Rarely Restored: 1974 Bradley GT MK1

Well Documented 1968 Porsche 912 Project
This 1968 Porsche 912 strikes me on being just over the right side of that jagged edge of project car ownership. It’s rough, but it’s solid in enough places that you can tolerate the bad spots. A complete interior,… more»
32k Mile Survivor: 1969.5 Ford Maverick
In-between models like this 1969.5 Ford Maverick are interesting curiosities, as they effectively were limited production cars. However, even with the rarity factor dialed in, they’re not necessarily hugely unique compared to the models that preceded or followed it…. more»
Not Your Dad’s Roadster: 1952 MG TD Drag Car
You have to love old drag cars made from unconventional hot rod candidates. This MG TD is more typically associated with luggage racks carrying picnic baskets than roll cages and blown Chevy engines. The seller claims there is some… more»

Three-Door Pickup: 1960 GMC Custom Crew Cab
Despite missing its head and intake, bidders are still clamoring for a shot at winning this 1960 GMC Custom Crew Cab pickup. It’s wearing nicely patinaed paint and still shows good chrome and glass all the way around, so… more»
Crashed Legend: 1966 Mustang Shelby GT350
We all share that fear of our project car meeting an untimely demise, and I can only imagine the sting the owner of this 1966 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 felt when it was heavily damaged both front and rear…. more»
Commuter Car Potential: 1993 Lancia Thema Pair
For some reason, Lancia Themas have been popping up on craigslist with increasing regularity. Sure, it’s part of that crop of cars now eligible for more lax importation requirements, but usually it’s the Ferrari-engined 8-32 that gets all the… more»
Build an Abarth: 1958 Fiat / Abarth 1000 TC
I have a fear that I’ll reach an age where I’ve not stopped accumulating projects before I’m at the point of being unable to finish them. That seems to be the case here of a seller that has gone… more»
21 Window Alternative: 1949 Flxible Clipper Sightseer
With all the hubbub over the 21-window Volkswagen Buses – and the crazy prices they are still commanding – perhaps it’s time to look at some cheaper alternatives with the same amount of sunlight on board. This 1949 Flxible… more»
Your New Food Truck? 1973 Citroen HY Van

The Poor Man’s LM002: 1998 Laforza
