I see Herbie, Back to the Future DeLorean, the Batmobile, Jurassic Park transport and the Ghostbusters car.

Back in the day, There was the Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino owned by Ralph Engelstad in the Las Vegas Strip across from Caesars Palace which was bought out by Harrah's Entertainment in 2012 and changed to The Quad. Later on, Harrah's changed it again and it became the Linq Hotel and Casino. Harrah's then became Caesars resorts. The Imperial Palace was best known for a huge car collection on the fifth floor of their garage which contained many historical cars, one of them which was called the Hitlermobile. It was a vehicle captured by the US Army in 1945 and used by Hitler as a transportation car. It was a Mercedes Benz 770K. The exhibit was shut down on December 30, 2017, and the cars auctioned off.  It doesn't exist here any longer. You can see other classic cars in the background.  Yes, I was there several times and I took my father there and he loved the collection. Dad passed away in 2018.

There's also the motorcycle and sidecar from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

One of the best, in my opinion, looking car ever that I remember is the 1973 Buick Riviera with its distinctive rear window and style. It had a 455 Cubic Inch V-8 engine with 350 horsepower. Just a beautiful car.

Apparently, not beautiful enough to remember its ‘71 sister getting posted this past February

This is a car I really wanted to get in the early 80s, one of the few Detroit tanks I liked from 70s, at the time.  These days I appreciate most of those colossal blocks of metal, which are no match for the design wonders of the 50s and 60s, but still have their own nostalgic look. 

Anyway, this is a 1971 Buick Riviera

1940 Ford Coupe

A car as old as I am, a 1956 Ferrari 410 Superamerica Guia coupe. If you notice, the tail fins were there to "Americanize" the automobile in order to sell it here in the Good Ol' USA. Europeans of the time thought that tail fins were ..... gauche. Anyways, I think it is great.

From the year I was born, a 1956 Chevrolet El Camino. What a beauty.

1956 DeSoto Fireflite Sportsman hardtop coupe. DeSoto were manufactured from 1928 to 1961 when due to low sales, Chrysler put it out to pasture.

A 1956 Corvette. In 1955, the Corvette got a V-8 Engine which was a 265 Cubic Inch or 4.3 liter engine known as the small block engine which is still manufactured, with many advancements of course, to this day. The engine grew up to 350 Cubic Inches or 5.7 liters as time went by. This is still known as part of the 1st generation Corvette or C1 but its from the year I was born.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen one of these.  Not from this year, anyway.  Very cool

This always looks like it’s floating to me. Love it.
