The Beerster Buick Straight 8 was at the LA Roadster Show

Not based on a real car, but what the makers could approximate as a 1936 Indy 500 roadster race car http://www.beerster8.com/

Tom Cobbs 1929 roadster, DeSoto grill, fantastic soldered copper tube fuel lines at the carbs

trivia I read and posted was that the first supercharged V8 was a factory experiment 285 cu in that went into this, or another, Tom Cobbs dry lakebeds race car

hot rod engines at the Primer Nats

Supercharged inline six with triple carbs... cool and uncommon
