OH, BOY! WHAT'S UP, GUYS! CYRUSWONG HERE!

Even more shots from the Petersen Automotive Museum! The place is just filled with all sorts of cool machinery so don't blame me if I can't get all of the pictures I took there all posted on here in one day.

We start with this beautiful little thing, the Cisitalia 202. One of Pininfarina's earliest designs, the 202 really revolutionized car design in the post-WW2 era. Most cars at the time still resembled horse-drawn carriages but on wheels and featured sharp edges and such. The 202, in comparison, was all smooth and coherent, similar to how cars today look. I feel like it's a forgotten gem in the car industry and culture because it wasn't a commercial success but what it did in terms of car design shouldn't be overlooked.
