VINTAGE SHOTS FROM DAYS GONE BY! (Part 2)

Just hav'n a toke..on the boat.

 

Geez,what a beast that thing was. Check the engineering for all those massive drum brakes...Inboard!!!

 

Where's that Caddy now?

 

Abarth ?

 

Interesting Bus. Note the seeming lack of overhang at the rear!

 

Anybody know what these are????

 

Looks like an Austin A90 in right. 3000CC/180 CI. They could move,for their day (british,don't ya know! ;-))One raced at our local SAus track back in the day and held lap rec. for many years in class.Triple 45dcoe webers and lot of tricks. I had a ride in it once,local streets.It was as fast or better than a 289 Falcon GT,'67 model here.

 

Donald Campbell's "Bluebird" under wraps.

 

Maser Birdcage?

 

I look at these pictures(and appreciate the posts) and come to understand that even after 80-100yrs. most people are still not taught how to control,in most circumstances, and be at one with their motor vehicle. ie. nothing bloody changes.

 

Wild guess,based on what I think are Ferrari logos. Nose cones for ??

 

Yeah ! what we like...serious oversteer!

 

Photographer has a great eye.

 

Thanks Mate. The Maestro at Monaco in the Maser!! What more can I ask for.

 

Nah,,,,
