Two Great Classic Car Sites Worth Viewing
Filed in archive As We See Things , Automobilia , Catalogs by Philip Powell on April 20, 2008

I'm always delighted to discover a new (to me) classic cars site that I can recommend to our viewers. In this case two, although they're both connected. The first, a Web site, is called The Old Car Manual Project. It contains an interesting variety of features, including 100's of brochures to which you are invited to contribute, repair manuals for dozens of old cars, free want ads, and some very useful links. The site is not-for-profit, although it accepts donations to help pay housekeeping costs and has a long list of international contributors. It's sister, the Old Car Blog, is an easily-navigated blog site with a news/opinion column and reader contributions that anyone who owns a collector car will find handy. The above brochure illustration heads up the home page. (Looks like my late mother's 1934 Pontiac, although hers was a 4-door with an inline eight.) Special thanks to former car magazine colleague and ex-racer Diana Carter for making me aware of these sites. Diana and I recently enjoyed a reunion after a 40-year gap. Of course, we haven't aged a bit.
