"Daring the Darién" — The most exciting story in the collection!

In 1961, photographer Carl Turk and his team accomplished the near-impossible: they drove four Chevrolet Corvair cars through the treacherous, roadless Darién Gap in Panama — one of the most dangerous jungles on Earth.

General Motors was so impressed they turned the entire expedition into an official promotional film. These are exclusive, never-before-seen photographs taken during that historic journey.
