The devilish red Countach makes for a wonderful background. That’s a true dream machine! Have a nice weekend my friend!! Best Abel

It’s a brute of a car ! Hope you are enjoying your weekend.

I wish you are enjoying too! Best, Abel

The "Airporter" is what was used by hotels and tourist resorts to move guests around, BEFORE the advent of the rental car bus / coach. They have 3-4 doors or more on each side, and usually are station wagons (for luggage) and are not limousines. I have al...

They are part of a long gone era of travels I guess. But what wonderful sight they make still today. I like the watches you choose for each of them. Well played!! Hagwe! Abel

Wasn’t there a Checker Airporter as well, whatever that was called? 😊 Some great choices but I have to say that the VH definitely has to have me prefer the last combination 👌🏻👏🏻

Not my picture though. Love it! Cazalea ...

The combinations and vehicles are epic but that Scania is simply next level! Do you still drive it?

My dream car is something time has been erasing - bringing fine examples to rust and dust. It is so costly to maintain a vintage car. Here it is, the old W123 model. Mercedes W123. Credit: Livecarmodel But why? It’s not the fastest, most lux, or state-of-...

My dad owned a 1947 Chevrolet Fleetline in the 1950's. I was just a kind but I enjoyed when my dad kept me seated on his legs and let me drive the wheel of that big car while ... he managed the pedals and changed gears. This is something unthinkable to ma...

He has learned me how to drive a car in this MB . I will never forget that car ever .

I have never driven the W123. One day I hope I will. The steering wheel and seats look so classic.

In 1982 my grandfather acquired a 230E W123 … i still regret the day i let it go 😪. As a young kid i loved to sit in the rear, later on in the front and at the age of 15 my grandfather let it drive me from time to time. When i turned 18 he bought me a bra...  

The aesthetic of this car is so elegant, sleek and well proportioned. That is one beautiful stunning car, back then, and even more so today. I hope you will find a great example one day. I am keeping my eyes out for a day when I find one in a great condit... 

… find this metalloc green one equipped with: Electric Sunroof Headlight wipers Green interior 4 speed manual Front seats with nets at the back Headrests on the rear seat. Give me a call first … still remember the exact spec of my granddads .. 😔

. . . no contemporary American sedan offered that essential luxury ;-) . . .

Adding 5th was an option those days 😁. Some automatic transmission as well, 3 speed i believe … not sure.

If i come across one yes I will instantly contact u, or Nico if i cannot reach u here.

For awhile I was working down in this neighborhood and drove past this poor car every day. Effective advertising perhaps, but painful no matter how often I saw it. We published information used by body shops to repair cars, and at that time our company's ...  

Wow it looks like art!

Talking with my friends I’ve expressed many times my love for the classic american models. Now, if I have to choose my all time favorite car... Mercedes 500 SL 80’s. It would be perfect with other classic. Great weekend. ...  

. . . Pagoda. I recall poring over the '68 MB catalog when Dad was contemplating buying a car that year. The 280SL captured my imagination. Radial tires were standard equipment - radical then. "Dad, let's get this one!" "Sorry, kid, it seats only two. We ...

I know that feeling !

Ever taken it to the Panamericana? 😁🤞🏻

You share an array of cars I remember so much which also filled my dreams when I was young. Most of those cars I could only admire through photographs in magazines and in films as very few of them arrived to my land. In my case I have two categories of ca...  

The DB5 with your Rolex 5508 is the perfect combination ! Your Jaguar S-Type in British Racing Green looks good and was in my opinion the last of cars with Jaguar signature styling. As for your Mustang, it’s a classic dream for any collector. Have a great... 

It´s a modest family car but with a smooth and comfortable ride and a big engine (V-8, 4 Liter, 280 bhp) which I enjoy driving on week ends only. Thank you again my dear friend and enjoy a beautiful weekend! Best, Abel

You guys must have done a great job!

We love this car too as it was a project which took several years to finish it and was shared with my son who worked very hard sourcing parts, taking the engine to a workshop to rebuild it and the body to another to fix it, painting, etc. The finished car...

Hi Well I liked my MX5 so much, I bought a second of the same version. But if we're talking unlimited money I'd rather like a Bristol, rather undersated idiosyncratic cars. A late model 411 would be good - with perhaps a bit of modernisation. Or perhaps l...
