Japanese Power-train Conversion: 1969 Triumph TR-6 R33 RB25DET Swap

TwoSeatsOrLess — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 05:19:57 +0000

This Triumph TR-6 is a bit of an odd mixture, it’s a British chassis fitted with a Japanese Spec R33 turbo motor/trans. So, you’ve got British open-top styling which we like, coupled with Japanese reliability (in theory)… could be a pretty cool driver. This Triumph is on EBay at $15,000 with 17 bids [...]

Salt City Special: 1928 Ford Model T Salt Racer Hotrod

TwoSeatsOrLess — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 05:23:28 +0000

The days of summer are calling and nothing is more suitable [in our dreams] than a hot rod with open pipes and an open top. We like ‘old school,’ we appreciate anything that once ran flat out on the salt flats and we love unique touches that pop out at you the more you [...]

Brun Motorsport’s Last 962 Chassis: 1990 Brun Porsche 962-008BM

TwoSeatsOrLess — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 05:29:12 +0000

Racing driver Walter Brun formed Brun Motorsport in 1983; they went on to campaign numerous Porsche 956’s and 962’s with a large amount of success, including a World Sportscar Championship in 1986. In the later days of Brun Motorsport the company constructed 8 chassis and built their own 962’s, this car is the last [...]

Bonneville Land Speed Record Car: 1952 Buick Straight-8 Lakester

TwoSeatsOrLess — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 05:29:25 +0000

With the Bonneville Salt Flat season approaching, we figure there’s no better time to start working on your land speed attempt. We’ve always had a bit of an affinity towards going fast, which is the sole focus of Bonneville. Believe it or not, this car set a record in 2001 at 175.041mph. [...]

La Carrera Panamericana Rally Car: 1952 Packard Mayfair

TwoSeatsOrLess — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 04:29:40 +0000

Never contemplated buying a Packard, huh? Neither did we, until we realized this 1952 Packard Mayfair could be a great way to run La Carrera Panamericana on the cheap. It’s been run there before, in 1999 and with a bit of work, it looks like it would be ready to head back. [...]

Entry Level Classic: 1971 Porsche 914 with 2.4L

TwoSeatsOrLess — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 03:49:10 +0000

While Supercar Experience Palm Beach was great, we’re back to real life and that means something a bit more affordable. Porsche 914’s are nimble little cars and truly one of the best all-around entry level classics you can buy. This one has $13,000 in recent receipts but is currently listed on EBay in [...]

Great Event: Supercar Experience Palm Beach 2010

TwoSeatsOrLess — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 05:05:50 +0000

We’ve been away for a few days and haven’t been able to post. However, our excuse is that we were at Supercar Experience (SCE) Palm Beach, enjoying ourselves with some fantastic automobiles. This event is put on by John Temerian and Jan Otto and attracts people and cars from around the country. [...]

Cherry Early Bimmer: 1972 BMW 2002tii

TwoSeatsOrLess — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 04:58:36 +0000

Yes, it’s ‘bimmer’ and not ‘beemer’ or ‘beamer.’ We don’t know why, all we know is that this 2002tii is really sweet looking. Plus, this is really the car that change the perception of BMW’s after WWII; it really formed a foundation for the car company we know today. A lot of [...]

17k Miles From New: 1993 Mazda RX7 Turbo – One Owner

TwoSeatsOrLess — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 05:55:15 +0000

The Mazda RX7 was Motor Trend’s sports car of the year in 1993 with almost 300 hp, neutral balance, light weight Japanese technology. This is a prime example, as a one owner Arizona car with only 17K miles. Often with low mileage examples sellers ask over-market prices but this one is pretty reasonable [...]

No Top, No Windshield, No Problems: 1929 Model A Highboy Street Rod

TwoSeatsOrLess — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 05:34:34 +0000

Practicality, who needs it? That’s what the SUV or the family sedan is for; this hot rod is for cruising. Out on the open road, opening up the pipes and blaaaaating down the highway will make just about anyone smile. Plus, doing it in true old-school hot rod style is an added [...]
