This ‘66 Griffith is the type of car we love finding. Owned by the same fellow since 1967, it was raced at places like Watkins Glen as well as driven on the street. Cars like this one have a history, the tell a story and that’s a great part of car collecting and ownership. This Griffith is currently on EBay with Reserve Not Met at $52,100 and 38 bids. …Read More »

Here’s a chance to own a unique 4 cylinder racer, with some cool history, for probably less than the cost of an engine rebuild on most V8’s. This Fiat Abarth ran the 2007 La Carrera Panamericana in Mexico, starting dead last but finishing in the top 50. Could be a hoot, currently on EBay with Reserve-Not-Met at $7,600. …Read More »

December 2, 2009: This car has been re-listed on EBay under the same seller. On the previous auction it was bid up to $178,300 but was a No Sale. We’ve updated the links, check out the new description.

September 22, 2009: Here is a truly unique hot rod. Built by Steve Moal of Moal Coachbuilders for actor Tim Allen, they dubbed it the “Licorice Streak.” Steve Moal has designed some of the most sought after hot rods in the world and rarely does one come up for sale. The fact that this is owned by Tim Allen, a huge “car guy,” makes it that much more special. …Read More »

November 18, 2009: This ///M striped BMW is back up on EBay under the same seller. He’s reduced the Buy It Now from $21,495 to $19,495; we still think the car is great if the history can be proven. We’ve updated the links and pricing.

October 13, 2009: Here’s an unusual one for you BMW guys. The seller claims this is one of two cars professionally built by BMW Motorsport N.A. for the 1987-1988 IMSA International Sedan Series. Assuming that’s the case, this isn’t just any 325is but a factory-backed production based race car. This car is painted the right colors, white with tricolor “M” stripes and the sponsorship by Warsteiner makes sense, as they were big sponsors of BMW around this time, especially of the E30 M3’s running the DTM class in Europe. That said, it’s very easy to paint a car up in this fashion, so we’d like to see some more paperwork. If the seller can prove it’s provenance, which it sounds like he can, this car could be a solid deal at $19,495. …Read More »

Jim Kellison was an Air Force pilot during the Korean War who later studied aircraft engineering at UCLA. In 1954, he founded Kellison Engineering and begain professionally engineering sports cars with fiberglass bodies, at a price point sometimes twice that of a Corvette! For more info on Kellison, his company and his cars, check out this great aritcle in
Kit Car Magazine. This particular Kellison “Special” (the seller claims 1 of 5) is fitted with a fuel-injected Corvette 327 so you’ll be able to hold your own against those big Ferrari V-12’s when you’re placed next to them on the grid. Because this particular car is eligible for some many vintage events, $175,000 seems like a reasonable point of entry, especially when you factor in that you get to run with the multi-million dollar Ferrari’s, Jags, Cobra’s and the like. …Read More »

We know, yes… a lot of Mustang’s lately. What can we say, we love them. This car is pretty straight forward, Red/Black with some Shelby bits, the reason we posted it here is the price, $15,000. It wasn’t long ago that bare Mustang fastback shells were selling for that money and if this car is as nice as it looks in pictures, it may be a great deal. …Read More »

If you’ve been looking for a fully prepped B Production vintage racer at a reasonable price, this Sunbeam may be a good option. At an asking price of $55,000 this Tiger is probably one of the most cost effective ways to get out and run with Shelby Mustangs and Cobras while not worrying quite as much about your wallet. This car has a long list of events it’s previously competed in, literally dozens of events on the West Coast from Thunderhill down to Coronado over the past 10 years. We often prefer a car that’s been driven and used, especially if the new owner plans to use it, as hopefully a lot of the bugs are already worked out. …Read More »

Looking to run the Carrera Panamericana and on a budget? This Ford Falcon could be your affordable ticket. Don’t know what the Carrera Panamerica is but you’re a racer guy or at least someone who’s looking to race a vintage car? What you need to know is that it’s the last open, top-speed road race of its kind in the world. Seven days of flat out racing on closed public roads running 2,000 miles through Mexico north to the Texas border. It is a revival of the famous international Pan Am that was conducted between 1950-1954, a great tribute to a historic event. …Read More »
