California Dreamboat: 1955 Studebaker President
By 1955, Studebaker was making full use of the 1953 redesign of their coupe models, and most of the clean lines were still there. This President carried some accent trim, and I find that it actually improves the basic… more»
1974 Volvo 142: Compelling Tarp Find
There’s something about this Volvo 142 that keeps drawing me back to it (I’ve looked at the ad four separate times now just this morning). Perhaps it’s the solidity of Volvo construction versus my usual British tin? Maybe it’s… more»

Small Arms Exotic: 1937 BSA Scout
Imagine an aluminum-bodied, front wheel drive, composite (ok, wood + metal) framed roadster that only weighs 1,290 pounds! Sounds like a modern sports car dream, doesn’t it. I don’t even mind the front wheel drive at this price and… more»
