I arbitrarily chose a few pages to photograph, and got lucky with the shot of von Hannstein with the Spyder prototype. (Turns out Daddy knew him during his own racing days, so I was interested to see that I'd accidentally taken a pic of this page.) I DID NOT happen to photograph any of the Rallye article pages, but lo and behold, there is a photo of a Triumph driven by Gatsonides, with whom Daddy drove to win the Alpine in 1956. Another fun coincidence in this issue! This looks like the Alpine to me, but Gatso wasn't as fortunate in 1958 as the photos will show you. This issue has 80 numbered pages and is in very nice condition. I very purposely photographed the Table of Contents so you could see how much is in the issue.

Jaguar takes on AMG with Special Ops division
Thu, 12 Jun 2014By Phil McNamara Motor Industry 12 June 2014 16:02 Jaguar Land Rover today announced a new Special Operations division, tasked with launching 'extraordinary, outstanding' cars, according to the unit's boss John Edwards. It might sound like a crack commando team from a Hollywood blockbuster, and that's not a bad analogy. The Special Ops team will be a small, but growing unit able to react to niche product opportunities.
NYC carriages about to go extinct?
Fri, 18 Apr 2014If you love taking horse-drawn carriage rides in New York City, you best hurry -- they might be replaced with new horseless carriages by next year. At the New York auto show Florida-based car restoration firm The Creative Workshop introduced an eight-passenger electric horseless carriage designed to replace today's horse-drawn carriages. The company says its car blends “early 20th-century style, nostalgia and romance with 21st century eco-technology, comfort and safety,” calling the Horseless eCarriage the first brass-era-type car in more than 100 years.
The new Mercedes-Benz CLA Super Bowl spot
Wed, 30 Jan 2013It takes a certain kind of chutzpah for a German company that supplied the Nazi war machine to use a track that features the line, “I rode a tank / Held a general's rank / When the Blitzkrieg raged / And the bodies stank.” Apparently, Mercedes-Benz has exactly that sort of chutzpah. The premise, of course, is that you don't have to sell your soul to afford the company's stylish new CLA. That for under 30 grand, you too can dance with Usher, be pulled into red-carpet photographs with Kate Upton, and compete in Formula 1 races.
