Greatest cars of all time

Travel down the winding Highway 141 in Colorado, and you’ll understand why it’s a favorite route for motorists and motorcyclists. With sweeping vistas around nearly every curve and long stretches where you’re the only motorist, it’s the kind of road that car enthusiasts dream about. So, it makes sense that just off this highway, you find the Gateway Auto Museum. Part of Discovery Channel founder John Hendrick’s Gateway Canyons Resort & Spa, the museum is home to 52 classic cars devoted to celebrating and showcasing the history, design, ingenuity, and social impact of the American automobile. Here, the docents have helped to draft a list of the greatest cars of all time, including a few that reside in the resort’s unobtrusive low-slung pueblo-style museum.

Porsche 911

The Porsche 911 has been beloved on the racetrack and streets alike ever since it was first introduced in 1964 and is now one of the longest-standing sports cars ever. Air-cooled with an output of 130 horsepower and sophisticated rear suspension, as well as a horizontally opposed six-cylinder power plant engine, its continuous refinements over the years make it one of the most popular sports cars on the roads. In 1999, the 911 came in fifth place in the international “Car of the Century” competition – behind other notables on this list, like the Ford Model T, the Volkswagen Beetle, and the BMC Mini.

Ford Mustang

In the first six months of production in 1964, the Mustang was the fastest-selling car in history. It has since become an icon of style and performance among American automobiles, escorting in the “pony car” class of affordable sporty coupes with long hoods and short rear decks. Competitors raced to release their own versions, such as the Chevy Camaro, the Pontiac Firebird, and the Dodge Challenger. In 1964 alone, the Mustang was the pace car for the Indianapolis 500 and won both first and second in class at the Tour de France international rally. The museum is home to a 1967 Mustang Shelby GT 500 Fastback, designed by the legendary car constructor and race car driver Carroll Shelby.

Benz Motorwagen

Created in 1886 and powered by an internal combustion engine, the Motorwagen was essentially the world’s first motor car (previous automobiles were powered by steam or electricity). Only 25 were built, and the four-stroke engine that powered the early models produced less than one horsepower. Despite its meager speeds, the vehicle paved the way for the future of cars as we know them today.

Waverly Electric

Anyone who thinks electric cars are an invention of the twenty-first century is sorely mistaken. The Waverly Electric was produced from 1896 to 1914 and was owned by celebrities, such as Diamond Jim Brady, Willa Cather, and Thomas Edison among its owners. Marketed as a woman-friendly automobile, The Waverly was easy to start, easy to drive, and usually came with an enclosed coach body to protect long skirts from dirt and debris.

Ford Model T


Part of the collection at the Gateway Auto Museum, the Model T (or “Tin Lizzy,” as Henry Ford called it) influenced every single automobile that came after it because of its groundbreaking and more cost-effective assembly-line production method. Between 1908 and 1927, 15 million models were produced. The increase of motorists as a direct result of this first affordable car led to the creation of America’s highways, gas stations, garages, and roadside motels.

VW Beetle


Marketed as a car that anyone could afford, the Volkswagen Beetle has been in production since 1936 and has a somewhat scandalous origin story (developed with the help of Ferdinand Porsche, the Beetle was the brainchild of Adolph Hitler, which is ironic, given it later came to be known as the “Love Bug”). This compact car had several notable innovations that set it ahead of its time, including rear-wheel drive and a rear-mounted engine. It was also the first car to have four-wheel independent suspension. To date, more than 21 million Beetles have been built, making it one of the most produced cars in history.

Cord L-29


The coolest car you’ve never heard of, the Cord L-29 was the first front-wheel-drive automobile sold in America. Introduced in 1929 and featuring a radically different arrangement of the engine and transaxel assembly, the L-29 had an elegant design that elevated it above its competitors. Unfortunately, the timing of the release coincided with the stock market crash of 1929, and after a few years, the L-29 was taken out of production. You can see a sister model – a 1936 Cord Phaeton – on display in the museum.

Ford 150 Pickup Truck


Introduced in 1948 to replace car-based pickups of the early ’40s, the F150 is now in its 13th generation thanks to its durability and reliability. Refined over the decades in styling, design, bed, engine design, suspension, and platform, it has been the best-selling vehicle in the United States since 1982 and the best-selling pickup truck since 1977.

