One Owner: 1997 Toyota Tercel Redhawk

TVR 2500M: Rare Fiberglass Coupe

Spanish Classic: 1970 Bultaco Metralla Mk 2
It is not unusual for a senior company executive to resign due to dissatisfaction and to secure employment with their former employer’s competition. Their decision to establish their own company as a direct competitor is less common. That was… more»

14k Original Miles: 1966 Austin-Healey 3000 Mk III BJ8

Bare Bones Bad Boy: 1970 Ford Mustang Coupe
You buy this 1970 Ford Mustang Coupe, currently in Glendale, Arizona, for one reason: to thump on it. The seller has gone to great pains to describe the engine internals, which sounds like they’re set up to move. Add… more»
