| American Austin 5-window. British microcar, later known as the Bantam, built under license in the USA during the 1930s. Dark blue/black. 4-cylinder with 3 speed. New tires and tubes. Owned since 1956 by the proverbial old Lady from . . . not Pasadena, but Lancaster, Calif. who drove it sparingly around the desert town for all those years. Original 1956 pink slip!
A unrestored original, a true survivor, rust and accident free with beautifully preserved, totally virginal undercarriage. Runs smoothly and drives great!

Chrysler Town & Country "Barrelback Woody" 9-Passenger Sedan. One of just 797 such sedan-wagons built for the model year, this was Chrysler's first Woody, featuring a real White Ash and Honduran Mahogany wood structure. Often called "The World's first SUV"; barely a handful or two of these revolutionary, highly regarded collector cars survive today.
Incredibly, this excellently preserved original has had one local Southern California owner for all of its 68 years! From the 1940s through the 1970s, it was used by the Abercrombie-Converse family on their LINGDOOLEY RANCH in Santa Paula, a famous horse breeding site and boarding school. The Woody has been in dry storage for many years; now recommissioned by us it runs and drives!

Dunsmore Motor Traction Jaguar. British Racing Green, matching Connolly leather with red piping. 3.8 litre Speed-Six, 4-speed with overdrive. A bespoke car from a famous cottage manufacturer. At 110mph, a smart alternative to a 1920s Blower Bentley at a mere fraction of the cost.

Austin Healey 100/4 BN1. Designed, built and raced in 1959 by engineer John Scranton and once part of the famous Reggie Jackson collection, this absolutely stunning, all black Big Healey is powered by a built 327 Chevrolet engine, coupled to a Muncie 4-speed tranny. Featuring many eclectic vintage parts, among them an engine-turned aluminum dash and genuine Dragmaster International mag wheels, it's one of the finest cars of its kind in existence. Considering its insane power-to-weight ratio, it'll give a 427 Cobra or even a V-10-powered Viper a run for the money. Freshly tuned and dyno-tested, it's ready for show and go!

Porsche 912 Outlaw Coupé. Rennsport Silver over black. California black license plate 912.

Tice CAN-AM Special. A titled, street-legal, one-off CAN-AM road racer, powered by a 512 c.i. mid-engine Cadillac monster motor. Hand-fabricated, all aluminum body with Emilio Pucci livery, gullwing door, huge rear wing, and all the goodies you'd hope to find in a purpose built supercar.
Absolutely easy to drive in daily traffic (really), yet perhaps not the ideal car for somebody trying to keep a low profile.
