1954 Jaguar XK120 Fixed-Head Coupe Project
When the Jaguar XK120 was first introduced in 1948, it was only available in roadster form. Later on, both drop-head coupe (convertible) and fixed-head coupe (FHC) variants were available. This 1954 model was the last year the XK120 was… more»
Barn Find Convertible: 1974 Nissan 240Z
Wow – this is a seriously cool barn find. There were a handful of aftermarket companies that converted the classic Datsun 240Z into a convertible, but they were far more limited in number than some of the other companies… more»
Sunroof Coupe: 1976 Porsche 912E
When it comes to owning an air-cooled Porsche, a 912E may not be the most exciting option. But it’s still a far more affordable entry into vintage Porsche ownership than most other models, as this project-grade 912E is priced… more»
Yard Find: Dirty 1997 Dodge Viper GTS
I have been passionate about classic cars for as long as I can remember. It was a passion ignited by my father as he parked a succession of wonderful cars in our garage. However, there are only a few… more»
No Reserve: 1962 Chevrolet Corvette
The 1962 model year marked the last for the C1 Corvette, but it was also the first where buyers found the legendary 327ci V8 under the hood. The Corvette had cemented its place in the market, setting a new… more»
GT5 Clone: 1973 De Tomaso Pantera
I recall the first time that I spied a De Tomaso Pantera – I was immediately smitten! It was a sort of terra cotta colored ’71 version and the sound of it idling was entrancing. Also, being a ’71,… more»
It’s a Bitsa! 1956 Corvette SR Tribute
Sometime in 1956 (accounts vary as to exactly when), between 4 and 8 (accounts vary) Corvettes were converted to “SR” specification, mainly for the purpose of racing them. The few that remain (and some clones, and at least one… more»
Kit Car Pair: Bradley GT Duo
When it comes to kit cars like the Bradley GT, we’re accustomed to seeing them show up in fairly rough shape. At the very least, even if they are by and large complete, they rarely have the cosmetics to… more»
Mopar-Powered Brit: 1971 Jensen Interceptor MkII Project
The brothers Jensen formed Jensen Motor Company in 1934. Known for making bodies for Austin Healey, Volvo (P1800), and Sunbeam (Tiger), Jensen also produced its own cars, often powered by American engines. In the 1960s, it was making a… more»
Near Driver! 1975 Triumph TR6
One of the constant requests I hear as a long-time member of many British car clubs is that someone wants to buy a “driver-level” car that they can refurbish or restore as time goes on. Buying a car like… more»
High Mileage Survivor: 1991 Porsche 911 Carrera 2
The 964-chassis Porsche 911 for years was one of the more attainable modern air-cooled models you could buy. While it wasn’t the modern classic like the 993-era model is, it was still a touch more modern than the 1980s… more»
Ran When Parked: 1968 Porsche 912
This 1968 Porsche 912 looks way better than most garage finds do, especially for a car that was dragged out as a non-runner. The air-cooled coupe was supposedly parked for a few upgrades and repairs that never happened, and… more»
Past Saving: Three Alfa Romeo Giulia Spiders
Well, we all try valiantly to defend even the saddest hulks of classic and vintage cars in hopes they can be saved, but sometimes, even the most dedicated among us have to wave the white flag. I have certainly… more»
