Thanks to Dennis J for finding this one! When I had my first look at this 1962 Jaguar XKE flat floor convertible I was, well, shocked. Bidding here on eBay is over $50,000 and the reserve has still not been met…. more»
British Classic Cars
Two To Make One: A Pair Of 1975 MGBs

Motoring Monday: Three 1930’s Austins
The Austin 7 was Britain’s equivalent of the Model T; the first common truly affordable “people’s car” that was within the reach of most families (used, if not new). Although not even close to the Model T’s proliferation with… more»
Clown Car To Barn Car: 1949 Austin Devon
This 1949 Austin Devon has a history of circus use (!) before being stored in a barn for over 20 years. Now it’s been pulled out of the barn and is up for sale in Appleton, Wisconsin for $1,400…. more»
A Bit Or Two Short: 1963 Morgan +4
While this Morgan +4 is missing a few parts, particularly on the front end, the car is relatively solid and the seller has included a lot of pictures, especially undercar where a little rust is showing. The four-seat Morgans… more»
What A Bargain: 1969 Rover 2000 TC for $1,000
I see a lot of cars that terrific readers send in, and every once in a while I am sorely, sorely tempted to buy the car rather than write about it. This is the second-most intense feeling I’ve had… more»
1969 Lotus Elan With Cosmetic Needs
“Same California owner since 1977.” Those are the words you’ll find in the eBay listing for this 1969 Lotus Elan, which is going to need a serious cosmetic restoration to even begin to look like it did in the… more»
Start An MG Collection: Two Midgets And Parts
These two MG Midgets are actually in better shape than they look at first glance. Both of them run, but neither has any brakes. They are being offered together for one price in Auburn, Georgia here on craigslist. The… more»
Patinaed Racer: 1963 MG Midget
There are some cars that I want so badly that it is hard to write them up. They are not always rare or even great bargains. Normally, they are just rust free drivers at good prices that I think… more»
Motoring Monday: Sunbeam Alpine At No Reserve
The Sunbeam Alpine is generally under-appreciated by sports car enthusiasts. With a distinctly softer edge than contemporary MG’s, Triumphs and Austin-Healeys (the Alpine offered real wind-up windows upon it’s introduction in 1959, unlike the others which still used side… more»
1977 Lotus Esprit S1: Spy Gear Not Included
This 1977 Lotus Esprit S1 has been listed here on eBay for awhile. They’ve lowered the price from $30,000 to $19,995, but it still seems overpriced. (I thought these sold for $10k or less) It’s been a long time… more»
Diamond In The Rough: 1974 Triumph TR6
While the pictures aren’t great, they are good enough to tell me that I should be out there looking at this car instead of writing it up. Circumstances don’t allow that; hoping one of you readers picks this one… more»
Motoring Monday: Black Widow TR7 Spider

Major Challenge: 1959 Jaguar XK150
This is one sad looking Jaguar! I have fellow staff writer Jeff L. to thank for calling my attention to this car that has definitely seen better days. It’s up for sale here on eBay and is located in… more»
Is This Vixen Worth Fixin’?
This 1971 TVR Vixen 2500 was stored for 20 years. Like the one posted several months ago, this has the Ford Cortina engine. It’s not much, but this car is very light, so with 88 HP it does OK and… more»
Little Bitty Car: 1960 Trojan 200
This little 1960 Heinkel is certainly a cute little car, although some might give pause to driving around with the Trojan nameplate. It’s been part of a private collection in Alabama for the last 50 years. There are a… more»
