understated advertising from icons of racing and hot rodding, Keith Black, Yenko, Lil John Buttera, McCreary

Cool stuff from Ze Last Chance Garage


BMW plant 1923


John was catching some light under all four tires

When is the last time you saw advertising for a Nash?
Nice streamlining around the spreader bar


I'd love to see a full gallery about this racecar!

What a beauty!

No idea why the rotary engine is flanked by elephant tusks.


Goofy 60's kooky kustom show cars. I dig the Woodlight headlights on the one below





All bent out of shape, and I doubt it landed on the rubber
What an idea, a scooter that is strong enough to pull a small teardrop

Did you know that the last 50 Yenko Duece's made were built by Hurst under direction of Don Yenko?

50 were made by Hurst,
.... 10 were made in Hugger Orange: but only one was delivered with Hurst 5 spokes, only one was made with white hockey stripes
.... 10 were made in Sunflower Yellow
.... 10 were made in Citrus Green
These colors were called Springtime Colors
...the remaining 20 were a mix of Cranberry Red and Fathom Blue

Linda Vaughn was in Hurst's parking lot after they were made, she was "practicing" on them, and doing burnouts... Muscle Car Review August 2010 issue, pages 74 to 78
