Once again the seller of this car didn’t talk about the build year of this european Ford, but the front grille looks like the one installed on The Monte Carlo model so this car should have been produced between 1953 and 1955. As reader Lagunatich says, this is not a Monte Carlo but an early… Read More Uncertain birth: 1952 Ford Cométe
I barely remeber the Deauville because my father had it (for one week only) when I was younger than 10: I however remember how luxurious were the interiors and how huge was the torque of its 350 c.i. Ford engine. The Deauville, designed by Tom Tjaarda, was made to compete with Mercedes and Jaguar on their own playground… Read More Muscle luxury sedan: 1976 De Tomaso Deauville
This particular (and, to us, very fascinating) cabriolet Called Zephyr Six (aka Mark I) was built by Ford UK from 1950 to 1956 and it was considered a full-size car. Although it could seem a small car at a glance, it was equipped with a ohv, inline-six engine with a 2,200 cc displacement, producing 68… Read More Brick-shaped classic: 1955 Ford Zephyr Six Convertible
Ok we don’t know if this car was made in 1964, 65 or 66 as the seller didn’t say it, so we have decided to publish it with the first production year of this series. Indeed the seller didn’t say much about the car: basically he said nothing of this car but is prepared according… Read More Affordable racer: 1964 Ford Cortina Lotus
The ’37 Ford brought a change in the lines of Ford cars: it had softer lines than its predecessor, the Model 48, a V-shaped grill and two beautiful teardrop shaped headlights. Other than that, this barn find looks very healthy although its black paint has become dull. The front bumper looks missing but the seller says… Read More Rodders away: 1937 Ford Coupé
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
If we must be sincere, we don’t like the Cortina so much under the aesthetic point of view. It has a quite bulky look but no one can say that it hasn’t temper. Moreover this car, cute or not, “gives its opinion” in every classic cars race it joins, thanks to its lightness and the… Read More Like Jim Clark: 1965 Ford Cortina Lotus
My friend (and reader) Seth was looking for an “obscure” Italian coupé and this (although it’s Ford Taunus based) is the car he has chosen. This car has been featured here some weeks ago. Seth is not a “garage collector” but a driver: he will drive this car accross eastern Europe with his family during… Read More Mission accomplished: The red OSI goes to NY
With this car, five are the OSI 20M published by us: almost a record as probably only an handful of these cars are still alive. Everytime we see an OSI, we think that this car has a huge presence (the car is 4.6 meters long and 1.8 wide) and looks more expensive than it really… Read More Million dollar face: 1968 OSI 20M TS Coupé
Including these two cars we suppose to be the only one ever to have posted four OSI 20M TS, an oddball italian car based on the Ford Taunus. Other cars published could be found below the article, in the “related” section. The seller says that both cars were first registered in december 1967: one seems… Read More 20M stash: two 1967 OSI 20M TS Coupé
