9,500 Original Miles! 1979 MG MGB Limited Edition

Rare C-Type Head: 1957 Jaguar XK140 SE

This pretty 1957 Jaguar XK140 SE is listed as being useful for a restoration project or for parts, but I sure hope it’s a case of the former. The body may look rough and the engine removed, but it… more»

Ford vs. Ferrari Movie Car! 1967 Morris Minor Woody

Movie cars have always been popular. In fact, a 1968 Ford Mustang that starred in the movie Bullitt recently sold for $3.74 million! If you’ve always wanted a movie car, but can’t afford millions, perhaps you could own this… more»

1967 Jaguar E-Type For $17k!

The potential to score a gorgeous Jaguar E-Type at a substantially reduced price seems possible with this listing for a 1967 model that is part of a probate sale. The details are limited, but the seller claims it still… more»

Austin-Healey Restoration Business For Sale!

The seller of a collection of Austin Healey spares and parts is doing a bang-up job of making me question my life. You see, not only does he have an impressive stash of 100-4s for sale, but he mentions… more»

Untouched Barn Find: 1954 MG TF

Doesn’t she look hopeful? This 1954 MG TF has recently been rescued from the barn it’s been in since 1986. It’s now being sold here on eBay at no reserve; bidding is just under $5,000 as I write. The… more»

Owned Since 1970: 1958 MGA Coupe

Waiting To Be Restored: 1977 Lotus Esprit S1

This 1977 Lotus Esprit S1 is described as a long dormant project that’s been sitting in the seller’s barn for 20 years waiting for its shot at restoration. It reminds me of the very real possibility of acquiring a… more»

Half Done Or All Cooked? Jaguar XK150 Project
