Morris Minors, like this sixties example, are so cheap to run and so easy to repair that there are still a good number being used as everyday transport. If they don't start you can usualy get them going with the wind up handle. Lovely.

1967 Jaguar E-Type, If beauty can be ascribed to mechanical objects, it is here. Immensely fortunate people can still own and drive modern restorations and faithful reproductions of this thing of beauty.

Its heartbreaking to think of all the '58 Belvederes that were trashed in the making of the movie Christine. The actual Christine herself is a Plymouth Fury, a very similar looking model. These were too rare to go smashing up for the film so a lot of Belvederes and a few of the Savoy model too had to be sacrificed. Shame. I was about to put in a youtube clip of some of the destruction but now I won't, it's too painful to watch.

Wooden elements in automobile construction is a holdover from when carriages were actually made of mostly wood. I’ve heard of only one surviving car manufacturer that still uses wood for its platform although exotic wood veneers are still the material of choice when it comes to imparting a veneer of lux and exclusivity to expensive cars. In the late seventies a car designer and automotive journalist Robert Cumberford launched an ambitious project to build cars but succeeded only in building a prototype, the Martinique, powered by a BMW inline-six engine with 174 hp and uses a hydropneumatic suspension, steering, and brakes from Citroen. Reminiscent of classic 1930s sports car style, it weighs 2,990 lb, and is said to reach a top speed of 133 mph.

I don't have to tell anyone that this is a Ford model T, the damn fuckin' T Ford, a car more classical than most so-called classical cars!

Not heartbreaking as the fate of the Belvederes above, here is an example of the 1964 Lincoln Continental that they crunched in Goldfinger:

The question everyone asks about the original version of the Mini is;
Can you have sex on the back seat?
Some couples claim to have succeded, I would not want to try, this is an exccedingly small car. There is not a quarter inch of wasted space inside.


That squat format allows for some outrageous roadholding, the stunts in The Italian Job are just normal driving for this cocky little car.

My older brother bought a '63 Avanti in burgundy. He bought in in 1966 but it was very low mileage and in mint condition. He only drove it once a month or on special occasions. That thing was so beautiful. He loved it more than his wife ... according to her, lol.

This car (although not a fancy one ) was in one of my favorite horror movies of the 80's ....I think the car was a 78 Ford Pinto :)

Josef Ganz and his design, which Adolf Hitler saw at a car show in 1933, not long before he made his sketches for Ferdinand Porsche
