One Wedge to rule them all. 📐
Meet the car lower than a Ford GT40: the one-of-one 1970 Lancia Stratos HF Zero.
This is the OG wedge car. A fully functioning concept with 12-inch wheels, a 1.6L four-cylinder, room for two people and their luggage, and a front-opening cockpit you basically crawl into. Filmed at the @petersenmuseum as part of their wedge exhibit.

Purchased by its current owner in 1983 with just over 40,000 miles, this diesel-powered sedan has since traveled nearly 1.3 million miles!!
While the engine has been rebuilt twice and replaced once along the journey, the chassis and most of the car remain original, still wearing its factory-correct Manila Beige finish.
Come check it out in-person beginning May 24!

This Challenger SRT8 shows up in one of the franchise’s most memorable moments, a friendly race between Dom and Brian that carries into Fast & Furious 6.
With widened fenders and bold matte-black graphics, it’s a modern take on classic muscle. Now on display in “A Fast & Furious Legacy: 25 Years of Automotive Icons”!

One of just seven Ferrari 456 GT Venice Estates built by Pininfarina, chassis no. 103190 is part of one of the strangest chapters in modern Ferrari history.
Originally ordered by Prince Jefri Bolkiah of the Brunei Royal Family, each Venice Estate started life as a 456 GT before Pininfarina stretched the roofline, added rear doors, and turned Ferrari’s elegant V12 grand tourer into the world’s most unlikely family hauler.
Commissioned at roughly $1.5 million each in the mid-’90s, these were not exactly your average grocery getters. This Forest Green example was part of the Royal Family’s London collection before eventually escaping into private hands, making it the only known 456 GT Venice Estate outside Brunei.
It also has a few odd details that set it apart from the others, including standard 456 coupe wheels and a rear wiper mounted on the opposite side.
At some point, chassis no. 103190 was repainted silver and fitted with a beige interior. It was originally commissioned with an automatic transmission, but in 2024, the current owner returned the car to its original Forest Green configuration and converted it to a six-speed manual.
And in 2026, it rolled into Avants @wagonfestofficial at the @petersenmuseum .
Because apparently, even Ferrari wagons need a wagon meet.
