Pantera! Monday Machine
On my way home from work, driving through Escondido, I was passed by a rumbling green Pantera. This is a very rare cat indeed. The De Tomaso Pantera is an Italian sports car sold in America by Lincoln motor company in the early 1970s. Altogether, about 7,000 were produced. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Tomaso_Pantera I was reminded I had…

(updated!) Unkown Monday Machine #photo
This is a pretty cool car, but I don’t know what it is! Last seen in Oceanside, CA. (UPDATE) I found the car online. This is a Pontiac Catalina. And it looks like it is a 1963. The 1962 Catalina had the headlights side-by-side. In 1963 the headlights were stacked. The 1964 grill ran onto…

Fast Car
The Jaguar looked like speed. It’s lines were clean, smooth, and sexy. Like a woman’s leg or the small of her back. You could tell it was expensive: low and wide. The fine details enhanced this impression with a piece of chrome here and a high-intensity light there. Its Hartland exhaust rumbled with pressure, power…
