This week on the @WestOfTulsa Show, we discuss one of the best #carstories ever! It involves a gorgeous 1963 #Ferrari 250 GT Lusso originally owned by R&B singer #SamCooke. The second owner was #BeachBoys drummer Dennis Wilson. The car vanished from the public eye for years until Orwin Middleton purchased the car in the 1980's not knowing its colorful past. One clue to its celebrity history is a trailer hitch. You have to watch the show to find out the rest and it's definitely worth your time. Plus, Alma Middleton talks about her love for automotive photography and how she met Orwin. We hope you enjoy this week's show. Please like, follow and subscribe.
