Autoblog's years best photos

1937 Bugatti Atlantic Type 57sc at the Mullin museum

Historic races at Monterey

Love the paint scheme and the Barracuda looking custom Challenger. Too bad they don't have the guts to factory make a good Barracuda, I don't give a damn that the "Plymouth" brand doesn't exist... the car would have nothing in common with real 67-71 Barracudas anyway, beside a few retro looking design touches.
XK-SS Jags
1925 Bugatti Type 13 Brescia at the Mullin Automotive Museum that was pulled out of the lake recently, it had been dumped into the lake to avoid paying duties: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/01/1925-type-22-bugatti-pulled-out-of-lake.html

Is this a good photoshop swap? Or a 2nd photo from a good photographer? It's a photoshopped VW over the Stang

AJ scoped it out, and noticed that the bug is not completely hiding the Mustang's front fender
Same exact setting as the bottom photo, and the Mustang is smaller than the VW so it's possible that the vw is photoshopped over the stang

This VW was photographed by Iris Antonio according to the sources of the photo I've found .. but like AJ pointed out, the but is a clever photoshop that didn't quite mask the Mustang

Thanks AJ! "The mustang fender top is still visible in the VW "photo".

The factory 1967 test GTX that is famous for the great lengths that Chrylser Research and Development engineers went through to make the Silver Bullet (a name coined by Ro McGonegal and the Car Craft story specifically) nothing less than a factory-backed car purpose-built for STREET RACERING on Woodward Avenue; running 10.60s at 132 mph
or read Car Craft's write up (good one!) and full gallery http://www.carcraft.com/featuredvehicles/906_1967_plymouth_belvedere_gtx/index.html

Cool things from Underground Velo Blogspot

Looks like an enjoyable experience!
Wow. Where did it go? Wouldn't this be a car show stopper if you drove in with it?

Not the most elegant design, but I think the blunt look of serviceabity is spot on for a mobile car repair type of business

Hudson hot rod, but doesn't the hood and fenders evoke a Cadillac look?

only the greatest photographers have a portfolio of magazine covers

from http://www.art-dept.com/artists/mccurry/ and http://www.stevemccurry.com/main.php The portfolio of Steve McCurry is awesome and amazing. He is or was a photographer for National Geographic Magazine I requested permission twice by email to both websites, and haven't heard a thing from them...
