The Fuchsia One
Drag racing a bright fuchsia AC Cobra has to be just about the coolest hobby a man can have, hats off to Ed Hedrick.
Cars
Elizabeth
As a guy with solid British heritage I think it only fitting to mention the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee this week, this is a post-WWII photograph of then Princess Elizabeth with her favourite corgi, sitting in what I think is a Rolls-Royce.
Sepia SeeSaw
I’m going to need someone to explain, or try to explain, what the hell is going on in this picture. Click the image for the large size.
1962 Moretti 2500 SS Coupe
This beautiful 1962 Moretti 2500 SS Coupe with coachwork by Carrozzeria Moretti is one of only 20 to have ever been made, it’s powered by a 2500cc carburettor fed straight-6 with 170hp.
Bugatti Barn Find
The barn find is a dream held by many, some men spend their entire lives driving around the country, visiting old widows and creaking open doors to long forgotten garages in the hope that as their eyes adjust to the darkness, they’ll see something just like this.
Mercedes Pit Stop
I love the argument that the two men on the left side of the picture are having. I assume he was saying something along the lines of “What the hell do you mean we only have 3 spare wheels?”
1970 Oldsmobile 442
The 1970 Oldsmobile 442 was the result of General Motor’s decision at the beginning of the model year to drop engine capacity limitations. The 455cu or 7.5 litre engine was one of the largest V8s used during the decade and even now stands as a sort of loud testament to a time when displacement was king.
Marilyn Singer
Not much to say about this, other than mention the fact that I now want to buy that car.
Mustang Delivery
I can think of many uses for 4 Shelby Mustangs. Hell, I’d be quite happy driving around in that fantastic looking truck.
Aston Martin DB7/DB4 Zagato
This is a rather unique motorcar, it gives the first impression of being an early ’60s Zagato but it’s actually based on a DB7 Vantage from the late ’90s. Coachbuilders Evanta stripped the donor DB7 down to almost nothing…
Hong Kong Mercedes
Hong Kong is still one of the most visually fascinating places in the world, funny how that Mercedes doesn’t look out of place at all.
America Three Fifty Six
There are some photographs that seem almost like they float above time. This is a great example.
