Four-Links – Inside the dream car factories, more vintage dealership photos, six-wheeled Hispano, Toyota AA found?

* A couple interesting posts came up this week with vintage peeks inside the factories that produced some exotic cars. First, over at the Chicane, Harlo uncovered several photos from the Porsche factory, circa 1972. Second, David over at the Vintage Sports Car Review assembled photos from inside the Jaguar, Sunbeam, Mercedes, Bugatti and Lamborghini shops.

* We just stumbled on this months-old thread over in Motive Mag’s forums with tons of vintage dealership photos. The one above appears to depict a Studebaker and used car dealership, possibly named Grissom, circa 1950. The address appears to be the corner of 10 Mile and Van Dyke, leading me to assume it’s in the Detroit area, and indeed, there’s a city of Center Line, just south of Warren, where 10 Mile and Van Dyke intersect. That location now appears to be a Bank of America.

* While researching another vehicle, I happened upon the website of the Forney Museum in Denver, where they have on display this six-wheeled 1923 Hispano-Suiza Victoria Town Car, built in Barcelona, allegedly for King George II of Greece, who never took delivery of it. So the reasonable thing to do? Stick it in the movies!

* Even Toyota couldn’t find any examples of the AA, its first production car, when the company went looking for one in 1980, so the news that one may have recently popped up in Russia has been met with much skepticism. Japanese Nostalgic Car has more on the find, along with a breakdown of why it could or could not be a real AA. All we have to say is that Airflows were much larger than this car appears to be.

* Finally, Dave Lesick sent us a link to the website he’s put together on the six-year restoration of his SS/AMX, which ran as the AMX-1 by Atlantic Rambler of Norfolk, Virginia. Just as cool as the car are all the vintage photos and vintage press clippings he’s collected of the car.
