A profile shot of the car, just because it’s so pretty:
Such beautiful curves- reminds us of a Japanese E-Type. Love it in forest green also.
Hit up ATG for more GT goodness.

Ford GT

Assorted grab bag of stuff we like

The Porsche 914 and 914/6
•June 4, 2010 • 1 CommentLove these. Not our first choice of older Porsche (aircooled 911) or even our second (944/968), but they’re certainly not far behind (we would include the achingly lovely 356, but we’re realists). In any case, we would take one in a heartbeat. Excellent reading on them can be had here and here, among other places.
Given that the 914 was once met with a lukewarm reception by the Porsche faithful, we wonder if the oft-maligned Boxster, too, will someday age as well as these cars have (at minimum, we expect this one will). But one trump card the 914 will always hold over the Boxster? Coming in sixth overall at the 1970 24 Hours of Le Mans.
London-Sydney rally Porsche
•June 4, 2010 • 2 CommentsLooking pretty unstoppable in full-on battle gear. Tracing this 7,000 mile, 11-country, 11-day journey, you would pretty much have to be.

The Red Pig
•June 4, 2010 • 3 CommentsMore W109- this time, it’s the famous Red Pig (or a replica thereof, rather) that deserves a closer look.
(The modern Merc may as well not even be there, that’s how indifferent we are to it.)
If you like this, you will also like this ass kicker of the European historic racing circuit.

Back when 'diesel' was a dirty word
•June 3, 2010 • Comments Off on Back when 'diesel' was a dirty wordThis is some fine hooning (and what an open space! a source of much envy to us urban dwellers), but holy crap is that a lot of carbon. Not exactly clean diesel, this.