Oldsmobile F-88


Throughout the ’50s, General Motors hosted auto shows that displayed fancy prototypes and concept cars. But once out of the spotlight, the vehicles were supposed to be destroyed. The Oldsmobile F-88, designed in 1952 and 1953, was one of those dream cars that wasn’t destroyed and is today considered one of the greatest expressions of automotive design to ever come from North America. Only two were manufactured, with one of those now on display at the Gateway Auto Museum. Purchased for $3.24 million, the two-seat roadster with a fiberglass body is the collection’s crown jewel and possibly the world’s rarest automobile.

BMC Mini

Proof that necessity is the mother of invention, the Mini was created by the British Motor Company in a period of drastic gas rationing in Great Britain in the late ’50s and early ’60s. Despite being just 10 feet long to achieve better gas mileage, the earliest Mini comfortably sat four people thanks to an engine that was mounted transversely, instead of front to back, allowing for more interior room. Since then, the Mini has been the inspiration behind later generations of small and smart cars.

More than half of those uninsured are really under the age of Thirty five. They do not experience they are requiring health insurance since they are young and healthy. Their income is generally spent on real estate, food, and entertainment. A lot of people that do go to work either whole or not professional are not offered insurance by way of their jobs so they move without due to rising price of health insurance in america.

  26. According to my study, after a property foreclosure home is offered at a sale, it is common with the borrower to still have the remaining balance on the mortgage loan. There are many creditors who make an effort to have all charges and liens repaid by the subsequent buyer. However, depending on particular programs, rules, and state legal guidelines there may be a number of loans which aren’t easily handled through the transfer of lending options. Therefore, the duty still remains on the consumer that has got his or her property in foreclosure process. Many thanks sharing your notions on this website.

The actual sensors associated with some surveillance cameras change in in the area of contrast, while others employ a beam associated with infra-red (IR) light, specifically in low light.

  58. Good post made here. One thing I would like to say is the fact most professional job areas consider the Bachelors Degree just as the entry level requirement for an online diploma. While Associate Certification are a great way to start out, completing your own Bachelors reveals many opportunities to various professions, there are numerous on-line Bachelor Diploma Programs available coming from institutions like The University of Phoenix, Intercontinental University Online and Kaplan. Another concern is that many brick and mortar institutions offer Online variants of their degree programs but usually for a substantially higher charge than the corporations that specialize in online college diploma plans.

  59. Somebody essentially help to make seriously posts I would state. This is the first time I frequented your web page and thus far? I surprised with the research you made to make this particular publish extraordinary. Excellent job!

  60. I am grateful for your post. I would like to write my opinion that the price of car insurance will vary from one policy to another, since there are so many different facets which give rise to the overall cost. For example, the model and make of the auto will have a large bearing on the price. A reliable old family motor vehicle will have a less expensive premium compared to a flashy sports vehicle.

  61. I mastered more a new challenge on this fat reduction issue. One particular issue is that good nutrition is extremely vital when dieting. A tremendous reduction in bad foods, sugary foodstuff, fried foods, sugary foods, pork, and white colored flour products may perhaps be necessary. Keeping wastes parasites, and wastes may prevent goals for shedding fat. While a number of drugs for the short term solve the condition, the awful side effects will not be worth it, and so they never provide more than a non permanent solution. This can be a known indisputable fact that 95 of fad diets fail. Many thanks for sharing your opinions on this site.

  62. Thanks for your article. My partner and i have always seen that most people are eager to lose weight since they wish to show up slim as well as attractive. Having said that, they do not always realize that there are many benefits just for losing weight as well. Doctors assert that overweight people experience a variety of ailments that can be perfectely attributed to their own excess weight. The good news is that people who sadly are overweight and suffering from several diseases can reduce the severity of their own illnesses by simply losing weight. You possibly can see a progressive but notable improvement with health whenever even a small amount of weight reduction is realized.

  63. Have you ever thought about including a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is important and all. Nevertheless think of if you added some great pictures or video clips to give your posts more, “pop”!
