Ib Erik, maybe that should be number 9 on the list… ;-)

Dave, I seem to recall the 323F with pop-ups being available in a fairly rapid 1.8 liter GTi version as well? They were pretty cool back in the day. Been a fair few years since I’ve seen one though…

Sune, I just learnt a new anorak-fact today. Thank you! ;-)
Proper glass certainly doesn’t make the DS and SM headlights less cool.Ib Erik, yes, Ford and BMW are probably largely to blame for the current […]

Comparisons are often made between the headlights of a car and our eyes. As facial expression has everything to do with people’s eyes, it’s only natural that we often feel that a car’s “face” is largely defined b […]

The little Opel GT’s are indeed great looking classics. Sensual curves everywhere and then those fabulous rotating headlights! I recall the father of my ex-girlfriend from my early to mid 20’s owned a cute […]

Hmmmm… personally I don’t do electrics, so rarely need wire cutters.
I work on the theory that one should never touch what one can’t see! Electrics are off-limits. Cogs turning on the other hand – now that I […] -

Claus, best of luck with the sale then.
Please tell me you won’t be buying a M-B 190E instead… -

Claus, decals like that can easily and fairly cheaply be remanufactured using old factory pictures and brochures as reference. I did exactly that with my old ’77 Toyota Trueno back when I bought it. Correct […]

Great Report Søren – thx!
That Abarth display would have no doubt blown me away. The 2200 Allemano has always been a favourite of mine, and they’ve constructed some truly astonishing race cars.
That pre-war […] -

Those in the know will all tell you that Nippon classics – or J-tin – is the new black in the classic car scene. Furthermore, seventies-defining wedge design has been trendy for a while now. And it seems that cou […]

Not at all Tony – you made me giggle. Mostly because you’re clearly as confused as both Dave, Claus and myself. Even more so because you struggle in equal measures when trying to convince yourself that you’re […]

Phew… Thank you Dave!! Just really nice to know that I’m not the only one feeling utterly confused and at odds with my own emotions…
On one side, I must confess that it’s happening more often than ever, […] -

Dave, as far as I know, a complete new wooden jig was constructed first. Then panels beaten to shape for the new body. I can only presume such a jig has been preserved…

No need for you to be so humble – your knowledge of American engines clearly exceeds mine! You prompted me to look deeper into it, and you are of course right. The LT-1 did indeed use a Holley carb rather than […]

As far as design goes, the Momo Mirage and the Fiat 130 Coupé certainly have a whole lot in common – like you said Tony, they could almost be twins. I seriously doubt that there would have been any collaboration […]

And you are of course so right Tony!
Yes, in general terms, the classic car market has indeed skyrocketed during the past seven to eight years, but there are still good deals to be had even if you are an […] -

Well, if we’re talking a Ceylon-from-factory 2002tii, then it’s obviously not going to be cheap in the current market. Such a rare and utterly cool colour for a great little classic – wish you had better pics of it…
