  • Je trouve ça triste, elles seraient plus à leur place dans un endroit où à défaut de les faire rouler, au moins, on s'en occupe (musée). Là j'ai l'impression qu'elles pourrissent lentement.

    C'est quoi le truc ? Collectionneur compulsif ?

    Oh take your time, don't live too fast.

  • Ces derniers temps, je me suis intéressé à l'évolution des courses Nascar et suis tombé, entre autres, sur ce reportage sur la course à Darlington Southern de 1953.

    Que la course dans tous ses aspects aie beaucoup changé depuis ne sera une surprise pour personne, mais ces 10mn (plutôt bien vues et de bonne qualité pour 53) valent bien un coup d’œil sur l'ambiance et les usages ;)

    Bien que ce n'est pas cette voiture qui prend la victoire sur cette course-ci, la Hudson Hornet par ces choix de constructions aussi simples qu'ingénieux, a dominé presque sans partage les saisons Nascar 1951-52-53, ce qui lui donnera un statut d'icône aux états-unis.

    Le film pixar Cars s'en est souvenu en créant en 2006 le personnage de Doc Hudson.

    Pour la (re)voir de près, cette vidéo de Jay Leno:

    La Kaiser Darrin, l'élégant cabriolet que le designer Howard Dutch Darrin proposa à Henry J Kaiser début 1952, était en avance sur la Corvette C1 sur plusieurs points,

    mais fut aussi le chant du cygne du constructeur indépendant déjà fragilisé par des ventes à la baisse.

    cDiQ9GU.jpeg

    Pourtant, devançant de peu son illustre concurrente, elle était la 1ère voiture de sport dotée d'une carrosserie en fibre de verre, un design unique mélangeant vision américaine et influence européenne, et dotée d'un concept inédit de portières coulissantes. Sa tenue de route était saine et ses freins efficaces.

    En 1952, l'idée de voiture de sport en Amérique telle que la Corvette allait l'incarner un an plus tard, n'était pas un pari gagné d'avance.

    Horward Darrin pris sur son temps libre et ses fonds personnels pour développer son concept.

    Quand Henry Kaiser découvrit le prototype, il fut d'abord hostile au projet, trop éloigné des modèles familiaux de la marque, mais la femme de ce dernier, subjuguée par la voiture, su le persuader de lancer la production. :+::hihihi:

    Tout semblait bien en place à sa 1ère apparition publique en septembre 52 au Motorama de Los Angeles où elle fit sensation.

    Mais malgré ses qualités, le tarif trop élevé, le moteur pas assez puissant, les retards de production et des erreurs commerciales, (Kaiser qui venait de racheter Willis, disposait alors du réseau Jeep peu enclin à vendre un modèle sport complètement étranger à la formation de ses vendeurs) les difficultés économiques de la marque, eurent raison de sa courte existence.

    On doit aussi à la Compagnie Kaiser-frazer (1947-1954) la Traveller (formule originale sedan-hatchback), la Manhattan (1ère voiture d'usine dotée d'un super-charger).

    Outre la Darrin qui est une rareté de collection, Les Kaiser et Frazer, voitures simples et fiables de l'après-guerre, sont sorties peu à peu de l'oubli où elles étaient tombées.

    Cette série de Cold War Motor sur la restauration -brute, petit budget, mais bon esprit!:+:- d'une Frazer 1949 est chouette à voir! (15 épisodes de 10mn)
