I came across this Lancefield bodied streamliner on an Armstrong Siddely chassis. Striking design. That sent me down the Siddeley rabbit hole.

Patina Patina Patina.. I love it!!!

I just saw @alsancle listed this in the marketplace. Loved the 40-42 Willys since I saw the movie "Hot Rod" back in HS. Do not like the glass street versions but love the old school gasser variety. This looks cool and at 45k semi reasonable for a steel car until you see it sits on a truck chassis.

What do you guys think? The movie was shlock but the Willys was great!

One of my all time favorite prewar collector cars is coming up for auction again.  I saw this in person back in Arizona 7 years ago the last time it sold.  I have visions of this being an ultimate tour car.  A 1936 Cadillac Series 90 V-16 Five-Passenger Town Sedan.   The only one that still exists.  The 1990s restoration was 350k.

Last time it sold for under 200k and it might sell for less this time.   I LOVE THIS CAR!

What could possibly go wrong with this idea? I’m not sure that having the wings and tail section of an aircraft removable in five minutes is a particularly good thing. I would think that you’d want to have to work a whole lot harder to get those two pieces to come apart. Also, the removal of the propellor while in car mode takes some of the fun out of it. How else would you mince cyclists that refuse to move over?

1994 Mercedes-Benz G320 Cabriolet is live on Bring a Trailer and selling at NO RESERVE.
What's it worth?

$50,000?
$80,000?
$125,000?

These G-Wagen Cabriolets are rare, collectible, and all over the map when they cross the auction block. Some comparable examples have brought well into six figures, while others have traded considerably lower.

My guess? 🤔

What say you? Place your bets below. 🍿🚙💨

Claude is rediculous!  I prompted  it to create a hand drawn sketch of my car from a photo.

I recently came across the story of Audi Tradition commissioning restoration experts Crosthwaite and Gardiner to recreate the streamlined Auto Union record car that was used for speed record attempts near Lucca, Italy, in 1935. The original machine was an incredible piece of engineering for its day, with a smooth aluminum body that completely enclosed the wheels and gave it a shape that looked more like an aircraft than a race car. Every curve served a purpose, helping the car cut through the air at a time when aerodynamic design was still a relatively new concept. Looking at it today, it’s easy to see why the car seemed so futuristic. It captured the spirit of an era when engineers and drivers were constantly chasing higher speeds and willing to experiment with bold new ideas to get there. Pretty cool! Read more here:

Raymond Mays has a rear wheel depart from his Bugatti Type 13 Brescia during the 1924 Caerphilly Mountain Hill Climb in Wales.

Moments like this are a reminder of just how different racing was a century ago. Drivers attacked hill climbs, road races, and circuits with little more than a leather helmet, a pair of goggles, and a healthy disregard for danger. Mechanical failures were common, safety equipment was virtually nonexistent, and the risks were simply accepted as part of the sport. #bugatti #racing

Just populated "My Garage" feature.  More details to come but it's pretty cool.  Site is rapidly coming along!
