The VW origins Porsche - Beetle or 356?

Yes alright a bit a photoshop fun with these images of images of Porsche 356 and early VW Beetle.  The idea was to show the VW origins of early Porsche but ironically what struck me was how incredibally different the proportions are. The Beetle is so clearly narrow, upright and familier, but just look how low and wide the 356 is.

More Polish motoring fun! The best Fiat 126 video...want one...

A Polish take on motoring. Concept cars, adverts and launch shots.

Japanese Italian job film poster.

An interesting take on a familiar, famous and much loved British film from 1969. Strangely it does not convey the feel of the film in the Poster, probably because none of the cast are shown? Worth a look though for its quirkiness.

Period Recaro seats advert from 1974 -

I really desire these seats nearly 40 years on.. as others do as a mint set goes for ££s in any condition. Could they look better that in an early 911S?  This is more original content not from elsewhere on the web not seen the light of day since the med 70s.

John Cobb at Brooklands - 4 wheels off the ground in a Napier

 

A true hero of the past. John Cobb in his epic Napier Railton gets all 4 wheels off the ground. no barriers... no helmets or belts, drum brakes & radial tyres. The most surprising part of the picture is the chap casually sitting o the wall on the inside of the corner.

how sideways? or vertical... in a pre '73 911 trying very hard.

I love this period shot of a 911 rally car at the most extraordinary angle, not side ways as such but great drama.
