RideLust Pictoral: Girls and Automobiles of the 1920s

I’m a big fan of the 1920s. That general time period was just fantastic, there was economic prosperity, great art and music, enthusiasm, it was just good times all around. Men wore suit jackets and hats and had canes and women had bobbed hair and apparently danced everywhere they went according to the History Channel. It looks like it was a blast.

So we’ve gathered together some pictures of gals and their cars from the era of Great Happiness, mostly from Shorpy.com. Enjoy:

1921. Margaret Gorman, the First Miss America, in a Birmingham car with an alligator finish

1924. Elizabeth Ramey in her Model T Ford

1920. The actress Grace Valentine in an expensive looking Packard roadster.

1919. A female taxi driver.

1924. Miss Mary Bay.

1927. Miss Grace Wagner, high school student

1927. High school girls learn the art of automobile mechanics. Grace Hurd, Evelyn Harrison and Corinna DiJiulian, with Grace Wagner under the car.

Miss Hazel Jones and Miss Marion Cameron in 1922.

You asked for more pictures of 2009 Nissan GT-R, so here they are. More pictures that you can shake a bloody stick at. The old GT-R Skyline, the new 2009 Nissan GT-R, the customizable multifuction display integrated into the dash, the start button, the Nismo Super GT-R, the innards, the outtards (is that a word?), the VR38DETT engine, everything. We have pictures of every aspect of the GT-R. We even have videos.

So sit back and enjoy, you’ve found what you were looking for:

As soon as they come out, they get smashed up. Fast cars go fast. Remember that, people.

A nice display of half the innards. Good stuff.

RideLust Salutes The Auto Show Babe

It’s almost auto show season, and in celebration we’d like to take this time to honor one of the greatest accessories ever invented for the modern automobile: the Auto Show Girl. From Paris to Tokyo to Detroit, the girls of the auto show are undeniably hot and definitely deserve a salute for standing for hours at a time in 4 inch heels, smiling incessantly in the face of open-mouthed guys fumbling for their camera phones.

So here’s to you ladies [especially to the woman in the 4th picture down after the jump whom our sources indicate stumbled across this photo from an event she worked and was surprised to find that it had been filed by the event sponsor under "dumb blonde and red Ferrari". Although we have no idea who she is, we're almost positive she'd like to instruct whoever tagged the photo to "Suck it hard, jackass," -ahem- or something to that effect...].

And to you, RideLust readership, you’re welcome in advance.
