This 1951 Le Mans Roadster is said to be a one family car. Indeed the owner bought it new in 1951 and got it till 2000 when he passed away, but the car doesn’t see a road since 1985 when the owner couldn’t drive anymore. After that, his son went periodically to the garage just… Read More One family car: 1951 Nash Healey Le Mans Roadster
This truck represents one of the mores which have been lost through the years. Once there was a carefree and simplier America where “house wives would flock to the Trucks for fresh loaves of bread, pastries, cream puffs, and other baked delicacies”. This truck was one of those. This truck is said to be one… Read More Just baked: 1948 Helm’s Bakery Truck by Divco
We’ve never seen this car before, nor we ever knew about its existence. It’s called Murena GT, and it’s said to have been built in a very small series of 10 cars by Intermeccanica which built the bodies, following the idea of Joseph Vos, president of Murena Motors. This car is powered by a mean… Read More Odd tourer: 1969 Murena GT
Yes, we like period hot-rods too. We like their ingenuity and their simplicity. So, we can’t stand billet aluminium, digital gauges or $20,000 paint jobs on these cars. This particular car is said to have a known history since it left the factory. The seller says also that the car is rock solid and completely… Read More This is traditional: 1932 Ford Tudor Hot Rod
Nowadays it’s extremely difficult to find a period “custom” or “hot rod”. Sure, there are some “famous” custom cars built by master customizers between ’50’s and ‘early ’70’s, but those cars fetch six figures prices so you’ll never have one. Then, there are cars made by obscure builders, sometimes in their garages, and this car… Read More Old skool: 1936 Ford Roadster custom
Like the Bug published on monday, even this ’57 Nomad shows tons of patina. But, differently from that Bug, this car has some rust holes on the roof wich are not so sexy to see. However, the seller says that those holes are the only ones on the car and that they’re less serious than… Read More Finned wagon: 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad
The bigger, the better: this is what’s befittingly to this car. This car features a magnificent streamline design and a color which perfectly matches all those curves. This car is much more cute in this two door version as the tail is perfectly joined with the roof line and then softly slopes towards the rear… Read More Bug on steroids: 1948 Pontiac 8 Streamliner Coupé
It’s not so easy to find a 1949-51 Mercury Coupé which has not gone under hammers, welders and grinders during its life, but sometimes it happens, as for this car. The seller says that this car was his grandfather’s present to him, at that it’s sitting in a barn from many years. Obviously there is… Read More Not chopped: 1950 Mercury Coupé
Really, this is the first time that we see this car. Not only it’s the first time we see one, but we didn’t even know about its existence. Actually this matching number car is one of 1035 made in 1941. We still wonder what the designers had in mind back then: perhaps too many beers?… Read More Never seen before: 1941 Chevrolet Coupé-Pickup
The seller says that this car is the first official Batmobile built, two years before the most famous TV-series Batmobile built by master customizer George Barris. This car was used to be driven around New England “to promote Batman and Robin milk, ice cream and fruit drinks, which were licensed by D.C. Comics”. The body is… Read More Sliding doors: 1964 Batmobile
