* As it turned out, there was more going on at this week’s North American International Auto Show in Detroit than just the introduction of the third go-around for the Ford GT40. Take, for instance, Mac’s Motor City Garage’s look at the various side displays, including the Ronnie Petersen/Brian Redman 1975 BMW 3.0 CSL above.
* The Oak Ridge National Laboaratory had a display at NAIAS as well, and the Shelby Cobra in its display isn’t quite like any other repliCobra out there: It was entirely 3D printed. David Szondy of Gizmag caught up with the lab to find out more about exactly how the car was built.
* Like Magc above, Antony Ingram of Evo Magazine trained his camera away from the spectacles of the NAIAS and toward a slice of automotive history – in this case, the 1965 RA 272 Grand Prix car that Honda had on display.
* Reuters photographer Joshua Lott went a little further for a look at the cars in Detroit this past week – outside the walls of Cobo Hall and into the streets and backyards of the Motor City where he found plenty of abandoned cars and trucks to tell a different tale than the one being trumpeted at NAIAS.
* Finally, while it doesn’t have that much to do with NAIAS, it’s still about Detroit: The Henry Ford this week posted some photos and information on the backstory behind Diego Rivera’s famed Detroit Industry frescoes in the Detroit Institute of Arts.
