But you don’t need to speak German to appreciate this late-60s-ish (they look like SWB 911s to me, but feel free to correct me if I’m wrong) film of the Porsche factory building the cars, a race at Daytona, and road testing (including some very clear examples of the…

What's Your Eleanor? – UDMan Edition
/
I became car aware in the late 60’s and early 70’s when attending George J. Penney high School, which was located in the working class town of East Hartford. We never really had what you would call a good car (one that was almost new) because we were a rather large clan, with 5 siblings.…

The Creepy, Creepy Mascots Of NAIAS

There were dancing girls, oh yes. There was an overabundance of techno and flashing lights. All of these are meant to leave an impression on you; to leave you going, “Wow!” and leave glitzy thoughts within your head.
