We’ve seen some Cadillac Meteor for sale, but never a car this old. It’s a 1952 green ambulance whick looks rather tired and in need of a lot of work. The seller says that he bought this car in 1986, then he have rebuilt the engine (spending more than $7,000) but the car is basically unused… Read More Green code: 1952 Cadillac Meteor Ambulance
This white ’56 Thunderbird is said to be an unrestored matching numbers car which, although it shows some signs of the time, is still in beautiful conditions. The seller says that the car has 69,783 original miles. The 289 c.i. engine is mated with a three-speed manual transmission; some interesting features of this car are the wire… Read More Original old girl: 1956 Ford Thunderbird
Actually “barn” is a sweet word used in the title but this car looks to be stored somewhere more likely to a container than a barn. However, the point is that this car has been stored since many years and, if the period photo provided by the seller is one of the last taken before… Read More Farewell barn, hello world: 1953 MG TD
Here it is the heavyweight of the Corvette breed: this was the biggest Corvette available back then. “Was” because the original engine has been replaced in the past with a 396 c.i. which, although enough powerful, has not the “allure” of the original unit. The seller says that the car has still the original rear suspensions… Read More Once was Big: 1966 Chevrolet Corvette 427 Convertible
For sure this is not the best looking Lotus ever made, but at least you can say that it’s very rare. Few more than 1,500 cars were made and we’re pretty sure that less than the half have survived. It’s however a 1050 kg (2300 pounds) car pushed by an inline-four, twin cam engine which… Read More Ugly duckling: 1977 Lotus Eclat
It’s not uncommon to see some barn finds but it’s quite rare to see a preserved car like this one. It’s a 1960 Impala hardtop which seems to be just carried out from a time-proof capsule. The most astonishing detail of this car is of course the original plastic which still wraps both front and… Read More Still wrapped: 1960 Chevrolet Impala 2 doors
The seller seems a bit stingy of words to describe this car, so at least we try to tell a brief history about Kellison kit cars. In 1954 Jim Kellison, a former aerospace engineer from Folsom, California, penned the aggressive line of this car which was designed to be built on a rectangular section steel frame.… Read More Aggressive kit car: 1961 Kellison J5
This 1960 Fury Convertible is said to be a barn find and, indeed, it actually seems to be it. The overall conditions of this car are almost exceptional as it looks perfect and complete both inside and outside. Interiors are almost perfect and you can also find the period rocket-age steering wheel which is flattened… Read More Barn find Mopar: 1960 Plymouth Fury Convertible
The seller says that the mileage of this car is not guaranteed: chill out, we actually don’t need to know how many kilometers have been done with this car as it needs a total restoration. Unfortunately the photos are not good and made in very low resolution: sometimes we believe that some people must pay… Read More Mileage not guaranteed: 1967 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Coupé
We’ve seen many Mercedes 190 SL for sale, some were in desperate conditions, some perfectly restored, many good drivers but we’ve never seen a car like this, in such original and preserved conditions. The seller says that the first and only owner bought this car in 1963 from Mercedes-Benz of Hollywood, for $2,794. Many years… Read More Time machine: 1959 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL
