1958 Mercury and 1962 Oldsmobile camera cars, from the French camera car specialist, Bernard Château

Born on 23 February 1933, Bernard Château began working in the early 60s for the Loca-Films corporation, where he began by preparing prop cars and camera cars for shootings. Having left the company a few years later, he chose to become the driver of Lumex or Pierre Durin cars.

He had a 1962 Oldsmobile Sky Rocket that had been transformed into a camera car in the 1960s by Pierre Durin for his company Loca Films. It was equipped with Citroën hydraulic suspension, a 3-speed automatic transmission, and a 325-horsepower 8-cylinder V Rocket engine from 1961.

How wonderful! Someone painted their 1924 Citroen in tribute to Sonia Delaunay

I posted about her just a year ago http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2016/01/a-couple-cars-from-20s-with-fashion.html

Not an exact paint scheme replication... but very cool to see!

Cool vehicles found on truquetructruk.tumblr.com

a variety of things I saw at the Muckenthaler Concours

New cars seem to all have one color interiors, 2 at most if the carpet is contrasting the upholstery. It wasn't always as drab and boding as it it now. It was far more colorful in the 50's and 60's

the red item is a very early Model T tire lock.. no way you'd steal a Model T with one of these on the wheels.

one of two baby hemis at the Muckenthaler show, the other was a DeSoto

the spare tire hidden in the inner fender in this station wagon surprised me.

I don't remember ever seeing  Walker coachbuilder tag before

variety of cool images from Le Container

I can't tell how the front blades aren't hitting the ground, but, obviously they haven't

interestingly some of the very first airplanes that could fly intercontinental were named "spirit of" and "city of"

immediately reminded of http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2012/05/1983-jawa-ice-motorcycle-only-eastern.html
