Ford Model A (1927–1932)
Edsel Ford · 1927
The Ford Model A (1927–1932) was Ford’s deliberate departure from the Model T. Edsel Ford led its body design with József Galamb. It introduced four-wheel mechanical brakes, a sliding-gear transmission, laminated windshields, and a water-cooled L-head inline-four. It sold 4,858,644 units between October 1927 and March 1932. It marked the end of the Model T’s dominance and the beginning of Ford’s driver-oriented era.

Alfa Romeo Alfetta
Alfa Romeo Centro Stile · 1972

Alfa Romeo BAT
Franco Scaglione · 1953
The BAT series is a focused, documented exercise in aerodynamic research—not styling, not engineering for power, not market readiness. It is a rare case where form follows one measurable physical constraint, iterated across three years, with no deviation from that brief.
Alfa Romeo 105/115 Series Coupés
Giorgetto Giugiaro · 1963
The Alfa Romeo 105/115 Series Coupés are foundational Giugiaro — not as a stylistic endpoint, but as a working method: take a proven platform, impose a strong, arched silhouette, and let coachbuilders extend it. They are compact, alloy-engined, live-axle sports coupés that prioritise form coherence over mechanical innovation. Their legacy is visual, not technical.
Alfa Romeo Giulia
Giuseppe Scarnati · 1965
The Alfa Romeo Giulia Type 105 redefined what a four-door saloon could do—without electronics, without weight, without apology.
