This 1955 Morgan Plus 4 is said to have 41,840 miles on it and that it lays in a horse barn since 1996. So, this “horse barn find” seems a great unrestored Morgan which looks like it needs few touches to hit the road again. Interior looks exceptionally preserved: everything is in place including the… Read More High cowl and low miles: 1955 Morgan Plus 4
This Primerose Yellow MG-Gt is one of the few made with big three liters inline-six engine under the bonnet: it is said the only 4,449 Gt hatchback were made, of which 1,773 were imported to U.S. It should be fun to drive a such tiny car with such big engine. The seller says that this car… Read More Small shell, big heart: 1969 MG-C GT Coupé
This E-Type Open Two Seater is a series 1.5, (chassis 1E-15625) so it’s basically a series one with few, minor changes. The seller says that it’s a former U.S. car which is in Europe since 1990. The clear attempt of the former owner was to build a tribute to the factory Lightwight cars which ran… Read More Lightweight attempt: 1967 Jaguar E-Type O.T.S. 4.2
This 1953 Austin A30 had a cut of the roof, transforming it in a pocket roadster. Very few of these cars have been made with lhd and this car isn’t one of those. However, a good care has been lavished to have a good result, so the whole edge of the roof is covered with… Read More Pocket roadster: 1953 Austin A30
“Nimble and luxorious” were the words used by period advertising to give a brief description of this car. Indeed this car was really quick into the city traffic despite the 850 c.c. which produced 34 h.p. This car is one of the many sold as “Austin Super Seven” instead of “Mini”: both brands were owned… Read More Rare LHD: 1962 Austin 850 Super Seven
This ’66 Sunbeam Roadster has been the point of a crossbreeding experiment: indeed the original 1725 c.c. inline-four engine, producing 93 h.p. has been swapped with a VW VR6 2.8 engine, rated at 190 h.p. Such power is transmitted to the rear wheels through a 5 speed Toyota gearbox. That’s a lot of work which… Read More Crossbreed: 1966 Sunbeam Alpine Roadster 5th series
This 1956 XK 140 is usually called “Roadster” in U.S. but the official acronym O.T.S. means “Open Two Seater”. The seller says that this car had a restoration some years ago; however the impression is that after that restoration this car has been driven few since. The seller says that he must part with it… Read More Nice price: 1956 Jaguar XK140 O.T.S.
80″ is not the displacement but the wheelbase of this early Land Rover. The model year 1952 was the first to have a two liters inline-four engine, differently from the cars between 1948 and 1951 which had a 1.6L unit. 1952 is also the first year in which these cars changed their classification from “commercial”… Read More This is spartan: 1952 Land Rover 80″
The paint of this BJ7 is tired like the rest of the car but, actually, this car is the typical “right candidate” for the operation. The seller says that this is a rust free car (all the photos posted in the auctions show a little or no rust) and that the engine doesn’t turn as… Read More Tired blue: 1964 Austin Healey 3000 BJ7 MKII
This 1st series Elan roadster is the quintessence of the british sports car. Light, basic and open, it weights 1300 pounds and it’s pushed by a 1558 c.c. straight-4 dohc engine fed by a couple of double-throath Webers corburetors. This particular car features a “camo” paint, due to many years of sitting outside. The seller… Read More Camo roadster: 1964 Lotus Elan S1
