pantera out of Italy.

He was the guest speaker at the POCA Fun Rally a few years ago.

SUPER guy, with incredible knowledge; his son is following in his footsteps 
and will take over the business someday.

He owns the Team Claude Dubois Gr4 Pantera #2862, which started *and 
finished* the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1972 and again in 1975.
