Judging from my overfilled Inbox, it seems as though this series may be quite popular. So without any further ado, here are some creations of Herr Doctor Ferdinand:
Given that I think that most Porsches are hideously ugly, it’s easy to see where I stand on which is beauty and which the beast.
As always, you may vote for your favorite (car, of course).
As Sundays at this address seem to have degenerated into discussions of beauty (with a little gratuitous leering thrown in — you animals), I had an idea for a new series: beautiful cars, suitably accessorized.

Next week (unless y’all hate this idea): another brand.
As Longtime Readers know, I have a stalking obsession errr weakness okay soft spot (so to speak) for ladies of the red-haired persuasion.

Sometimes, the passage of time isn’t all bad.
Last weekend, fiend Reader Mr. Lion jogged my memory about a certain car that I’ve always loved simply because it is so beautiful. (Forget actually driving one: they cost well over a million dollars, if you could find someone willing to part with theirs. Good luck.)
Anyway, here it is, the Ferrari 250 California Spyder, from 1958.
Ferrari made several variations of the 250 over the years. One of my favorites is the rather more conservative GTL Lusso:
