Enter the Alfa Romeo Astral, a name that might be unfamiliar to many contemporary automotive enthusiasts. Designed by the visionary Rodolfo Bonetto, this captivating creation found its roots on the chassis of the 1900C. In the year 1953, the illustrious Milanese coachbuilder, Boneschi, embarked on a mission to craft a spider version of the 1900C, intended for display at the prestigious Turin Motor Show. This creation was none other than the Alfa Romeo Astral, distinguished by its avant-garde design, which drew inspiration from the sleek aesthetics of American sedans.

Carrozzeria Boneschi
, once a prominent Italian body manufacturer, now exists solely as a revered brand. Established in 1919 by Giovanni Boneschi, the company was headquartered in Cambiago throughout its storied history. Astonishingly, only two units of this Italian coachbuilder's masterpiece, the Alfa Romeo Astral, ever rolled off the production line. One of them found its way into the possession of Rafael Trujillo, the dictator of the Dominican Republic, in 1954. Sadly, no further specimens were manufactured, and before long, Boneschi ceased its operations.
Indeed, the visual aesthetics of the Alfa Romeo 1900C, courtesy of Boneschi, have been met with mixed reviews from automotive connoisseurs. (Picture from: Carrozzieri-Italiani)
Indeed, the visual aesthetics of the Alfa Romeo 1900C, courtesy of Boneschi, have been met with mixed reviews from automotive connoisseurs. Many have expressed surprise and curiosity upon encountering its peculiar design, a departure from the original donor car's aesthetic, particularly in terms of the front and side profiles.

At first glance, the front end takes on a distinctive elliptical form, conspicuously eschewing the conventional Alfa Romeo 1900C shield grille design that enthusiasts are accustomed to. In its stead, the elliptical grille takes center stage, flanked by two circular headlights and accentuated by a midline connecting two discreet turn signals on either side. Additionally, two air scoops are elegantly affixed atop the hood, adding to the overall allure. Intriguingly, examination of available images reveals a divergence, with one variant featuring the familiar Alfa Romeo shield at the center, while its counterpart does not.

Simultaneously, the prominent elliptical shape at the front gracefully extends into an aerodynamic line that seamlessly melds with the front edge of the rear wheel arch. The design inspiration from American automobiles of that era is unmistakable, as evidenced by the pair of fins gracing the rear, not merely for aesthetic flair but to enhance aerodynamic performance and accentuate the futuristic theme.

As for the powerplant, it remains a subject of speculation whether any modifications or enhancements were made. In its standard configuration, the Alfa Romeo 1900C boasts a 1,975 cc DOHC inline four-cylinder engine, mated to Weber carburetors and a five-speed manual transmission system. The vehicle also showcases a specially designed independent front suspension featuring double A-arms, coil springs, and hydraulic shock absorbers. At the rear, a live-axle suspension with trailing links, coil springs, and hydraulic shock absorbers complements the setup. Four-wheel drum brakes round out the formidable package.

The handlebars, mounted on Roland Sands risers and equipped with Motogadget bar-ends, provide a comfortable yet stylish riding position. To preserve the R18's modern wiring, Rusty Wrench retained the OEM speedometer. Beyond the movie and aviation influences, the R18 by Rusty Wrench also exhibits a deep appreciation for luxury sports cars.

To add the finishing touches, custom CNC machined badges were meticulously installed. These emblems, celebrating BMW Motorrad's 100th anniversary, adorn each side of the tank, while the engine emblems were replaced with a pair of 'Maverick' logos.
What sets the R18 by Rusty Wrench apart from most 'themed' motorcycles is its seamless and cohesive design. Even without the Top Gun-inspired details, it remains visually appealing. Moreover, the revised ergonomics promise an even more enjoyable riding experience on the R18. Rusty Wrench Motorcycles has indeed crafted a masterpiece that transcends cinematic inspiration, delivering a motorcycle that is as breathtaking as it is functional.

