Ford Transit Supervan 1

Cars

"There's something deliciously audacious about the very idea of a Mk 1 Ford Transit with an F1 engine installed. And look at the first edition of Ford’s promotional Transit. It looks every bit of the burly 1970s monster that it "

Porsche: the sum of its parts

Cars

Spirit of the Seventies

Cars

"Something strange happened in the early seventies. In fact, quite a lot of strange things happened in that part of a weird decade. But in the motoring industry – it just so happened that some of the most creatively imagined, outrageously "

Chrysler Diablo Concept

Cars

"It's a while since we ran a Jetsons inspired American land-yacht. Here's one of the best. The Chrysler Diablo is the result of an unholy match between Detroit and styling house Ghia - via the famous penmanship of designer Virgil "

On Any Sunday: The Next Chapter

Citroën M35

James Garner: Racer

Cars People

"It's ironic that we featured Francois Hardy recently. A few of weeks ago James Garner, her co star in Grand Prix, John Frankenheimer's flawed motorsport classic from 1966, died peacefully at the impressive age of 86. Here's a flavour of the film. "

Bike Crush: Honda Gold Wing – Stripped

Bikes

"I always had the feeling that Honda's staple tourist superstar the Gold Wing would look better naked.  And this example certainly confirms our intuition. Spotted recently on Bike Exif - it appears that this 1975 GL 1000 was built for an Italian "

Bikesploitation: The Glory Stompers

Bikes Culture

"Not sure how we missed this one. Glory Stompers is probably the most atrocious bikesploitation flick we ever saw. It’s not even really salvaged by the appearance of Dennis Hopper - who in most cases can carry the entire "

Dodge D-Dart

Cars

"When I was 19 I drove a 1966 Dart across the states - from Santa Cruz California to Boston, Massachusetts. We're not really sure wether one can retrospectively be arrested a few decades after an admission for which there is no evidence. "
