* Crossing a cartoonish 1960s show rod and a shorty VW Type 2 may seem completely and utterly insane, but the end result, which Slammed Sixty posted this week (but the details on which we know nothing about), seems to work. Looking forward to seeing this one done.
* Over at Mac’s Motor City Garage this week, we learned why Packard’s Predictor concept car – built by Ghia – was photographed in front of the Detroit headquarters of Creative Industries: Apparently, the car burned nearly to the ground after delivery, so Packard had Creative do a complete crash rebuild on it.
* Ronan Glon at Ran When Parked detailed the history of the Mercedes-Benz W124 chassis on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the introduction of what would later become known as the E-Class.
* Alex Tremulis designed many a streamlined automobile, but as his nephew Steve discussed recently on Facebook, he also designed a streamlined street sweeper.
* Finally, one more VW Type 2 story – if you aren’t sick of holiday sweets by now, that is. Esarlier this month, a bunch of Bavarians constructed a gingerbread Type 2, which was later auctioned off for charity.
