Riva Aquariva 33′
When it comes to classic speed boats, the Riva Aquariva 33 occupies a well deserved place at the top of the pile. The deck of the Aquariva is famously composed of…
1964 Works Bultaco 244cc
This drop dead gorgeous 244cc works racer by Bultaco was raced by Ramón Torras in the early 1964 and 1965, right up until his untimely death on another bike at a race in Spain in 1965.
Porsche 911 Factory
This breathtaking photograph of Porsche’s Stuttgart factory, I’m not a 911 expert but I’d guess it was taken in the late ’60s or very early ’70s. I’ll take a red one.
1974 Norton Dunstall 850
One fine day you’ll find me slapping the “bid” button on eBay, on my way to buying a Norton Commando. I’ve always been partial to the 1968 Commando, the one with the nice big drum brake up the front, but I could easily talk myself into buying something just like this.
Side Steering Car
Urban parking isn’t anyone’s idea of a good time, though I’m not quite sure if this particular idea is the answer, it certainly is interesting.
Beatnik Bubbletop
Every now and then I like to go and feature a car or motorcycle that’s so radically different from our usual fare that it causes our regular reader’s eyelids to peel off. And so with this in mind, meet the Beatnik Bubbletop.
Abernathy Kids on their Indian
In 1913 a pair of young boys bought an Indian motorcycle and set out on a road trip from Oklahoma to New York City, they were aged just 13 and 9 so exactly how they could afford the motorcycle is unclear but I think we can all agree that they had very laid back parents.
The Dynasphere
The Dynasphere was a unique attempt at rethinking the still relatively new concept of personal, motorised transport. And it was insane.
Lancia Abarth #037
The Lancia #037, often referred to as the Lancia Abarth #037, was quite possibly the single most insane 2 wheel drive rally car ever made.
Dresda Triton Otto Valvole
Classic Farm Motorcycles is a brilliant little Italian garage with a habit of turning out some of the best classic British iron you’ll find anywhere. The man behind the wrenches is a chap called Fabrizio Di Bella, though is nickname is the rather English sounding “McDeeb”, he builds everything from cafe racers, to off roaders and everything in between.
Tracker by Deus Ex Machina
Deus are most famous for their motorcycle and clothing lines but what a lot of people don’t know is that they build some of the coolest retro surfboards available south of the equator.
WWII Ford GPW Jeep
The classic World War II Jeep is a car that I’ve always wanted, perhaps not as a daily driver but certainly as a weekend warrior. Having an original WWII vintage, non-modified version with the military paint-markings still in place like the jeep here would be a major bonus and the temptation to smoke a cigar and shout at people whilst driving around in it would be almost too much to resist.
