Didn’t you?

It’s a 1968 Bertone Carabo Concept car with a Alfa Romeo V8, apparently Jay Leno owns it, apparently there was only one made and it’s on display in Arese, Italy at Alfa Romeo’s museum. Apparently this car was the inspiration for the famous 1971 Lamborghini Countach (one of my all-time personal favorites) according to jaylenosgarage.com. Another wedge shaped supercar.

I’m absolutely fascinated by these long hard angular body lines. Not to mention these particular photos have a really neat vibe to them. The washed out grainy film and a model who’s jumpsuit screams 1960s, combined with this unbelievably futuristic and advanced design. Well, I guess Lamborghini has continued that trend, maybe that’s why they’re so damn expensive and why most of us haven’t gotten ours
