The Difference Between a DeLorean and a 1968 Bertone Carabo

Shortly after today's edition by Scott Listfield was released, we received an email from a dedicated reader. Vittorio Mezzano wrote in,

My congratulations for all the good work that you've been doing and for the great images that we dig so much (and sometimes buy), but this time you have to make a correction: the car in the painting is not a DeLorean at all, rather is a 1968 Bertone Carabo, a one off prototype based on an Alfa Romeo P33. You have to be forgiven though, since the designer of both cars is the same: Giorgetto Giugiaro.

And, a quick Google search (not that we didn't trust you, Vittorio) proves that he is correct!

Waiting Dangerously in Rio by Scott Listfield

While we're sad this was not the car used as a time machine in Back to the Future, we're now very glad to know the true model of the car in Waiting Dangerously in Rio.
