The Godfather and the Pelican.
Distinctive hood ornaments were in fashion well into the 1950s in American automobiles. But, historians say, Packard Motor Car Co. patented 28 hood ornaments, or mascots, more than any other American car maker. (1)
The Godfather
“In the 1972 movie “The Godfather” (Francis Ford Coppola) Don Vito Corleone (The Godfather) is taken to the cemetery in this very hearse, a 1948 Henney Landau 3-way Hearse. Henney Body, of Freeport, Illinois produced a total of 1,942 professional cars in 1948, the majority of which were hearses and ambulances.” (2). “By 1934 Henney had abandoned assembly of their own chassis and were building on the chassis of Packard and others.” (3).
“356 cu. in., straight eight; 160 BHP @ 3600 rpm; 3-speed manual transmission; 156” wheelbase; curb weight 6,100 lbs; $6,735 when new” (2).
The Pelican
In reading about the many Packard hood ornaments, I’ve learned that there is considerable disagreement as to whether this particular bird is a pelican or a cormorant. While I don’t pretend to know the real answer (and am in no way a car expert), I did find the following:
“The Packard Family's coat of arms [which featured a pelican] was adopted by the Packard Motor Car Company in 1928 after the death of James W. Packard, builder of the first Packard in 1899.
The Packard Pelican hood ornament was first used in 1932 on the ninth series cars. There were many different variations of this design from 1932 until it was last used in 1957. This hood ornament evolved from the pelican on the Packard coat of arms.
In 1939, Packard Motor Car Co. called the pelican hood ornament on the seventeenth series a Cormorant for the first time. Many owners sent letters to Packard in 1939 and during the years after, disapproving of the name Cormorant. In 1951, Packard changed the name of the hood ornament back to Pelican because of all these letters from loyal Packard owners.”(4)

"The super-powered, transverse-mounted, 2849cc V-6 lived behind the passenger compartment and had four valves per cylinder, operated by twin overhead cams on each bank... To demonstrate that Oxia was more than a showpiece, Peugeot invited journalists for a ride around a French track. With a Michelin test driver at the wheel, the supercoupe reached a speed of 217 mph, well above the company's claim."

Probably first Peugeot I took photo of and first Peugeot of which I upload photo here. It's hard to believe that this car is from 1988 and it's only one year younger than me.

It was a tradition at Fiat to develop convertible and coupé versions from family saloon models. Most of the 1500 convertibles and coupes were designed and built by Carrozzeria Pininfarina. A smaller amount at Carrozzeria Ghia. And there were some individual coachwork companies who made special versions in small numbers like Carrozzeria Allemano.

An interesting brochure - issued to car dealers and showrooms to show the range of advertising and publicity material that was available to support the launch of the new Austin A40 and A50 range, the Austin Cambridge, that was launched on 28 September 1954. It describes the items that were automatically free-issued as well as other items that could be obtained and these include printing blocks that allowed dealers to place adverts directly in publications such as local newspapers or magazines.
The range includes the brochures that would have been given to prospective purchasers, nationally issued adverts from Austin themselves, posters, folders and cards along with window banners. I suspect one interesting item would be the 'styling booklet "GS5 into Cambridge" showing how the car was designed from concept to production - strictly one per dealer! There is a name on many of the blocks showing the illustrator of the new model but I cannot decipher it.
Away from the hype - 'This new Austin will sell - and sell - and sell" - the A40 was not a big seller with sales of only around 30,00 until it was withdrawn in 1957. The A50, with a larger engine, sold better with 115,000 being built until 1957.
The brochure's cover uses the BMC 'rosette', the logo of the British Motor Corporation that was the result of the 1952 marriage between long term rivals Austin of Birmingham amd Morris Motors of Oxford.

How stylish is this? One of the Triumph stable - this the Vitesse 6 model with the convertable roof no less and still looking very smart despite my mental connotations of this model really being a few miles south of here and with the late great Thora Hird dumped in the passenger seat!
By the time this car was constructed Triumphs, a company that had been merged with Standard Motors in 1944 having been formed in Coventry as a pedal bike company in 1885, was part of Leyland Motors - indeed possibly just about the time they merged with BMC in 1968 to form British Leyland. The Vitesse, launched in 1962, was based on the successful Herald model introduced in 1959 and both were styled by Giovanni Michelotti. This was seen parked up in Otley, West Yorkshire, on a fine September day and is obviously much loved and well cared for.

As the title suggests, this alien spacecraft is inspired by the biodynamic designs of visionary industrial designer Luigi Colani. In retrospect, it actually has a very "Lilo and Stitch" feel.

Ref. 122.
Datsun 126X (1970).
Serie Mini-Mira.
Escala 1/64 (?).
Mira.
Made in Spain.
Años 70.
This model is a Spanish copy of the Matchbox Superfast nr.33 “Datsun 126x” released by Lesney in 1973.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Datsun (Nissan) 126X
"The 126X had a wedge shaped design with a forward-tilting cockpit canopy. The slots along the hoods center housed red, yellow, and green lights which lit up in accordance to what the vehicle was doing (accelerating, braking, or constant speed). The vehicle featured a rear-mounted 3-litre 6 cylinder power plant and 4-wheel drive.
The Nissan 126X concept of 1970 has to be one of the all time classic concept cars. Also displayed at the 1970 Tokyo Motorshow, the 126X had striking styling and many novel features. One such feature was a series of coloured lights which were fitted into the louvered center rib on the front of the car. The red, amber and green lights illuminated in series depending on whether the car was accelerating, cruising or braking in order to allow other road users, especially pedestrians, to gauge the vehicles approach. Technically the 126X was also unusual in that it was powered by a slanted and transversely rear mounted 3 litre version of the six cylinder L series engine. Styling was as dramatic from the rear as it is from the front. The 126X was modeled by Lesney Products in their Superfast range as it was by Aguti Toy of Argentina and SZE of China. The original 126X concept still exists and was recently used in a Nissan Design exhibition in Japan."
Lets all have a peaceful, sparkling, safe and dreamy holiday all over the world. Let the people you love know that you do. And take a moment to look proudly back on what you achieved this year.
All the best, Daniel Simon. California.
