This path leads to the lake. We can barely see the Alps in the background. Geneva and the Saleve are located at the right of the image at the opposite side of the lake.
12935 Auburn 851, Supercharged Cabriolet.
This car was manufactured by the Auburn Automobile Company based in Auburn, Indiana. This company also build Cords and Duesenbergs.
The 1935 Auburns were acclaimed for both their art deco styling and outstanding performance. Their flowing design emphasizes the long hood and recessed radiator. In the deluxe models, the external stainless steel exhaust pipes indicate the presence of a Schwitzer-Cummins supercharger that increases horsepower from 115 to 150. Coupled with a
Columbia two-speed rear axle, this car can achieve speeds of 100 mph.
Unfortunately, the ongoing Great Depression limited car sales and the Auburn Automobile Company ceased production in 1937. Less than 50 of these cars remain

1935 Auburn 851 boat-tailed speedster, in not subtle YELLOW.
To emphasize the smooth transfer from the previous 5 black and red images of the Cadillac V-16 four door convertible, sharp eyed viewers will find it in the Auburn's headlight. Both cars are major conspicuous consumption during the depths of the Great Depression but thank God that this spectacular rolling art was saved and not used to make battle ships, or left to rust in some back yard.
We hoi palloi with cameras are allowed to share (but not touch) though most of us would find it difficult to pay for the paint jobs (up to and sometimes exceeding $100,000) of these beauties.
German submarine U-995 is a Type VIIC/41 U-boat of Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine. She was laid down on 25 November 1942 by Blohm & Voss in Hamburg, Germany, and commissioned on 16 September 1943 with Oberleutnant zur See Walter Köhntopp in command.
German Type VIIC/41 submarines were preceded by the heavier Type VIIC submarines. U-995 had a displacement of 759 tonnes (747 long tons) when at the surface and 860 tonnes (850 long tons) while submerged.[1] She had a total length of 67.10 m (220 ft 2 in), a pressure hull length of 50.50 m (165 ft 8 in), a beam of 6.20 m (20 ft 4 in), a height of 9.60 m (31 ft 6 in), and a draught of 4.74 m (15 ft 7 in). The submarine was powered by two Germaniawerft F46 four-stroke, six-cylinder supercharged diesel engines producing a total of 2,800 to 3,200 metric horsepower (2,060 to 2,350 kW; 2,760 to 3,160 shp) for use while surfaced, two Brown, Boveri & Cie GG UB 720/8 double-acting electric motors producing a total of 750 metric horsepower (550 kW; 740 shp) for use while submerged. She had two shafts and two 1.23 m (4 ft) propellers. The boat was capable of operating at depths of up to 230 metres (750 ft).
The submarine had a maximum surface speed of 17.7 knots (32.8 km/h; 20.4 mph) and a maximum submerged speed of 7.6 knots (14.1 km/h; 8.7 mph).
When submerged, the boat could operate for 80 nautical miles (150 km; 92 mi) at 4 knots (7.4 km/h; 4.6 mph); when surfaced, she could travel 8,500 nautical miles (15,700 km; 9,800 mi) at 10 knots (19 km/h; 12 mph). U-995 was fitted with five 53.3 cm (21 in) torpedo tubes (four fitted at the bow and one at the stern), fourteen torpedoes, and three anti-aircraft guns. The boat had a complement of between forty-four and sixty
At the end of the war on 8 May 1945 she was stricken at Trondheim, Norway. She was surrendered to the British and then transferred to Norwegian ownership in October 1948. In December 1952 U995 became the Norwegian submarine Kaura and in 1965 she was stricken from service by the Royal Norwegian Navy. She then was offered to the German government for the ceremonial price of one Deutsche Mark. The offer was turned down; but the Boat was saved by the German Navy League, DMB, where she became a museum ship at Laboe Naval Memorial in October 1971.
Two of the four external chrome exhaust pipes from the 1937 Cord 812.Instead of fastening these pipes to an underbody exhaust,there were on the hood in all their glory.One of the most distinctive vehicles of the 20th Century,supercharging was an option on the 812 which also featured retractable headlamps and front wheel drive.Only 1000 were produced in the two years it was available...
This car is part of a nearly 70 car collection that is the Tampa Auto Museum.Most of the cars featured are foreign made classics in engineering and design from the 1920's and '30s.
