Bloomington Gold Survivor: 1957 Corvette 4 spd 245hp 283ci

Corvette owners have been known to go overboard about liking their cars just the way they left the factory; this is one of those cars that Corvette-nuts are all over. There is no group quite so committed to ‘original’ or ‘survivor’ cars like Corvette enthusiasts, they eat this stuff up. This particular one needs a [...]

Great All-A-Rounder: 1964 Red PORSCHE 356 1600 SC Karmann T-6 Coupe

The attractive thing about this Porsche 356 is not one specific detail, rather that the car as a whole looks great. It simply jumps off the page in pictures, the fit and finish look fantastic and these cars are gaining in desirability each year. This one appears to have been done right, kept well and [...]

Ford GT, No Top: 2006 Ford GTX1 by Genaddi Design

The Ford GTX1 is everything the 2005-06 Ford GT’s are and more. The largest change is the addition of a substructure that allows a fully removable roof for open top, supercar motoring. Beyond that, you get more power, carbon fiber every where and bits like upgraded wheels and interior. With less than 40 built, these [...]

1200 Miles From New: 1996 Ford Mustang Cobra SVT with Mystic Paint

If you want to buy a car you can occasionally enjoy for the next few decades and sell at Barrett Jackson in 20 years, look no further than this 1 of 2,000, 1996 Mystic Cobra. You could buy this Mustang, drive it on a nice day here and there and probably still have less than [...]

Always Been a Racer: 1959 Lotus Elite, Series I #1054

We always like finding cars that were raced back in the day and are still raced, like this 1959 Lotus Elite. The owner claims it’s got history back to the ’60′s; it’s still running today and competed in the 2003 Monterey Historics. This Elite is currently on EBay in Tempe, AZ with 9 bids up [...]

First Year in the U.S.A.: 1987 BMW E24 M6 with 89k Miles

Here’s another BMW with those classic looks and one that will make a really fun daily driver. 1987 was the first year BMW officially brought the E24 body-style M6 to the United States. They came from the BMW factory with 256hp which was easily upped to almost 290hp by removing U.S. emissions controls. This car [...]

Needs Some Finishing: 1962 Porsche 356 Super 90 Coupe

As an alternative for the previously-finished cars we’re normally looking for, here’s a 1962 Porsche 356 Super 90 in need of completion. It’s got a suitable looking Silver bare-metal respray and the owner claims the engine and trans were recently rebuilt. While we think it’s priced a bit on the high side at $33,500, with [...]

Golf Yellow: 1974 BMW 2002tii Coupe

School buses are painted yellow as it’s supposed to be the easiest color to see in all conditions. Guess that means this BMW 2002 should stand out in a crowd. Looks to be in good shape as well, could be a fun driver for $13,995.

British-American Mixture: 1954 Austin Healey 100 with Ford 289 V8

Classic British looks with V8 American power; sounds like a great mixture to us [purists best look elsewhere]. This 1954 Austin Healey has been transformed with the addition of a Ford 289 cubic inch V8 and T10 four-speed. We’re OK with transplant’s like this one, as there are other ‘perfect’ Healey’s out there, probably sitting [...]
