Mercedes-Benz A 320 - W 142 an Exotic Rare Car

Picture below is Mercedes-Benz A 320 - W 142, with a 3.4 litre 6 cylinder side valve engine fitted in its engine compartment.

The car was actually a prototype model of a luxury coupe and was not put into production because of Germany's involvement in World War II, which has led to the devastation of the company’s factories and other industrial facilities in the country.

This rare, exotic car sold for a whopping $350,000 AUD or about $275,000 USD at the end of the 2007 Melbourne International Motor Show auction event.via & via

Video of the Mustang Giugiaro Concept

Below is the video of Mustang Giugiaro Concept I wrote few days ago.


1937 Studebaker Coupe Express Pickup Truck

exotic car: studebaker coupe express

Picture above is an exotic car, 1937 Studebaker J5 Coupe Express pickup truck, that was completely restored by Jeff Rice of Ocala, Florida. This exotic car originally was created by using the Studebaker Dictator passenger car frame, and was powered by Studebaker's L-head six cylinder flathead engines and mated to a 3-speed manual transmission. But Jeff, the owner on the man behind the restoration put the 350 GM V8 engine to replace the original L engine.


Picture below is the same pickup as above, when it was found in the wood of Maine.