Kept spur your adrenaline on the power of two-wheeled monster and stay alive with the true safety riding. May God will forgive Your sins and so does the cops.... *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | BMW MOTORRAD PORTUGAL | RUSTYWRENCH | BIKEEXIF ]

Ford's Ambitious Hypercar: The Unforgettable Ford GT90

Special ONES - There’s a certain thrill in looking back at moments when the automotive world dared to imagine far beyond what the road seemed ready for. The mid-1990s, a period bursting with technological optimism, gave rise to one of Ford’s boldest experiments—a concept car that didn’t just hint at the future but looked as though it had arrived early. From this atmosphere of ambition emerged the Ford GT90, a machine designed to bridge the legendary past of the GT40 with a vision of tomorrow’s performance and innovation. 
The magnificent creation of the Ford GT90 earned the title of "world's mightiest supercar" due to its cutting-edge technology and unmatched capabilities of the time. (Picture from: ConceptCarz)
Ford introduced the GT90 to the world at the 1995 Detroit Auto Show, immediately positioning it as the most powerful supercar of its time. Yet the GT90 was more than a showcase of force; it was crafted as the spiritual successor to the dominant GT40 of the 1960s. Beyond heritage, Ford used the GT90 as a test bed for advanced engineering, design studies, and driver-focused technologies intended for future models. It embodied both respect for tradition and a willingness to push boundaries.
The Ford GT90 was not merely a concept car; it was envisioned as the spiritual heir to the iconic Ford GT40. (Picture from: ConceptCarz)
A key element of the GT90’s significance was its pioneering adoption of the “New Edge” design philosophy. This approach favored sharp intersections, triangular surfaces, and defined geometry—styling choices that later appeared on mainstream Ford models including the Focus, Mustang, and Falcon. In shaping later production vehicles, the GT90 became one of Ford’s most influential concept cars, proving that design experiments could ripple through an entire brand’s evolution.
The Ford GT90 dazzled in a striking bright white hue, featured with a forward-positioned cabin with a short hood, complemented by a lengthy 2,946 mm wheelbase. (Picture from: ConceptCarz)
Behind its creation was a small, high-intensity team from Ford’s Special Vehicle Team (SVT). They were given just six months to produce a fully realized hypercar, an astonishingly tight schedule that required creative solutions. One such solution was sourcing components from Jaguar, then part of the Ford family. This approach kept development efficient and cost-effective, though the finished prototype still represented approximately three million dollars’ worth of resources and engineering. Speed and ingenuity became the hallmarks of its development.
The Ford GT90 cabin dominated with a vibrant bright blue theme, tastefully blending leather and suede, paired with an aluminum linkage connected to the center console, exuded a sporty and elegant vibe. (Picture from: ConceptCarz)
Externally, the GT90 embraced an unmistakably futuristic presence. Its bright white carbon-fiber body panels, combined with an aluminum honeycomb monocoque chassis, reflected cutting-edge construction for its era. The cabin was pushed far forward, supported by a long 2,946 mm wheelbase and a short hood, giving it a stance both aggressive and technical. Electronically operated doors added a touch of theater, while the interior surprised many with its generous space—unusual among 1990s supercars. A bright blue theme dominated the cabin, blending leather and suede with silver accents, a carbon-fiber center console, an aluminum open-gated shifter, and a custom instrument layout that included a distinctive yellow triangle on the steering wheel.
The Ford GT90 powered by a monstrous 6,000cc 12-cylinder V12 engine, a fusion of two Lincoln V8 engines, coupled with four Garrett Systems T2 turbo units. (Picture from: ConceptCarz)
Its performance figures remain astonishing even by modern standards. Ford engineered a 6.0-liter V12 by merging two Lincoln V8s, then pushed the formula further with four Garrett T2 turbochargers. The result was 720 horsepower and 895 Nm of torque fed to the rear wheels through a five-speed FFD-Ricardo manual gearbox sourced from the Jaguar XJ220. That powertrain propelled the GT90 to a top speed of 407 km/h and enabled a 0–100 km/h sprint in just 3.1 seconds. To cope with this immense capability, Ford fitted a double-wishbone suspension system also derived from the XJ220, enhancing stability at extreme speeds. 
Despite the Ford GT90's awe-inspiring concept and its suitability as a successor to the Ford GT40, Ford made a surprising decision not to put it into production. (Picture from: ConceptCarz)
Despite its undeniable promise and its natural role as a modern successor to the GT40, Ford ultimately chose not to put the GT90 into production. Instead, the company introduced the Ford GT in 2004 as the true road-going continuation of the GT40 legacy.
The lone GT90 prototype slipped into near-mythical status, resurfacing only occasionally—most notably at an RM Auction event in 2009, where it rekindled admiration among collectors and enthusiasts. Even without a production run, the GT90 continues to occupy a powerful place in automotive history as a symbol of Ford’s willingness to explore the far edges of design and performance, revealing what can happen when imagination is allowed to run at full speed. *** [EKA [20092023] | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | HEMMINGS | CONCEPTCARZ | ROAD&TRACK | DRIVINGLINE | WIKIPEDIA ]
