Another very unusual car in that set of pictures is the Triumph
TR-250K,(pics 231-245), which was a streamlined body on a TR-250 that Pete
Brock designed for Kas Kastner, who was a So Cal friend of his who used to
race Triumphs. Kastner wanted a more modern look to show Triumph, but they
rejected the idea. Then later they came out with the TR-7, which had a fair
number of the same stying elements. Last I heard it was in a private
collection in the Seattle area.

Piece of trivia: Kaster later became the Race Team Manager for Electamotive
when they ran the Nissan IMSA GTP cars.

Wow, what an amazing collection of cars in those shots!

the photography folks at cncpics attended the Art Center School of Design
car
exhibit.
Art Center (in Pasadena) have a famous school of automotive design, and were
recognising Pete Brock for his vast collection of work. (including the
Daytona
coupe)
Some cool shots of Adam Carolla's Datsun's, including an eagle eye view of
the
engine bay.  (nice work Les !)

Some other gorgeous pieces as well, enjoy.
