The first mid-engined road car to bear the Cavallino Rampante badge was a long time in the making, with the development of the 365 GT4 Berlinetta Boxer beginning in the late 1960s and not appearing in showrooms until 1973. This gestation period can be attributed to the..
By 1974, the American muscle car was all but dead due to increasingly stringent emissions regulations that strangled performance, hitting large-displacement cars especially hard. However, there was one holdout for the 1974 model year: the Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Super Duty 455. Although it was equipped with some smog equipment, beneath the Fir..
In 1972, Porsche introduced what has come to be regarded as one of its finest variations on the classic 911 platform: the 2.4 S. It featured a 190 hp, fuel-injected flat-six engine, improved type 915 transaxle, and myriad refinements that made the magnificently engineered sports car a well-rounded performer. Just 1,430 S coupes were completed fo..
As the successor to the legendary 300 SL series built from 1954 to 1962, the W113 SL had enormous shoes to fill. The German automaker shifted the focus of the SL to be more of a volume seller, and the Paul Bracq-designed roadster was hailed as the next great Mercedes-Benz.

As early as 1958, Henri Chapron began purchasing complete DS models directly from Citroën, as required, to create special coachwork for them. One variant, the Majesty, featured a higher and more angular roofline than the factory DS, similar to the Concorde, providing increased headroom for the rear passengers and greater interior space.

In 1955, Citroën introduced the revolutionary DS19 sedan. Despite new coachbuilt cars being few and far between at that time, Henri Chapron made body modifications to a DS19 in 1958, without the endorsement of Citroën. Chapron’s name was synonymous with exquisite coachwork of French marques including Delahaye, Talbot-Lago, and Delage throughout ..
Henri Chapron was a prominent Parisian coachbuilder of Art Deco-style automobiles in the 1930s. Following WWII, the need for such coachwork was diminishing. In 1958, with the introduction of the new Citroën DS, Chapron decided to create hand-built custom bodies without the support of Citroën. Chapron was initially required to purchase complete c..
Following the revolutionary DS19 introduced at the Paris Motor Show in October 1955, Citroën created a successor to the model with the DS21. The 21 improved on the 19 with an increase in power from 75 to 125 hp. Both featured hydropneumatic suspension, allowing the vehicle to operate while balanced on three wheels if necessary. Until the 1950s, ..
This stunning US-delivery 911 2.4 T was factory-specified in the rare, vibrant color of Dalmatian Blue and nicely optioned, including the Comfort Package and front and rear stabilizer bars. After time in the Pacific Northwest, the Porsche was acquired by enthusiast Charles Coviello of Connecticut. In 2010, Coviello had a restoration performed by..
