OSI-IG Meeting 2011

!

Last Sunday (October 9) I was in Frankfurt and met again some of the OSI friends from 2006. Unfortunately I drove 600 Km to be there and could't be there much time because I had to drive back another 600 Km to Geneva. Here are some pictures...

To be done...

Sergio Sartorelli - May 7, 1928 - November 28, 2009

!
Ing. Sartorelli died on last November 28. I am so deeply sad that I didn't yet find courage to write anything about it. Last letter he wrote me was 17 pages of precious information and his fine handwriting and text shows that at 81 his mind was as clear as if he was half that age...

Unfortunately I couldn't be on his funeral. My sincere condolences to his family. At least I had the chance to tell him how I admire his work and career. I will never forget Mr. Sartorelli and his kindness. My website was already dedicated to him and now more than ever I feel obligated to improve my work in order to honor this fine gentleman.

I will tell you more soon.

OSI friends met near Paris, September 20.

!

Philippe, Antoine and Paul were supposed to be meeting with their OSIs in a large classic car show near Paris.

Paul was on his way but had to turn back because of a sudden noise in front of the car. He managed to reach home. We hope it is not a very important mechanical trouble. Antoine has stopped with the car next to the exhibition because of mechanicals problems on the engine. Philippe picked him up and they went to the exhibition. About 200 or 300 cars were parked, a great moment. At the end of the afternoon, they towed Antoine's OSI to Philippe's house. At least they had the chance to send us these great pictures. Seeing one OSI is good, seeing two OSIs together is even better. We hope next time the friends from France can have a lot more cars together.

I am a bit jealous of Philippe: he had four OSIs at his home for some time...

OSI meeting 2006

osi_nuremberg

I was lucky to be in Nuremberg in November 2006. In this great day I met Oliver, Stephen, Egbert, Andreas and other great OSI fans as well as 11 Ford OSI 20m TS and one OSI Fiat. Check out some pictures of this glorious day. If someone wants to have them in high resolution (3888x2592, about 4 Mb each), please let me know. I want to thank Oliver Franz for being the perfect host and everyone else who shared information and stories.
