1970 Shelby GT500 Mustang Fastback
This 1970 Shelby GT500 Mustang Fastback sold for $220,000 USD last year at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Las Vegas, the rarity of the 1970 Shelby has helped the car gain markedly in value in recent years – only 789 were ever made.
Bullet Cufflinks

Ducati ST2 Custom by Radical Ducati
I’ve made this comparison before, but Radical Ducati is to motorcycles what Skunk Works is to aircraft. The Spanish garage has been taking stock Ducatis and turning them into two wheeled missiles for years now and as such they’ve earned a deserved reputation as the single greatest custom Ducati garage in the world.
Junghans Max Bill Chronoscope
