Frankencuda http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/11/troy-brumbalows-frankencuda-design-by.html which is said to be int he 5th Fast and Furious movie, and corroborated http://fast-and-furious-5-movie-trailer.blogspot.com/2010/08/fast-and-furious-5-movie-pictures.html but my guess it's just a cameo split second moment... not more than 20 seconds screentime.

Ralph Lauren garage was just photographed by Vanity Fair

A tour of Ralph Lauren’s car collection is up for auction for charity, and the estimated tour is $150,000. That’s right, $150,000 to look at–not to own–the vintage Ferraris, Porsches and a 1936 Bugatti Atlantic, which is valued at north of $30 million. As the bidding description states, “You and a friend will receive a tour of this extraordinary private collection of classic cars given by Ralph Lauren himself.” The day ends with a ride in the 1936 Bugatti. The winner also get a signed copy of “Speed, Style, and Beauty: Cars from the Ralph Lauren Collection.”

Having some quality car-talk time with Ralph would be an experience to remember. But for $150,000? For that amount, I think I would rather buy my own Porsche or Ferrari. This is, however, for a cause, and someone may well hit the estimate. Even if they don’t, the tour is likely to raise a large chunk of change. So far there have been four bidders and the top bid is $42,500

Vespa calendar famous people, John Wayne, Cary Grant, Raquel Welch, Charleton Heston, Geraldine Chaplin

Thanks to Tim for sharing! Vespa had a damn good idea with this calendar, the added exposure and free advertisign they got by giving or loaning the scooters to famous people while they made movies was a brilliant idea, and far less costly than getting the stars paid to endorse.

Jack also founded the famous Cotton Club

Cool airplanes interest almost everyone.

I wasn't sure what the aircraft on the ground was (above it you see the B52 that it used for piggy back rides to test altitude) , but 3 readers used the comment feature to let me know it was the Northrop HL 10, used to do flight research on aircraft design for unpowered reentry from space, utilizing the speed of falling to create lift for the controlled flight of the spacecraft. More interesting than the facts of it's intended R&D use, is that it was the featured spacecraft the Million Dollar Man tv show appeared to use as the crash vehicle that made it necesary to create the bionic man. Just a fun tidbit. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northrop_HL-10

Gen. Patton transferring from plane to car

In the photo are Gen Bradley, Hodges, Eisenhower and Patton in the short time before WW2. Gotta be a one of a kind photo I think.
Thanks for the photo Chris! aka http://chrisoncars.com/
