Black But Not Steel: Fiat 2300 Coupe

Fiat 2300 Coupe

Thanks to BlackSteelies reader Gert for reminding us of the beauty of the Fiat 2300 coupe and for sending this great image of a lowered example sporting black wheels – it looks ready for anything.

The 2300 coupe is a very elegant car and even looks good without black wheels!

For a final word on the 2300 Coupe check out this gorgeous video on Petrolicious: http://www.petrolicious.com/the-fiat-2300-s-coupe-is-suspended-in-time. Did he really say “…a little island inside the ocean of technology and modernity”. I want that on a t-shirt!

Land Rover X Cooper 500

Wonderful image of a Series 1 Land Rover being used as a transporter for a Cooper 500. Some may say that a trailer would have been easier but we admire the ingenuity.

The location is Crystal Palace in South London, the year 1953 and the driver is Stuart Lewis-Evans.

Thanks to Classic & Sportscar for a great find
