Hot Rods, Punk Rock, and Toy Robots At the Henry Ford Museum
Hot rods, punk rock, and toy robots are just some of the things that inspire the internationally acclaimed House Industries in their pursuit of design, fashion, and type fonts. Yes, from Jimmy Kimmel to The New Yorker and John Mayer—House Industries' type fonts are used by many brands for their unique way of conveying cool, and this exhibit contains much of what House designers consider cool, including hot rods. Even Ed "Big Daddy" Roth was a huge inspiration to them growing up, so naturally when they got the chance they devoted a whole collection of fonts around Roth's hand-lettering style and art.

Buying a supercar isn't like buying a Corolla. You don't pick the right color off the dealer lot. Limited-edition supercars like the Ford GT are even more exclusive, with a special delivery process and a Ford Concierge to personally verify your car is in perfect condition and walk you through every feature. Recently, a friend of Motor Trend invited us to participate in the delivery of his Ford GT at L.A. institution Galpin Auto Sports, and we brought the cameras along so you can experience it, too.

ResearchNaturally, there's a lot of paperwork to do and even more money to change hands, but we skipped all that and went straight to the dessert. Our friend's GT arrived by private transport and was inspected by the concierge before it even left the truck. After being unloaded and relocated to Galpin's private museum, the concierge removed all the protective covers and plastic films for final delivery and walked us through every button and screen. Then, he presented us with a special folio containing the build sheet, photos of the car under construction at Multimatic Inc., and the window sticker. It'll be hard to go back to normal car buying after this.
