I have the original bodywork from my Lotus Eleven down in the barn and have been thinking about building another car with it. That way I can have two cars that are the same car. The biggest problem i

Back in the '50's I used to shoot muzzle loading rifles with my Dad. Of course they were real 19th Century rifles. A lot of others started to do the same; hold contests, etc. Didn't take long to real

I have to disagree with the first statement - I'm sorry, but I do not want to see (the possibility, at least, of) grids of kit-car Cobras racing with originals. I do agree that production cars should

I'm afraid you've missed the point. You are pretty right that many old cars have a number of replacement parts in them, but do you think someone on an MGB budget is suddenly going to be able to affo
