The St Martins Accessories (World of Model Cars) is one of my favorite shops… and I’ve never been in it yet. It’s located right across the street from my hotel when I stay in London (which is every 2 to 3 weeks). Problem is, when I walk up to our offices in Soho, the shop [...]

Jaffe pointed out that the 30″ commercial has become pretty much useless today… but back in 1968 you could still get away with a 3′ commercial. Starting with the ‘68 model I think the design is losing a bit of it’s magic touch. The ‘68 fastback is probably the exception to this rule… remember Bullitt [...]

This is just stunning! I guess this is the best case of ROI I’ve ever seen, and definitely something that will get me my much wanted ‘65 Ford Mustang. I’m not sure if this is real, but it certainly looks like it. Here’s the story:

Looking at the news more in detail it becomes clear that it’s not about 100% online sales, but it’s still remains an interesting phenomenon. I’m pretty sure that back in 2000 when Ford and the [...]

Hardly as exciting as the Bullitt car chase I wrote about earlier, but Ford used Steve McQueen for the 2005 Mustang commercial. Imagine the cool ads you could create with a car like this knowing you could use McQueen imagery… how cool can that be? Hopefully it will be better than this one.

Bullitt is a 1968 action movie with Steven McQueen, Robert Duvall, … and this is why you’re supposed to know it:
“Bullitt is most-remembered for its central car chase scene through the streets of downtown San Francisco, one of the earliest and most influential car chase sequences in movies. The scene had Bullitt in a dark [...]

Today’s Mustang commercials are from 1967. Enjoy the new features announced on the 1967 version and the introduction of the Mustang Shelby GT, one of the coolest sports cars ever if you ask me.
