Among GM’s performance cars of the 1960s, SD has long been associated with Super Duty Pontiacs, such as the Super Duty 421 of racing fame. The 396 cid engine introduced in the 1965 Chevelle was a Chevrolet engine, the first of the MK IV big blocks that were derived from the MK IIs 427 cid ‘Mystery Engine’ first seen at the Daytona 500 of 1963. The Beaumont was not a US market nameplate; it was introduced as a 1964-1965 variation of the Chevelle to become a unique GM muscle car with its own nameplate. Using the Chevelle body and Pontiac…

Archaeologists managed to survey the ancient Mayan city, which sank during a natural disaster. Such an expedition was organized just now, although the intentions were years ago. The fact is that the locals (and the city was located on the territory of modern Guatemala) consider this place sacred, and for a long time opposed the scientists to conduct their research. At the top of the volcano is a huge lake Atitlan. During the heyday of the Maya civilization, a large city was founded on the islands of this lake, with many residential buildings, temples and squares. But, presumably, the volcano…

A well-known astrophysicist said that we will soon see UFOs. In an interview with The Guardian, infamous Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb said that perhaps in a few months we will see the first sufficiently detailed image that can be irrefutable evidence that UFOs are alien spacecraft. It is Avi Loeb who claims that the unusual interstellar object Oumuamua is a spacecraft that was created by extraterrestrial intelligence. In recent months and years, Loeb has attracted a lot of public attention with his confident claims that there are technologically advanced alien civilizations. Last year, he founded the Galileo Project, which aims…
Design by Ercole Spada, Zagato’s main man of the era, it possessed some earlier Zagato motifs, such as the windows into the roofline, which harkened back to the Panoramic Fiats of the early 1950s. About 32 Zagato-bodied 1.8-liter Iniezione Flavias were made; the rest were normally aspirated, two carburetor models.Only 626 of the Zagato-bodied models were built plus three prototypes. Ninety-eight were 1500s and the remaining 512 received the larger 1800 engine. Zagato worked primarily in aluminum, and the quest for saving weight carried over into the interior and even the paint. The paint was applied sparingly, in two or…
In 1957 Ferrari produced the 250 Granturismo Cabriolet bodied by Pinin Farina. Only 40 of these first-series soft-top Ferraris were built before being replaced with the updated Series II, launched at the Paris Auto Show in 1959. The current owner bought this second-series model in 2003 and started a long and detailed restoration that required the complete dismantling of nearly every part. The previous owner had not used the car for over 30 years and rust had taken hold. It completed an eight year restoration in 2012. The car is powered by a 240 horsepower, 2,953.2 cubic inch single-overhead-cam V12…

NASA’s Kepler Telescope discovered something truly amazing: a massive structure thought to have been built by an intelligent extraterrestrial culture. NASA’s Kepler Telescope discovered something truly amazing: a massive structure thought to have been built by an intelligent extraterrestrial culture. The massive structure is мคห-made and orbits a star 1500 light-years away from Earth. According to study and analyses, scientists believe that this enormous made building was built by an alien culture. Kepler detects only round planets, which is usual, but this т¡мe it identified something completely different, implying some form of artificiality. At first, scientists assumed it was due…
Very few movie or television aliens are friendly to humans. For every E.T. or ALF, there are dozens with predators, body snatchers, shape-shifters, Klingons and other space killers … or what a new study calls ‘Malicious Extraterrestrial Civilizations’. In real life alleged alien encounters, the visitors rarely kill (unless you’re a cow) – preferring to poke and probe both bodies and brains. Yet it’s foolish to assume that all extraterrestrial civilizations are benevolent – after all, they come from the same primordial soup as we violent humans. That is why so many space scientists and deep thinkers are concerned about…

