Our great friend and “head enthusiast” Brian Slark checking out the remarkable 1923 Scott Sprint Special. It was way ahead of its time and ultimately banned from racing for being too fast for the competition.

Cool people design cool motorcycles that draw cool people. What a wonderful world we live in!

RIP to Bobby Allison, legendary NASCAR racer and an original member of the “Alabama Gang”.

While known for victories on oval tracks, Allison exhibited considerable prowess on road courses as well. His former Stavola Brothers 1986-88 race car on display at the Barber Museum is a roadracing chassis and the last such chassis raced by Allison. Raced at Riverside and Watkins Glen, it is exhibited with Buick Regal bodywork, though it had been raced as a LeSabre in a red and white livery prior.

We offer our condolences to the Allison family and NASCAR fans around the world. Champions live in our hearts forever.

The Porsche 356, introduced in 1948, is widely regarded as the first production automobile by Porsche and set the foundation for the brand's future success. Designed by Ferdinand "Butzi" Porsche, the 356 features a sleek, aerodynamic shape that has become iconic in automotive history. Available in various body styles, including coupe and convertible, the 356 was powered by a rear-mounted flat-four engine, delivering a balance of performance and style. Its lightweight construction and agile handling made it a favorite among sports car enthusiasts and contributed to its success in motorsport during the 1950s and 1960s. Today, the Porsche 356 is celebrated by collectors and enthusiasts alike, representing a blend of classic design and engineering excellence that continues to influence modern Porsche modell. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
