People interested in quirky and obscure automobiles might want to give this car, located in Prague, Czech Republic, a good look. The Popular was actually one of Skoda's more successful models in the 1930s, and wore several different bodies. Predictably, some were more attractive than others. The prettiest was probably the Monte Carlo, but the Coupé is a close second. It has the same elegant profile with swooping tail and cool fin running down … [Read more...]
Morgan announced the Plus 4 in 1950 as the larger, more powerful version of their 4/4. It was altogether a more modern sports car but, this being Morgan, the Plus 4 was still charmingly behind the times. Styling and construction was not all that different from what it had been or what it would continue to be. To rework the 4/4 into the Plus 4, Morgan lengthened the wheelbase, added hydraulic brakes, and fitted the 2088 cc engine from the Standard … [Read more...]
One of the more prized and valuable early Porsches, the Speedster was actually conceived as an effort to keep costs down. U.S. importer Max Hoffman, like most, knew that the American market was the most important one for postwar sports car manufacturers, and while Porsche’s 356 was a popular car on both road and track, it was also expensive. Purchase price was usually around $4,000, which put the tiny 356 with its Beetle DNA in the same … [Read more...]
We tend to think of the Dino as the baby Ferrari of the Enzo-era, but there was another, smaller, more obscure car with Ferrari DNA that hit the road during the 1960s. Autocostruzioni Società per Azioni, or ASA, and their 1000 GT were the realization of Ferrari's desire to sell a smaller, more affordable car. The car featured here, located in Hinsdale, Illinois, is one of only around fifty examples of this vague chapter in Ferrari history. … [Read more...]
The story of the Sunbeam Tiger is so much like the story of the AC Cobra and, partly because of their similar narratives, the cat has always lived in the shadow of the snake. Both were small but established UK carmakers who, in need of engines for their small sports cars, opted for American cubic inches from Ford. Both also benefitted from the indispensable involvement of Carroll Shelby and Shelby American. … [Read more...]
Before the Abarth name had become synonymous with zippy Fiat-based rockets, Carlo Abarth was working with Ferdinand Porsche, among others, at Cisitalia. When that company failed as it was building its last car, the 204, Abarth decided to continue building cars that utilized Fiat components under his own name. … [Read more...]
One usually associates the Lancia name with zippy little rally cars like the Stratos, Fulvia, and 037. While these cars certainly brought Lancia most of its fame and success, the Turin-based company also built larger GT cars that were stunning to look at, even if they weren't record breakers on the track. The car featured here, a 1966 Flaminia GT located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is one of the most desirable of the big Lancias out there. … [Read more...]
Named to celebrate Fangio and Behra's 1957 triumph at Sebring, and styled by Vignale, the Maserati 3500 Sebring is one of the most purposeful, if less celebrated, Italian GT cars of the 1960s. The Sebring was based on the commercially successful and equally handsome 3500 GTI. … [Read more...]
The Lotus Elan proved to be a significant improvement over the Elite that it replaced in 1962. The Elan still had its flaws, though, and played its part in solidifying Lotus's unfortunate reputation for fragility. That less-than-stellar build quality means that a lot of these old Lotuses do not easily endure harsh treatment and neglect. … [Read more...]
