C-type Jag was in the 1953 Carrera Panamericana... wow, no one would likely think of racing this fine of a car on roads that rough now

Poway Transmissions - Annual Motorhead Madness

Hell yes, never grow up, never grow old

 interesting heater controls, too bad news cars don't have controls that look as good as this... new plastic knobs all look the same, boring with no design thought beyond cookie cutter bean counter plain ugly

Best looking factory gauge pods I've ever seen

 Why were Vettes the only cars with igition system covers? Seems like a fine idea for noise supression of static to the radio

 Green shag carpet? Really? To hide the puke stains of the first time riders who get nausea from the ugly color?

 flip down tables... not a bad idea

Cool controls

 mid 60's Stang with early 70's Stang hubcaps, I've never seen that match up before

 These wrapped headers are pointing forward in a Pinto... it gives them all the needed room to get the collectors connected to the exhaust pipes

Modern Mopars have what is known as the "gunsight grill" but this Ford Fairlane grill center emblem seems to have beat them to the idea by 3 or 4 decades

Jaguar has given its mid-size XF saloon a face-lift and a brand new engine to bring it up to speed with the competition as well as the rest of the Jag range. Introduced in 2008, the XF was the first serious step by Jaguar toward shedding its traditionalist image and becoming truly competitive in its segment.History has shown that, given these two cars’ respective target demographics, the smaller, cheaper, sportier XF should really be more contemporary looking than the loping (but ultimately quite sporty) limousine that is the XJ. The front end now benefits from the sleeker

headlamps and upright grille that made their conceptual debut on the C-XF in 2007, but disappointingly only made production on 2010’s XJ. This is allegedly because then-owners Ford had rather lopsidedly already completed the production XF’s design before creating the striking CX-F concept to wow customers.This too is an expression of the brand’s independence as, under Ford ownership, horizontal vents were the strict reserve of Jaguar’s posher stable-mate, Aston Martin. The XF’s range was thus far limited to just three engines – a petrol V6, a diesel V6 (in two states of tune) and the petrol V8, either naturally aspirated or supercharged. With eco-consciousness becoming a major concern in the executive and luxury segments, Jaguar has answered the call with the XF’s first four-cylinder engine.

All models get an engine stop-start feature and have their six-speed automatic replaced with a far more advanced eight-speed unit as standard.

Sleek, sporting and sophisticated, the all-new Jaguar XJ brings a daring new spirit to automotive luxury. It offers a seductive mix of striking design, breathtaking performance and engineering without compromise.

The new Jaguar XJ is the epitome of fluid, contemporary automotive style. The elongated teardrop shape of the side windows establishes the car's silhouette and lies at the heart of its flowing design. And the new Jaguar XJ doesn't just look streamlined: it shares a drag coefficient of 0.29 with the Jaguar XF saloon, making them the most aerodynamic Jaguars ever.

Even if Jaguar has just unveiled a facelift for the old XJ, this is not the only news coming to us. In 2009 the company will unveil a totally redesigned model, with design cues taken from the latest C-XF Concept and from the upcoming XF sedan. Even if the new generation XJ will be built on the current aluminum platform, everything on the exterior will be changed.

More recently the 2010 Jaguar XJ was unveiled by late night funny man Jay Leno and the beautiful super model Claudia Schiffer. The all-new XJ is the first Jaguar model to be built using Jaguar’s aerospace-inspired aluminum body technology. The vehicle will be available with a choice of new ultra-efficient Gen III classification petrol and diesel engines consisting of a 3.0 Liter diesel V6, a 5.0 Liter naturally aspirated V8 as well as the almighty 5.0 Liter supercharged 8 cylinder power plant.

Awesome use of a hoodscoop to make an ugly car better looking
Sorry, I don't know where these came from anymore, but I bet they were from websites that I've posted from in the past month
