Thanks for sharing Michael … Perhaps you can change the Subject to "Happy Birthday Paul Bracq" or something similar

so all can wish him Happy 80st :)

His son, who is a member of the Group, said he was restoring a Pagoda especially for his 80th birthday.  Maybe the one he is standing by is it.

Hi Garry, the blue car in the photos (on your link) looks almost like mine and Peter's Van Es … Colour Code 903 H (except mine has white wall tires) :) if it is the one you mentioned then it means that Blue might be one of his favourite colour. The German site has a Facebook document posted stating that his son and dughter made the Les Ateliers Shop a 80 Birthday present to there Dad … nice present I say. Bet one will be able to find Paul Bracq in that shop quite often :)
