Vintage beauties - 30's cars *Imageheavy*
 
So, Jay Leno was on Top Gear. So after watching that, I tuned in to his website, Jaylenosgarage.com, and was riveted by the features on old Duesenbergs and Bugattis. So, I started looking at thirties' cars, and I though I'd just share some of them with ya. Credit does, of course, go to the photogs. Anyone want anything taken down, just say so.

First off, Duesenbergs:

This one is called The Twenty Grand Duesenberg, because it cost the first owner 20,000 dollars - in 1933.

The photos of these two cars I got frem here:Duesenberg the Mightiest American Motor Car, by Kid Deuce on Flickr

A 1937 JN Berline. More odd than beautiful, but, in here anyway.

Another JN. Apparently, this one was once owned by Clark Gable.

I like Jay's Packard that was once owned by Phil Hill. The Beverly Coupe Duesy is badass too!

http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/9607/pbt0201.jpgNow, this is how a car should look.

Damon@tirerack Aug 10, 2009 07:50 PM

I'd take any one of these over a stable of newer, faster cars anyday.

Zorro Aug 10, 2009 08:17 PM

I've seen several of these cars for real. I actually recognize the Meadowbrook Concours in one of those pics.

Saying they are gorgeous is a wild understatement. The size, the presence, the elegance, the lack of compromise ... these cars are just astonishing.

One that I would love to actually see is a Bucciali TAV ... hot damn does it look gangsta!

Man, I love all these badass old school royalty-mobiles. I'm getting all hot and bothered just thinking about how rad the Pebble Beach Concours is going to be this year. Hopefully I'll have a lot of pics to contribute to this thread after this coming weekend...

Posted these last year, but looks similar to a local collector's garage :D

/\ Nice! That old cigarette lorry is fantastic! The three Bugattis as well, and the Cord, and the Airflow, and....
I suppose this also means that you're pushed back to second place on the "South African dudes with way too many cars" list... ;)

That Bucciali is insane! If the Devil drove in the thirties, that was his car.

Alzilla: You must bring back many pictures. This is your task.

All those images with the vehicle names on the bottom, I lifted from this gentleman on flickr: sjb4photos-catching up. Give his portfolio a look, quite a lot of nice motors in there.
