Not every barn find ends up staying in a barn find condition for long. Take this 1963 Porsche 356B, owned by the same person for fifty years, it has just arisen from its long slumber and is now ready… more»
Marine Find: 1958 Whirlwind Wooden Runabout
Sometimes we use one, not necessarily related, noun to describe another. For example, “That V8, two-seater, something or other, pulls like a freight train”. Or, “Any way you cut it, that 74 Mercury Grand Marquis is a boat“. And… more»
1953 Chevrolet Corvette Prototype Seats Worth $90k?
This could be one for the record book! Instead of examining a desirable collectible car like a 1953 Chevrolet Corvette, we’re going to take a look at ’53 Corvette parts. But not just any parts but “prototype” parts, specifically,… more»
No Reserve Beauty: 1937 Packard Business Coupe
When I was a boy, I knew an older gentleman who lived near me and he was a study in antiquity. I never knew exactly what he did for a living, I think he had several different avenues, but… more»
Ford V8 Power! 1965 Sunbeam Tiger
For whatever reason, I gravitate towards the Sunbeam Alpine/Tiger, much more so than I do towards other British sports cars and it’s not necessarily due to the Tiger’s version V8 engine. It is probably more to do with the… more»

French Find: 1966 Citroen HY Pickup
