Found this 1275 LS project on Gumtree Australia in May 2022, asking $6,000 ONO. Looks like a fairly original example with most bits there. One of the last Australian Minis, this one is an October 1978 built car. See the others on the register - approaching 100 of these great limited edition 1275 Minis. The seller noted "Has back windows in the back of car ready for install. Keys in ignition."...

This is a rare 4-speed manual example of the 64 Daytona, also factory fitted with front disc brakes. A great colour combination in Midnight black paint with red trim, and has a bunch of other interesting options including heavy duty springs. This one was advertised on Craigslist USA, located in Dunlap, Tennessee at the time, and was asking $16,500 USD. In the original advertisement, the seller...

This big block 440ci Super Bee was advertised through Ebay USA by North Shore Classics ( see the original ad here). The ad does not clearly specify this, but we presume the car is a factory 440 unit - noting the price tag of $149,900 USD... That's some serious money for this car, so it would need to be the real deal. The seller noted in the original advertisement that the car was a concourse...

Another 850R Turbo imported to Australia - these are more prevalent than ever on Australian roads (which is a great thing). This example was offered on Grays auctions in May 2021 - bids just over 5K, reserve not yet met, and a couple of days to run on the auction at the time of writing. We've got one other 850 R Sedan in black on the register (but it's the earlier T5-R from 1995). This is the...

This Road Runner has an original 35,000 miles on the clock, and was described as a completely original unrestored vehicle when we spotted it on Ebay USA in May 2022. Unfortunately there were a limited number of images provided, and they aren't the best quality, but it does look in very solid original condition. It would be difficult to find a lower mileage more original example, me thinks. This is...

The second Super Bee from 1970 on the register - the 1970 model year is my favourite, with a very distinct "bee wing" front and rear end design. This colour has to be one of the best foir the 70s era - A Kermit green, which appeared in some form on most 1970s cars - even the classic Mini had a few colour options like this. I spotted this example on Ebay USA in May 2022, and at the time it was...

I never knew much about the "Super Bee" cars until I watched an episode of Rust Valley Restorers on Netflix - and I've instantly found these cars to be one of the muscle car gems of this great era. The large chrome grille rings on the front of the car are designed to resemble bee wings when you're viewing the car approaching - and the range were available in some great colours - this example in...

I've not been tempted to buy another car for some time - currently trying to finish off existing projects, but this one is testing my patience. The Daytona hardtop is at the top of my list of early US muscle cars, and this one claims to have been in storage since 1973 - and most importantly has very limited rust. The sills, doors and firewall all look very solid for a 64.. The seller also noted at...

Great to get another John Goss Special Falcon 500 hardtop on the register - this one was offered through Grays Auctions in April/May 2022 - and at the time of writing there were 4 days to run on the auction, and bids were already over $50,000. Looks to be a very solid and original example which has been partially disassembled. Most of it looks like it's there, but it's certainly not the hardest...

From the archives, this Barret Jackson auction goes back to 2010 where this beautiful 1954 Le Mans coupe was offered for sale - in my personal favourit body style with the angular rear pillar and wrap around glass.. This claims to be one of just 90 produced for the 1954 year. At the time it was offered, the seller noted it had undergone a three year nut and bolt restoration, with no expense spared...
