Lamborghini Weekend Edition – 1967 Lamborghini Miura
/
/
comments
You can’t do a Lamborghini Weekend without catering to the needs of the fans of the Miura. And they’re right, as the Miura remains one of the best-looking classic supercars in existence. It’s a shape that makes no excuses for itself, kinda like 1960s Sophia Loren. But I digress. It’s a nice way to digress,…

Lamborghini Weekend Edition – 1965 Lamborghini 350 GT

Now that we’ve gotten the 400th post 400GT out of the way, we can move back to the beginning. The 1963 350GT was Lamborghini’s first outing outside of tractor manufacturing, and it’s a striking piece of metalwork at that. This silver 1965 example, offered at RM Auction’s sale of the Don Davis Collection, isn’t one…

Lamborghini Weekend Edition – 1966 Lamborghini 400 GT

Just this week, Lamborghini unveiled their 50th Anniversary Edition Aventador, the LP720-4 50° Anniversario. It’s a bold yellow machine, and it suits both the tastes of Lamborghini and the people who buy them. Now, to congratulate the Italian automaker, my posts this weekend are Lamborghini-themed all around. And, there’s also a reason why I picked…

Orange you glad it's Friday? – 1969 AMC Rebel SST
/
/
comments
By all accounts, it’s been a pretty terrible week. With Boston getting messed up beyond comprehension and Waco getting blown to smithereens, I feel it’s my duty to post some good old American metal to help alleviate the stress of whatever it is that has been going on. This 1969 Rebel SST stands proud, with…

Truck Thursday – Lifted 2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ
/
/
comments
Last Truck Thursday, I featured a very beaten and used Mercedes-Benz Geländerwagen. It had also been lifted, and it looked like it could make short work of quite a bit of sticks. This Thursday, I’m posting a final-year XJ Cherokee I saw last week in my town, and it too features larger rubber than stock,…

On April 17, 1964, the Ford Mustang was born
/
/
comments
Ford just couldn’t wait for the 1965 model year, could they? They have to have been certain they had a winner in their hands, as the 64½ Mustang was unveiled five months earlier than other ’65 cars in Ford’s model lineup. But it was worth it, as the game was changed and ground was broken…

For Sale – 1964 B&Z Electra King is a true original
/
/
comments
“In case you thought you were a true enviro-buff, driving your useless hybrid trinket, ooh take a look at this – our storage dude has driven this electric runabout for 50 years.” Those are the convincing words of the seller, who has put this 1964 Electra King up for sale. It’s difficult to perfectly capture…

Streetwalker – 1991 Jaguar XJ40 Sovereign brings class to the forecourt
/
/
comments
I shot this for-sale feline around the same time as the outside-kept collection of Saabs. While I haven’t got the faintest idea if the owner of the Saabs is willing to let them go, this blue 1991 Jaguar Sovereign is being advertised for sale by the caravan dealer. By the looks of things, the Jaguar…

Concept Weekend Edition – The Golden Way: 1990 Chevrolet Corvette Nivola by Bertone
/
/
comments
The third Bertone piece today is a solid gold effort, again with Chevrolet mechanicals. The 1990 Nivola features the ZR1 powerplant, but instead of a simpler rebodying effort of a Corvette structure, the car has been re-engineered into a mid-engined configuration. It’s also apparently been shot at the same gravel pit where Bertone has gone…

Concept Weekend Edition – The Devil's Own: 1984 Chevrolet Ramarro by Bertone
/
/
comments
Still moving upstream with the Bertone concepts, the Concept Weekend continues. And like the Aria and Delfino featured previously, the 1984 Chevrolet Ramarro here is again a Marc Deschamps work. Yes, that is a Corvette C4 underneath the bold slab of green bodywork, and as a transformation it’s comparable to the Aria’s development from a…
