#ThrowbackThursday: The COOLEST TV Cars Ever!
The coolest TV cars….probably ever. If you’re lucky, your first car resembles a pair of tin cans tied together with string and held together with hope. But not if you’re a television character. On TV, no one drives a lemon. “Angel” 1967 Plymouth Belvedere GTX...#TBT: Eat My Dust!
Opie Taylor from The Andy Griffith Show, Richie Cunningham from Happy Days, the guy who directed Apollo 13, Backdraft, Willow, Cocoon and more—it’s Ron Howard, and nobody exemplifies the beating-all-odds American Dream like a child actor turned good adult actor, a...#ThrowbackThursday: Devil Car
Let me introduce you to Murdock and Jenny, the Scarlet Lady.

My best friend bought the cheapest car she could find, a supremely dark purple 1993 Buick Century Wagon with a luggage rack, fold-down back seats, a secret compartment and a hatchback that takes two people to open, one at the back and one at the glove compartment...Mustang Versus Charger: Steve McQueen in Bullitt

Steve McQueen played the quintessential American male, defending the weak in the Magnificent Seven (1960), jumping over barb wire barricades on a motorcycle with a hundred Nazis on your tailpipe in...#ThrowbackThursday: Autonomous Vehicles, Schwarzenegger, and The Sixth Day
On April 4th, Florida Governor Rick Scott signed a bill into law allowing autonomous cars to be tested on public roads without a licensed driver present. Recently, in Detroit, Google arranged a deal with Fiat Chrysler to install their self-driving technology in a new...#ThrowbackThursday: A ’50s Chevrolet Corvette
Imagine that classic image of the American astronaut navigating his ship through outer space and preparing for reentry, the front of the ship slowly glowing red as it enters the..
