Steve McQueen in Bullitt



Steve McQueen in Bullitt
Haulin' on The Streets of San Francisco

This is a fascinating photo of Steve McQueen hauling-ass through the San Francisco Marina in his Ford 1968 Mustang fastback from the movie Bullitt. He is on Marina Boulevard heading North toward the Golden Gate Bridge, and he just passed Fort Mason and Safeway.

I tried to find the exact vantage point, from the photo above. It is interesting to note that the Bank of America building (pictured on far right) was being erected in 1967-1968 and you can see its skeleton in the photo above, and see it as it is today in the picture below.

Chevy Introduces The All-New 2014 Corvette Stingray


The Return of The Stingray

Chevy Introduces The All-New
2014 Corvette Stingray

Last  week we took a look at Steve McQueen and the original Corvette Stingray which was introduced in 1965, and today, Chevy introduced the all-new Corvette and they brought back the Stingray designation. Below is a photo of the original Stingray from 1965 with the all-new 2014 Stingray.









7 Generations Of Corvette

The image below showcases the 7 generations of Corvette. How do I feel about the all-new Corvette? I have mixed emotions. It looks really beautiful, but it seems to be missing something? It kind of has too much of an eighties Trans-Am/Firebird look, or something?  Methinks the A Pillar being painted black is throwing me off. In all fairness, I am reserving all judgment until I have had a chance to drive and see one in person.
