Description
Those rakish two-seaters are a distant memory. Sure, MG still exists as a company, but it builds family cars. Wagons, to be precise. Cecil Kimber’s vision for MG back in the 1920s is basically extinct. ‘A sports car should look fast,’ Kimber once said, ‘even when it is standing still.’ It was a philosophy he lived by every day. He had a zest for life and a nose for business. But there’s something most people don’t know: Kimber, the man who built what would become the most popular British sports car marque in history, wasn’t a very good mechanic, he never tinkered with an engine and, tragically, he never saw his little sports car develop.

Description
Elliott ‘Pete’ Estes could see a lot of things before they happened. Like on that morning in 1963 when Jim Wangers, an account executive for Pontiac’s advertising agency, walked through the door with a notion that would ultimately ignite the ‘muscle car’ era. Estes could see the potential in secretly creating the GTO, a car that eventually became the subject of songs, movies and passionate car clubs from Detroit, Mich., to Dallas, Tex. Estes foresight was a gift that would take him from the engineering offices of Chevrolet and Pontiac, all the way to the top of General Motors.

Description
None of his cars have his name on the fenders, hood or trunk lid and that’s exactly the way William Lyons wanted it. No name, yes, but his style was stamped all over the look, feel and shape of every one of his Jaguar cars. It was all his own, a marriage of machine and art, with the artist’s name scratched somewhere behind the frame.
Lyons and Jaguars. Understated elegance with measured pace, space and grace. That was Lyons’ way. The perfect feline for the fierce world of luxury automobiles.

Description
He was creative. He was fascinating. He was outlandish and extravagant. And he was willing to take a few chances.
Opportunity, as it turned out, was in the Bendix blood. An eager family spirit prompted Jann Bengtson, a native of Amaland, Sweden, to pick up and find America with his new bride, not thinking twice about the opportunity it would present. That same drive led Bendix to run away to Manhattan in 1898 at 16, the scene for many entrepreneurs of the time.
But Bendix was different. He began working as an elevator operator in a hospital, then moved to the maintenance department where he was taught the basics of electricity.

Description
He was cool. He was independent. He was a character unlike any other.
From his trademark hat, glasses and cigar down to his standard white uniform, Yunick was multi-faceted and multilingual in the language of racing: a driver; car-builder; mechanic; pilot; and crew chief. He could spin a tale as well as he could work a wrench. He could find the most creative way to win a race.

Description
Maybe if Ferruccio Lamborghini had not had that little clutch problem with his Ferrari 250 GT, and maybe if the problem had been solved to his satisfaction, and maybe if a heated Lamborghini had not run face-first into an insulted Enzo Ferrari that day in 1961, then maybe (just maybe) the red bull wouldn’t snort today.
Perhaps it would still plow: the first Lamborghini was a tractor, after all.

Located on the southern edge of Lake Erie, and in only a few square miles of space, the biggest thing about Geneva is the Annual Grape JamBoree, a fall harvest that’s held the last full weekend in September and culminates in the crowning of Miss Grapette. Only 6,500 people live there. One legend once did.
Ransom E. Olds was born in June of 1864, 10 months after Henry Ford.

Description
Imagine being the kind of person who thinks out-of-the-box enough to create a fantastic new engine, but also being so set in his ways to think that engine can’t evolve. Rudolf Diesel might have been the mysterious man behind the engine, but maybe he was also a little too late for his time. Three hundred years earlier, Rudolf Diesel might have been a man who painted chapels, wrote inspiring music or sculpted something for a museum located on the banks of the Seine River . . . and revered for all of it.

Description
Who is Howard? Maybe you know him better as Von Dutch. Or maybe you only know the Von Dutch name because it has appeared on the baseball caps, blue jeans, T-shirts and motorcycle jackets of Justin Timberlake, Paris Hilton and Britney Spears. Nearly 25 years after his death in September of 1992, the Von Dutch name became the coolest thing this side of the Hollywood hills. It became a license to print money. And who would have thought it?
