The Father of Automotive Design: Celebrating Harley Earl's Legacy on His BirthdayToday, we celebrate the birthday of a pioneer whose influence has left an indelible mark on the automotive industry – Harley Earl. Born on November 22, 1893, in Los Angeles, California, Earl became a trailblazer in the industry, earning the title of the "Father of Automotive Design" for his revolutionary contributions.Harley J. Earl's journey into the world of automobiles began in the early 20th century. His father, J.W. Earl, operated a coach-building shop in LA, exposing young Harley to the intricacies of automotive craftsmanship. Earl's keen interest and innate artistic talent, along with the family business, led him to pursue a career in car design, eventually catching the eye of General Motors (GM) founder William C. Durant.In 1927, Harley Earl joined General Motors, marking the beginning of a transformative era in automotive design. Earl's appointment as the head of GM's Art and Color Section signaled a paradigm shift. He introduced the concept of "styling" to the automotive world, emphasizing the importance of aesthetics alongside functionality.Under Earl's leadership, the 1927 LaSalle became the first production car to feature stylistic input from an in-house design team, setting the stage for a new era of automotive elegance. Earl's vision went beyond mere functionality – he believed cars should be works of art, capturing the spirit of the times.One of Harley Earl's most iconic contributions was the introduction of tailfins in the 1948 Cadillac. Inspired by World War II fighter planes, these sleek and distinctive fins became synonymous with post-war American automotive design. Earl's daring innovations set trends that influenced the industry for decades.Earl's creative genius extended beyond Cadillac to other GM brands like Chevrolet, Buick, and Oldsmobile. The '50s and '60s saw the birth of iconic models such as the Chevrolet Corvette and the Buick Riviera, solidifying GM's position as a leader in automotive design.Harley Earl retired from General Motors in 1958, leaving behind a legacy that transformed the automotive landscape. His impact on the industry was not just about designing cars; it was about shaping the very culture of American automobiles. Earl's emphasis on design as a driving force in the automotive world paved the way for future generations of designers to consider form as much as function.Harley Earl's birthday serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of a man whose creative vision transformed the automotive industry. From the introduction of stylistic design to the iconic tailfin era, Earl's impact is woven into the fabric of American automotive history. So, as we honor the "Father of Automotive Design" on his 130th birthday, let's reflect on the beauty and artistry that he brought to the world of cars, shaping an industry that continues to captivate us to this day.www.nodrivingloves.com#cars #car #collectorcars #oldcars #cartalk #electriccars #ev #hotrod #carhistory #automotivehistory #automobile #thisdayinautomotivehistory #thisdayinhistory #classiccars #onthisday #NaPodPoMo #ithappenedtoday #design #harleyearl #fatherofautomotivedesign

The world of personal luxury coupes exploded in the 1950s and 1960s. Land yachts like the Buick Riviera and the Continental MkII and, to a certain extent, the Jensen Interceptor. While the idea of personal luxury has effectively died, its spirit lives on in the wild Lexus LC. The aptly named Luxury Coupe exists between the world of brutal, luxury sports coupes and hyper-luxe grand tourers. This Lexus might not be as track hungry as, say, a Porsche 911, but it makes up for its lack of track performance with a hefty dose of luxury appointments on the interior and wild, striking design on the outside. While this Lexus is available with a naturally 5.0-liter V8, the hybrid variant replaces the screaming exhaust note with a fuel-efficient 3.5-liter V6 and electric motors. This hybrid might not be as potent as the V8, but its combined 354 hp is more than enough to hustle this 4,200-pound coupe to highway speeds. On this episode of Quick Spin, host Wesley Wren hops behind the wheel of the 2022 Lexus LC 500h to put it through its paces. Wren walks you around the LC 500 to highlight its styling and features before giving you a guided tour of its wild interior. Wren also takes you along for a live drive review. Wren also chats with Autoweek's Patrick Carone about this Lexus, where it stands in the market and what kind of competition it faces. Closing the show, the two break down what makes this car special.

A Truely Beautiful Car! This vintage Riviera has been meticulously restored. It came to Traffic Jamz for an audio installation. The customer wanted to retain the factory look on the dash, so we installed an aftermarket Kenwood CD player in the glove box. An IR repeater was installed to allow for remote control of the CD player while the glove box is closed. The CD player came equipped with Ipod control and Ipod charging. Overall, a fantastic vintage car with a modern sound system.