I’m not sure if there is a word to capture the essence of this classic 1933 Ford Coupe. If I were to try and find one, I might end up with a long list of adjectives like mesmerizing, beautiful, breathtaking, or a flawless piece of American art. Even with words like that, I think you would have to see this vehicle and personally experience a ride in it to really appreciate just how much work has been put into this machine. I had the pleasure of riding around one afternoon with Ron Green, the owner of this Coupe. I guess…
This amazing 1929 Ford Roadster was built by Charly’s Garage in Mesa, AZ. I was lucky to have the opportunity to ride in it and I was impressed how well it handled. When Charles started the car up, it sounded perfect. The paint, the interior, the trim, the engine and the overall look of the vehicle is near flawless. This is definitely a car one must see in person to fully appreciate. Charles and his father built this 1929 Roadster together. They take it out to car show’s like (their favorite) the GoodGuys in Scottsdale, AZ and show it off…
Some of you out there (non-Ford lovers that is) might not be aware of what a 1973 Ford Landau actually is.Well here you go, in 1973 a limited production of only 1385 vehicles were made based on the XB Falcon Series. The Landau was basically ‘the top notch version‘ of the coupe, it had everything you could possibly have in the 70’s – the only options you could order for this vehicle was a cassette deck and leather trim, when Davids Landau rolled off the production line it had both. When cars were rolling off the production line in the…
Big M’s mysterious and forgotten ‘58 400-hp 3×2 Super Marauder makes a big comeback.They call Mercury “The Big M”. Who are we to argue? This incredible ’58 Monterey, though the lightest in that year’s lineup, tips the scales at over 4,000 pounds, packs a big 430 CID V8, carries a monumental factory rating of 400 hp, and has a trio of Holleys for carburetion. Amazing? Yes, but even more amazing is how this milestone Mercury has managed to slip through the musclecar hobby’s cracks. How could we have forgotten so completely about a car with these stellar credentials?No car in…

Glenn McKenzie is committed to American motors cars, and he is especially committed to this one. McKenzie has seen 30 AMC products come and go while he has owned this one, but he’s never been tempted to sell. What’s so special about this car? Take a look at the dealer window sticker, and you’ll find your own answers. But if it isn’t clear, we’ll let McKenzie tell you.“It’s the real deal,” he said. “It’s fully loaded. The red leather (interior) is rare. I think this car is maxed out on the options.” McKenzie grew up as the son of an…
On April 15, 2022 the black cube UFO arrives next to the sun and reappears on April 17, 2022 but this time above the surface of the sun. According to NASA, the black cubes are, in fact, missing data in the pictures but since flares of the sun partially cover the left side of the cube, we assume that the object appears to be real. According to conspiracy theorist and UFO hunter Scott C Waring, the black cube makes frequent appearances near the Sun. Mr Waring shared photos of the black cube to his blog UFO Sightings Daily back in…
In Mexico a whole series of recently discovered extraterrestrial architectures has been released . The findings could be exponential and prove once and for all that the ancient aliens visited our first ancestors thousands of years ago. These new ancient sculptures depict UFOs , extraterrestrial humanoid entities and mysterious texts, the subject of much discussion about alien news. Could this piece of ancient art be evidence of the ancient alien theory?

This shoe print fossil was discovered in a coal seam in Fisher Canyon, Nevada, according to reports. Because this vein is estimated to be around 15 million years old, the footprint must be of the same age. A double-stitched line may be seen around the circumference of the fossil when examined closely. It seems to be a size 13 with greater wear on the right side of the heel than the left. There’s no way of knowing how it got there. Unfortunately, there isn’t much more information than the snapshot and the location where it was discovered. This is the…
Although the concept of a Hollow Earth may appear absurd, scientists and politicians previously took it seriously. Owen Egerton is a skilled author as well as a filmmaker of horror films like Mercy Black and Blood Fest. In his new novel Hollow, a religious studies professor grieving the loss of his son gets fascinated with the concept that an advanced civilization lives in the Earth’s core. In Episode 444 of the Geek’s Guide to the Galaxy podcast, Egerton states, “Hollow is the junction of two interests, one being the Book of Job and the other being Hollow Earth Theory.” “Who…
The Corvette StingRay Racer was designed by Bill Mitchell, GM Vice President of styling, and Larry Shinoda in 1959. The basis of the Stingray was an engineering test mule chassis for the foundation of an official Chevrolet race effort culminating with the 24 Hours of LeMans. But, soon after its race debut, the Automobile Manufacturer’s Association had banned manufacturer-sponsored racing, and the SS had been relegated to test track duty. The Stingray featured a 92-inch wheelbase and was nearly 1,000 lb lighter than a 1960 production car. Its fuel-injected 283-cubic-inch (4.6-liter) V-8 engine produced 315 hp at 6,200 rpm. Billed…
Many of the unidentified objects and luminous anomalous phenomena originate in a zone south of the island of Vieques, coming out from or entering the sea. The object was sucking water from the sea, and the water was swirling like in a blender. A column of bright green light, similar to that of a powerful spotlight, was coming out from under the object. Dr. Mark Carlotto made public an excellent report and scientific analysis on the several anomalies that appear in the videos of space shuttle STS-48 and STS-80 missions. Something that called our attention more specifically in that report…
