Just because

A 1934 Packard 12 Speedster



Via the marvelous Seraphic Secret blog.

Update: Inspired by friend and commenter Jonah's observations in the comment section, here's a 1949 Delahaye. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!

What about those Delahayes? I know they're French, but swap in a 302 Ford, a mild chop and some phat rims YO! Pimpin' bro.

Cool! Both of them!

Wow, that Delahaye is something else! Have I seen it in an old Merrie Melody cartoon? It looks familiar, and I know I've never seen one in real life . . .

Anon: It does look a little like something from a cartoon, doesn't it?

'Because' is all the reason that's needed.

Beautiful cars, and I do understand they were state of the art mechanically in their day. But all my practical self can think is points, tie rod ends, valve adjustment, lubing the chassis. I absolutely loved my used 70 911s when I was 25 to 36 years old but I've dropped my last motor and changed out my last clutch. It's all AC, auto trans and electric windows from here on out.

Gorgeous vehicles!

The Delahaye looks like something from "Who Framed Roger Rabbit".
