Don’t get this 1965 Sabra confused with some hacked-together kit car. This is a hacked-together production car that was built by Autocars of Israel. In project car form it may not look like much, but these can be lookers when… more»
Project Cars
1937 & 1939 MG TA Projects
Here is another project pair for a follower of the sacred octagon. This time we have two TAs; a green 1937 and a black 1939. They should present a challenge for even a seasoned restoration expert, but the end… more»
1955 Magnette ZA Project Pair
MG will always be known for their convertible sports cars, but they also tried their hand at a few sedans. Underneath this pickup topper you will find one such example. It is a 1955 Magnette ZA and according to… more»
1967 Fiat 850 Coupe Barn Find
When I first saw a submission from reader Jim S for a Fiat 850, I thought it was going to be another run of the mill 850 Spider. While the Spider is a fun little car, it isn’t all… more»
$500 Corvair Rampside
The owner of a Rampside we featured a while back decided they liked it so much that they kept it. These pickups are very handy with their fold-down side and few trucks will get more looks. Well, another project… more»
Mod or Restore: 1963 Chevrolet Impala
There is just something exhilarating when you spot a classic peeking out of a garage. Even when it’s a sedate or common classic, it’s still exciting to see. Take this 1963 Chevrolet Impala Coupe, it’s a base model, but… more»
Rod Or Restore: 1930 Model A Truck
Ford may have produced over 4 million Model A’s, but it is very hard to find one today that has not already been hot-rodded or restored. Well-preserved A’s can bring a pretty penny, so we thought this stock 1930… more»
1967 Ghia 450 SS Project
If you thought the Fidia was at all interesting, then you will want to see this. It doesn’t look like much, but this is a very rare 1967 Ghia 450 SS. Unfortunately it sustained some damage back in the… more»
1956 Ford Thunderbird Barn Find
Whenever we have featured Thunderbirds in the past, the response has been underwhelming. We get the feeling that there are very few of you who actually like these old birds. We think we may have found one though that… more»
1960 Austin-Healey Sprite Project
The Sprite may be best known for its “bugeye” face, but we like them because they offered consumers the driving thrills of more expensive sports cars at a much lower price. It was basically the sixties’ version of the… more»
Nasty Boy: 1954 Austin Healey 100
We never understood the whole Nasty Boys trend of shoving V8s into Austin-Healeys, but some people obviously enjoy the whole thing very much. Sure, it is great fun having all that extra power, but cars like this rare BN1… more»
Pine Scented Lotus Sprint
While browsing his local craigslist, reader Mark O. was surprised to find a Lotus. It’s not pretty, but it’s a Lotus! For some that means bad wiring and a cheap interior, but this American version of the Eclat also… more»
Barn Wood: 1951 Ford Country Squire
There is just something fascinating about a woodie wagon, but sadly there aren’t many of these left on the road, as most have rotted away. The problem with mixing steel and wood, is that if the wood decays, it… more»
Hairy-Chested & Cheap: 1974 Triumph TR6
Hairy-chested sports cars. I never fully comprehended that phrase, but many a journalist has claimed that this was the last of them. All I know is that the TR6 was the last of the true TR line. Later cars… more»
Barn Yard 1973 Dodge Challenger
This Challenger project gets an honorable mention, not because it’s a bargain, but because of what is in the photo. Many people try to stage their cars as “barn finds”, but this guy didn’t even have to try. The… more»
Tree Damaged 1967 Land Rover Series IIA
What a shame. We are doubtful that this 1967 Land Rover can be brought back to life, but we hope someone will try. A tree fell on the cab 3 years ago and it has sat ever since. The… more»
