The famous or infamous Af/VK Pontiac ads. These guys were the masters. https://www.hagerty.com/articles-videos/articles/2019/04/11/fitzpatrick-and-kaufman-best-pontiac-ads?fbclid=IwAR1nKvavGhZpFuE0g7AFQ_p1aoLg4l03Q8bLjAMArRNh7f8__OjFJRhyQaY
Not even kidding when I say we just did a major service on one of these. Great car in person and doesn't get nearly enough consideration for being an outstanding car aside from the Lamborghini community.
You do the 350 or a 400? How the back of the roof is handled with all the tumblehome and pillars is really nice.
Alfa Tipo 33 influence on the Italian 'wedge' school of design https://petrolicious.com/articles/how-the-curvaceous-alfa-romeo-tipo-33-gave-rise-to-the-wedges-of-the-1970s?fbclid=IwAR1BQnrAWyERx8Mx88L4bE87TJua1Fj03kSztKmzq41nfeWX4lzI_azJrB0
TR7. I'm reminded by G. Giugiaro's comment: when he first saw it at the 1975 Geneva motor show, designer Giorgetto Giugiaro paused and stared at the TR7, then walked around the other side and gasped, exclaiming: "Oh my God! They've done it to the other side as well." Just sayin'
I remember being very disappointed when the TR7 debuted after the brain trust at Triumph managed to ignore/mangle/butcher Pete Brock's lovely TR250K built for Kas Kastner years earlier... Image Unavailable, Please Login
Is there anybody working today who can create this kind of art? I wouldn't be surprised if the answer is no. This stuff is so fantastic.

As if we haven’t had quite enough of this, but here’s one last POV of the ‘Cybertruck’ https://www.autoblog.com/2019/12/10/tesla-cybertruck-design-experts-critique/?ncid=edlinkusauto00000016
John, who in the hell is in charge of the GM truck design studio; clearly they never went to design school!! These 2019 & 2020 Chevrolets are evolving into Hot Wheels caricatures! I'm thinking they're smoking Lexus front end stuff.... Image Unavailable, Please Login
The answer is yes I know all of them. Several are very close friends. They all are graduates of top design schools with many years of professional vehicle design experience. I'll leave it at that. On another note, the Suburban was awarded with a star on the Hollywood walk of fame earlier this week. How many vehicles have had that distinction? https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a30152850/chevy-suburban-walk-of-fame/ https://hypebeast.com/2019/12/chevrolet-suburban-hollywood-walk-of-fame-star
What about the Plymouth Suburban..??? Produced from the 40's - '70's. No love there... but I guess it wasn't a movie star like the 'Black Chevy Suburban'.
You're durn tootin' ! That is a very bad imitation of the almighty spindle grill. This is how it is suppose to be done on things tall... Image Unavailable, Please Login
I don't agree with @noone1 often, but here we see eye to eye. Although I know we are in the minority, I am one that actually LOVES the design. It's okay if you think i'm deranged.
