from the Hemmings Nation Flickr pool - what’s Italian for “bitchin’ Camaro?”

It’s funny - Chevrolet intended the second-generation Camaro to be a more European (read: Italian)-flavored grand touring-type of car. We’d all agree nobody mistook an F-body for a Ferrari, despite Bill Mitchell’s best attempts. And that shows when you consider just how many Italians seemed to want to tinker with a second-gen; yeah, I can’t think of any off the top of my head either. But thanks to Hugo90, member of the Hemmings Nation on Flickr and awesome photo...

Four-Links - Detroit’s decaying factories, cherry Bronco, a truck quiz, cars behind the Iron Curtain

* J-lop had an interesting post a while back with photos of a handful of former Detroit factories, some of which have since become modern ruins, but this week we stumbled on a two-year-long batch of threads from a Detroit-focused message board that goes into exacting detail into the locations and fates of former factories in the 313. Includes more than you’ll ever want to know about street naming conventions and historical address shuffling, but still a good read. Oh, and while...

Four-Links - Winfield’s shop truck found, how did that Sno-Cat get out, a place to stash your toys,

* Over at the H.A.M.B., member mynameisnotpete just announced that Gene Winfield’s 1935 Ford shop truck recently resurfaced and is headed into the resto shop. Probably just as cool, he promises to keep posting updates as the restoration progresses. Probably not the greatest hot rod archaeological find of the century, but a significant one nonetheless. *  We’ve all seen that photo of the Tucker Sno-Cat on the Trans-Antarctic Expedition, straddling a chasm in a situation that seems...

Find ‘em hot

Admittedly, this is a teaser posting. The framed images, shown above, depict the genesis of a highly unusual 1956 Dodge T from its start as a new chassis-cab to its transformation into a pumper-tanker by the chief of a volunteer fire company in Maryland. This next photo shows the same truck, or a little taste of it as it’s now been fabulously restored, on the show field at Hershey this year. The restorer is a nearly lifelong member of the same fire company, and its historian, who was...

Four-Links - Hindley’s International, Australian vans, precariously positioned trucks, more on the L

* This week’s Four-Links has unintentionally turned into a truck/van affair, but almost none of them are your typical American haulers. For example, we came across HindleysGarage.com, the personal site for Ken and Lana Hindley of Union, Ontario, the restorers of this unusual International D15, custom built by International and Brantford Coach for an Ontario industrialist. (via) * Vanners love us, and we love vans, so we dug Australia-based Street Machine magazine’s coverage of the...
