#CA037


Hard to find any decent information on this one.
I did find a page that had specs and a bunch of pictures, though.



#CA038


Nice article at Farland Classic Restoration

Lunare: "Cool, looks like some futuristic thing out of Buck Rogers or Flash Gordon."



#CA039


This is the fully autonomous Renault Project XY-2. It has no windows providing complete
privacy for two people as the car takes them wherever they want to go.
Nice article on it here



#CA040


The Vivant was designed by Herb Adams, considered the father of the GTO and Firebird.
Great Motortrend article



#CA041


This strange looking vehicle is the 1979 Herzog Conte Schwimmwagen.
It's an amphibian car, meaning you can drive it on land or water ..at least,
that was the plan which didn't work out so well as it never got past a prototype.

Here's a nice article from Curbside Classics, including a few pictures.



#CA042


A 1936 Bugatti 57G "Tank" won the 1937 Le Mans race and later set many land speed records.
There were only 3 built and the only one to still exist is at the Simeone Foundation Automotive Museum.
Article and pictures

This picture is NOT an original but rather a recreation that was sold through Sotheby's for $159,500.
Here's the auction page with some photos.



#CA043


This is the 1951 Buick Le Sabre, concept car designed by Harley Earl.
Good article with some cool pics here at Hemmings.
Wiki Page

Fre: "Very interesting article. I love cars and this is one reason why ...the jet theme was sheer brilliance... naming it Le Sabre after the F-86 Sabre jet fighter, that had swept back wings plus all the other additions he added to resemble the jet. My fav thing is the back oversize "taillamp" that resembles a lit afterburner."
