Design #262. The Man with the Golden Gun

 

atelier ying, nyc.

 

There's the good old days of the British Rai, and also the good old days of early Bond (as apologist) for the era of plain, old fashioned espionage.

 

Guzzling gallons of high octane alcohol and living it up are key themes of Ian Fleming's short life.

 

Bond receives a full briefing of the situation. Then local money and a survey map are deposited into the glove compartment of a fast, but beaten up 1960 Sunbeam Alpine sports car, which is customized with built-in bar containing Walker's Deluxe Bourbon, an ice bucket and highball glasses. Bond carries his own Moreland Specials. On the passenger side, a vanity mirror conceals a bottle of Chanel No. 5, and a gun compartment for the adventure-hungry Mary Goodnight.
