Depth of Speed is a 10 episode web-series that focusses on small-scale motorcycle and car builders across the USA, it’s been produced in conjunction with HypeBeast. This is episode 1 and it features the team from the Pangea Speed garage in Salt Lake City, Utah. The film itself is a well put together 5 minute sojourn into the lives of some very cool and very talented people.
This 1940 Ford circle track racer is currently listed out of Brick, New Jersey with a buy-it-now price of $6,900. Originally built in 1950…
Great photograph of a couple of British ladies giving a 1963 Jaguar E-Type a quick clean. I bet they’d make a great cup of tea.
This magnificent old Roller has a 7.7 litre straight 6, an engine that I would pay good money just to listen to. The 1926 Phantom…
Easily one of the greatest car films of all time, Bullitt featuring Steve McQueen has become one of the standout celluloid icons of the late 60s. This picture was taken during filming and, I think, it sums up the film rather well. Hell, it sums up McQueens entire career rather well.

This is the original 1968 brochure for the now infamous Holden Monaro. The Australian muscle car became sacred-poster-material on every Australian boy’s bedroom wall, it saw production from 1968 till 1977 and was then revived in 2001 till 2005.
The Wiesmann Gran Turismo is in many respects, Germany’s answer to The Morgan Motor Company.

Cars like this one are becoming rarer and rarer, this 1953 Nash Ambassador Custom is in immaculate condition throughout and has only 26,106 miles from new.
