  • Petrolicious: When Outrageous Was Possible

    Petrolicious-THUMBThe new project Petrolicious is gaining more popularity because the crew is working hard to deliver to all fans of vintage cars excellent footages of some of the rarest model. Such one is Lamborghini Countach, the story of which you can hear in the first seconds of the video below.

    This model of Lamborghini debuted back in the distant 1971 and as the owner James Chen admits it was an “outrageous” car. Because it is not very organic, and in fact it has origami-like forms, it looks very aggressively on the road.

    Back in those years the art form known as coachbuilding existed. Back then, the coach builder did not have to compromise his vision due to government regulations. And this is how the Lamborghini Countach was born.

    If you are curious to want more about this Lamborghini and to know the true meaning of the word “exotic” then what you need to do is to take a look on this exciting footage:

  • Petrolicious: Targa California [VIDEO]

    Petrolicios-THUMBDo you remember that last week a new exciting project named Petrolicious just popped up? The web platform aims to bring the attention on high quality content for vintage cars. The people working behind it promised that they are going to publish a new video every week.

    We have to wait no longer, because the second footage, called “Targa California” is out. And if you are huge fan of vintage car, then you should probably know that the Targa California is a non-competitive rally event in its fourth running.

    It includes classic vehicles prior to 1973 which rally through some of central California’s most beautiful places. In fact it is homage to the original Targa Florio race in Sicily. So here was where the Petrolicious crew stepped in and recorded this three-day event.

    Driving in the middle of a pack of Porsche 356’s, Alfa Romeos, BMW 2002’s and other beauties in windy mountain roads is what you are up to see in this exciting video.

  • Petrolicious: Man of Morgan

    A new exciting project has just gone live and its name is Petrolicious. The web platform will focus on high quality content for vintage cars and the people working behind the project are promising some great stuff coming down the line.

    A new video will air once a week starting with the one below named “Man of Morgan”. The story it tells is about Derek Wilburn of Long Beach, California, who is a collector of many things and of Morgan’s history.

    In fact you will see in the footage that his house and garage hold enough intriguing items. Definitely this is the vintage shopper’s paradise, filled with antiques, bicycles, and other. However the true passion of Wilburn is the Morgans (I can relate to this pretty well).

    Building and restoring the automobiles has been something which happened in his everyday life since childhood. You can literally see Derek’s joy when he talks about Morgans!
