Feel the power of the jungle with the new Panther from Mastoriti. Available as a cabriolet and a hardtop fastback, the Panther is sleek and stylish, and guaranteed to thrill. Hear the roar of the powerful V8 engine and leave boring behind.
Can you tame the Panther?

Hey Flickr, it's been a while! The white Panther is a model I first built years ago, back when LEGO still had the 'DesignByMe' thing running. It was based on the old default Digital Designer car which I made some modifications too.
I've been meaning to give it a bit of a refresh for a long time now, and while I was doing it I thought I'd build another one to go with it. So there you have it. I'm pleased with the results, especially the hardtop one. I'll probably make some more variations based on this platform now, because it's pretty cool and I could see a few directions I could take with it.

Jean-Albert Grégoire, polytechnicien et docteur en droit, créa Tracta en 1927, pour exploiter son brevet de joint homocinétique.
Au printemps 1955 il débute l'élaboration d'un prototype de voiture de sport dans les locaux de Tracta à Asnières.
Il envisage, après des essais concluants, de la présenter en mars 1956 à Genève, mais finalement, sa présentation est avancée de deux mois, et eut lieu le 15 janvier de la même année à Dearborn (siège historique de Ford-USA) à l'International Sport Car Show. En effet, lancer sa voiture en première mondiale aux States, grand débouché commercial potentiel fut une opportunité à ne pas manquer, que l'ingénieur s'empressa de saisir. Malheureusement, le 25 décembre, le prototype est accidenté sur l'Autoroute de l'Ouest... tout semblait compromis mais grâce à un travail acharné, le prototype fut réparé et bien présenté à Dearborn trois semaines plus tard.
La carrosserie du cabriolet Grégoire-Sport est l'oeuvre du carrossier Chapron. Dessinée par Carlo Delaisse, elle est caractérisée par un empattement fort court et un porte-à-faux très important ; en effet, le moteur, comme dans la Hotchkiss-Grégoire, occupe une position en porte-à-faux avant. De l'avant elle présente une grande calandre grillagée, rappelant quelque peu celle des Hotchkiss Monceau et Agay présentées au Salon de Paris 1954. C'est indéniablement une voiture élégante bien qu'elle manque d'ampleur. L'habitacle est tendu de cuir. Les roues fil sont des Robergel. La finition générale est impeccable comme toujours chez Chapron. La mécanique est celle de feue la berline Hotchkiss-Grégoire mais dopée par un compresseur Constantin à 125 ch. Pourtant, si elle connut un succès d'estime lors de l'exposition, on ne peut vraiment pas parler de succès commercial : la Grégoire-Sport souffre de ses techniques de fabrication artisanales et d'avant-garde (chassis et carcasse coulées, carrosserie formée à la main, compresseur Constantin hors de prix) mais aussi de ce qu'il n'existe aucun réseau d'après vente pour elle.

Salon Rétromobile 2016. Paris
Le cabriolet 300 S présenté par Mercedes pendant le Rétromobile 2016 a une sorte de rôle institutionnel.
En effet, Sa notoriété est liée au chancelier Adenauer qui l'a utilisée dans le cadre de ses fonctions publiques si bien qu'on a fini par surnommer cette auto "L'Adenauer" du nom de cet illustre homme politique.
Convertible 300 S presented by Mercedes during Rétromobile 2016 plays a kind of institutional role.
Indeed, Its notoriety is related to the chancellor Adenauer who used it within the framework of his civil services so that one ended up calling this car “Adenauer” of the name of this famous politician.

By the 1960s, this pre-war Horch had become something of a rarity. Even so, with his typical ‘finder’s luck’ Ghislain Mahy managed to acquire three: two type 780s, of which only 303 were built, and one Horch 853, of which 950 were made between 1936 and the start of the Second World War. After the war, the Horch factory in Zwickau was on the eastern side of the Iron Curtain and was converted to production of the less impressive Trabant.
Mahy’s Horch 853 was first bought in 1937 by the Austrian actor Willi Forst. Forst’s starring roles in melodramatic box-office hits made him hugely popular with the public and brought him to the attention of the Nazis, who saw him as a useful propaganda tool. Like his co-star, Marlene Dietrich, he was able to resist their blandishments, but as a result he soon found himself out of favour with the regime – and out of work. His cabriolet with its fine leather seats passed into military hands and saw service in occupied Belgium, where it was abandoned in a barn when the Germans withdrew in 1944. By the time Mahy tracked it down some two decades later, it was on the point of being sent to the scrapyard.
Or tracked down its body, at least. Its original giant 4.9 liter engine had been replaced by a much smaller Standard, which swam in the oceans of space under the bonnet. This was far more economical to run than the huge straight 8 that had once needed 22 litres of petrol per 100 kilometres to give this powerful cabriolet its speed. Not long after the 853 was installed at the Winter Circus, Mahy was asked if he would be prepared to parade the car through the streets of Ghent to promote The Longest Day, a star-studded film about the Allied invasion of Normandy in 1944. Ghislain had been given a bit-part as the driver of the German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel, played by Werner Hinz. In the film, Mahy drove Rommel home in the Horch 780 to celebrate his wife’s birthday, not knowing it was the eve of D-Day. Using the same Horch to drum up interest for the film seemed like a logical choice. But the stubborn Mahy, having just manoeuvred the car into its new position in the garage, was unwilling to manoeuvre it out again. As a result, he rode in the parade with his Horch 853, cruising the 2.5 ton German giant through the streets at a snail’s pace. The tiny Standard engine just couldn’t go any faster!

I was given a new Golf to play with for one night, so it was a real challenge to get all the photos I wanted in the space of a couple of hours especially because most of the time was spent travelling between locations.
No photoshop on this one, just rigged and straight from the camera.
