the North Park Car Show





this is still the only MotoRegister I've ever seen, and how I made a friend several years ago at a car show, this is Randy's Model A, and he has a couple very cool era specific accessories on it that in the entirety, combine for a most exceptional  Model A




an AMC Spirit, posted to remind us all that AMC didn't disappear after the Javelin, AMX, and Machines









which has a smaller and more useless back seat? The Austin Healey 3000, or the Morgan 3 wheeler? You can't fit anyone over the age of 3 in either cars back seat

Bob Russell never gave up hope that his stolen 1967 Austin-Healey would be found one day.

 He was a graduate student at Temple University in 1970 when he parked the English roadster at an apartment complex after a date with his future wife.

 When he went to the lot the next morning, the car was gone. Because he was a cash-strapped student, it was a double whammy: He had liability coverage, but no theft insurance.

 For more than four decades, Russell searched for the cream-colored convertible. This year, against all odds, he found it. And with the help of the Philadelphia Police Department, he has his Austin-Healey back.

 Russell was scouring eBay, the Internet sales website, when he spotted his hot car listed for auction by a Los Angeles auto dealer.

The listed VIN matched his beloved Austin. Russell, now living near Dallas, still possessed the title and set of keys.
