Consider this as more for the sake of completeness of documentation rather than a favorite-- Triumph Stag
For pretty, I'm really more partial to multiple carb installations on straight sixes.
Chrysler had some great examples on their big blocks.
Sonoramic Commando
Max Wedge cross ram
440 Six Pack
I wanted to post up a Jag V12 with a carb barrel for each cylinder but I'm unsure if any of the google images are OEM or not, so use this as a request to those that have good knowledge on the subject!
There's the 340 6-pack.
My Uncle had one in his GTX, used to embarrass big block cars all the time with it.
Charged $50 to pop the hood after a race. The races were usually $50-100/ea.
He usually made enough to keep his car well taken care of and for he and his girl to eat quite nicely. :)
Ford made an intake to mount 2 Autolite inline 4-barrel carburetors on a Ford 427.
There was also a special intake to mount FOUR 4-barrel Holleys on a 427, but damn if I can find a photo of it bare. Guy does have one in a '64 Fairlane with a GT40 block and heads and twin Paxton blowers though.
Don't forget the Oldsmobile 371 J2 Golden Rocket
Or Hornet Twin H Power
Also, if you knew your way around an AMC catalog, Group 19 held some goodies. A crossram for an AMC/Hurst SC/Rambler was one of them
i prefer the look of a single properly sized modern carburetor that makes more power and is better in every way than those multiple carb setups from the olden days...

Not in every way. They don't look as good.
