The 1915 Leg Show T was a very famous show car back in the early 1970s and the subject of what was arguably one of the most famous (and dramatic) magazine covers ever taken. The Leg Show T, a 1915 Ford Model T, and a highly customized version at that, appeared on the January 1971 cover of Rod &Custom and was an instant hit. (According to Pat Ganahl, a onetime Hot Rod and R&C staffer) would call this the "best rod magazine cover ever produced". It wasn't eligible for the Americas Most Beautiful Roadster trophy as the car didn't run at the time. (It would later make the 4,000-mile roundtrip to the 1971 NSRA Street Rod Nationals in Memphis, TN.)
Ford Fairlane GT-X Concept, 1966. A prototype high performance version of the 5th generation Fairlane Hardtop that was prepared by Gene Winfield. It was powered by a 427ci side-oiler medium-riser V8, finished in pearl white with metallic blue pearl stripes and fitted with metallic blue Naugahyde bucket seats. It debuted in January 1966 at the Detroit Autorama and toured until early 1967. Like many Ford concepts of the 1960s the car was thought to have destroyed at the end of its show life. However it resurfaced in 2000 and has been restored back to its original condition.
