Forty-six years of Sebring, fat cars and trucks, and new staffers

Article Abstract:

The 1996 Sebring Grand Prix race had its usual array of high-performance vehicles. One that stood out was a 1960s generation Ford Bronco truck, which is smaller than the current version. In general, the cars and trucks of today are as big, or bigger than their counterparts of the 1950s and '60s.

Hate new-car dealers? Try buying an old XK-E!

Article Abstract:

The difficulties faced by the average car buyer in dealing with a car salesman are minimal when compared to buying a Series I Jaguar XK-E roadster from 1961-67. Because this model had problems with rust, finding one in good physical condition can be difficult; and prices for them vary greatly.

BMW 507: forty years old but still compulsively irresistible

Article Abstract:

The BMW 507 was the company's precursor to its new Z3 model, as well as its first-ever sports-car design. The 507 was introduced in the 1950s, a period during which BMW was a struggling company, and it became a commercial failure primarily due to its steep price of $8,988.
