One web site that’s not for faint of heart

Amongst gear heads, there is always that ‘barn find’ that keeps our eyes  left and right while driving down country roads. There’s a car waiting out there with your name on it and your tool box is getting rusty with each passing month. If you’ve never traveled this site, it’s awesome. It’s the ultimate Friday afternoon, God I’m waiting for 5 pm, mental escape trip.

This was sent over by long time PR friend from Canada, Doug. Thanks amigo!

    That racing Morgan is the one that caught my eye in the daily listing that included that 1800.

    That 1800E is certainly attractive, but is is an amalgam of a ’64 or earlier car and the ’71E, which has its demerits in the perfectionist crowd. I’m sure its a fun ride however. Driving one of these “Italian Elegance” Swedes is a trip. My ’73ES seems to attract plenty of attention whenever I take if for a ride. In fact, I call it a “babe magnet” as my wife is constantly telling other women what it is as we drive.
