Just enough shown to make some good guesses, but not enough to be sure. Hopefully this one is hard enough that our usualy suspects flounder a bit. 😉

I am a “car guy”… I love old cars.
Car Photo of the Day: Superleggera
Whenever I find myself in the presence of one of these cars I find myself attracted to this portion of their bonnets. Just something about the way the light plays on the shapes, and this wonderful “light” Italian script that acts like a punctuation mark on the car’s bold statement.
Do you know what car it is?
Car Photo of the Day: Rust never sleeps.
This old Ford Model T truck was sitting behind the barn at RPM when I stumbled upon it last spring. I was intrigued by the pattern of the rust stains on this fender. They showed the trails of previous precipitation and the fact that it was lightly raining when I was out there made it seem that much more poignant. Rust indeed never sleeps.
Road Photo of the Day: Gone
Not a great photo, due to the big blurry windscreen knob in the frame, but I was in a hurry to grab this still frame after this bit of movie-making:
That is Mark Collien and Francoise Reyns zooming by in my E-type. 😉
I really need to make some garage time to get my Jaguar prepped for the driving season. I haven’t done squat all winter!
Weird Seen: wtf?
This is a weird seen on I-5 southbound near Marysville, Washington. I think it calls for a caption contest. Write up yours and we’ll pick the best.
Quick Mystery Car Photo.
Yes, this car has appeared before as a CPotD and I’m sort of recycling it, but there is something about the lighting of this photo that I really like so I’m posting it. If you guessed at it last time let some of the others have a go. Meanwhile I’m behind the scenes digging up today’s CPoyD and writing a bit about it.
This should keep you busy for a bit. 😉
I also have some fun “Goolsbee News” updates coming for the family readers.
Car Photo of the Day: Mystery Car
This car was one car ahead of us, numerically, on the Monte Shelton rally last year, so I stared at it’s rear end for three days. It is a beautiful old car. Do you know what it is?
sfoskett guessed right: A Maserati Mistral. 1967 to be exact. I’ve relinked the original unretouched photo now (I photoshopped off the badges when originally posted)
Looks even better from the front, and the twin-plug DOHC six under the bonnet is pretty sexy too.
