Coachbuilding is an art form from a bygone era. While a coachbuilt Bentley is almost unheard of these days, a few decades ago it was not so uncommon for Bentley customers to have their car sent to a coachbuilder to commission a more exclusive body. One such example is this exquisite 1951 Bentley Mark VI Special Boattail Speedster. The Mark VI was introduced in 1946 as Bentley’s first post-war model. The chassis were provided to independent coachbuilders and were built as 4 door saloons, 2 door saloons and 2 door drophead coupes. It was also available with a factory body, the “Mark VI standard steel sports saloon”, a 4-door saloon. 1202 4 ½ Litre models were built between 1951 and 1952, with just 180 of them being coachbuilt. Part of the reason for the low overall production numbers was the shortage of steel in Europe, which reportedly led to used models appreciating in value. Some of the more well-known coachbuilt models were those done by H.J. Mulliner, but many other coach-builders also commissioned these cars, including this example built by Northern Coachbuilders of Derbyshire, England.
The most significant aspect of this car is the gleaming, coachbuilt British Racing Green 2-door body. The giant headlamps, the wire wheels and the running boards have “’40s sports car” written all over them. One may be excused for underestimating this car until you go around the back, for here you get the true cherry on top of the design masterpiece that is this bodywork: the rear end. It’s easy to see why it got the “Boattail Speedster” part of it’s name, especially when the roof is down. The interior is color-coded to match the paintwork, with a simple but beautiful wooden dashboard. Being a right-hand drive car, the gear shifter is mounted on the floor on the right-hand side of the driver. The trunk has just enough space for a few small items and the spare wheel, but grocery-getting isn’t typically on the list of uses for a vintage coachbuilt Bentley.
The 4 ½ Litre variant built in 1951 and 1952 had the original displacement of 4.3L increased to 4.6L in the straight 6 engine. Since this is a right-hand drive example, it’s fed through 2 SU carburetors. The rear wheels are driven through a 4-speed synchromesh manual transmission.

Equipped with desirable comfort and styling options including ventilated massage seats, neck warmers, red brake calipers, and polished 21-inch propeller wheels, this W12-powered convertible offers the kind of analog-meets-modern Bentley experience that is becoming increasingly rare in today’s downsized performance luxury market.

This 2007 example shows approximately 44,634 miles and presents an appealing blend of factory elegance and modern updates. Finished originally in Bentley’s refined Moonbeam paint but currently wearing a dark blue vinyl wrap, this Continental GTC pairs timeless design with contemporary usability thanks to additions like a Tesla-style infotainment conversion and Reviver digital license plate.

There are custom builds, and then there are machines like this. This 1970 Volkswagen Beetle Restomod shows just 710 miles and represents a complete reimagination of one of the most recognizable economy cars ever built. Far removed from its humble air-cooled origins, this Beetle has been transformed into a full custom hot rod powered by a Chevrolet LT1 V8, riding on a tubular chassis, and engineered with hardware more commonly found in purpose-built performance cars. From its chopped roofline and wide rear stance to its remote-controlled suicide doors and bespoke interior, this is a build created to command attention wherever it goes. The title carries a rebuilt designation noted in title history, which should be fully disclosed, but this vehicle’s appeal lies in its craftsmanship, engineering ambition, and sheer uniqueness rather than originality.
Few cars symbolize the birth of the American pony car quite like the first-generation Ford Mustang. Introduced in 1964, the Mustang became an instant cultural phenomenon, redefining the performance car landscape with its stylish design, approachable pricing, and broad personalization options. This 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible captures that spirit beautifully, showing approximately 7,818 miles and finished in iconic Poppy Red over a matching Red interior with a crisp White convertible soft top. Equipped with V8 power, the desirable Pony Interior Package, styled steel wheels, and modern Bluetooth audio functionality, this Mustang blends timeless 1960s charm with upgrades that make it even more enjoyable to drive and own today.
The C3-generation Chevrolet Corvette represents one of the most iconic eras in American sports car history, instantly recognizable for its dramatic curves, long hood, and unmistakable road presence. By 1977, Chevrolet had refined the formula into a more comfortable grand touring machine while preserving the unmistakable V8-powered character that made the Corvette a household name. This 1977 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe, showing approximately 65,005 miles, presents as an appealing example that combines classic styling with thoughtful performance-minded upgrades. Finished in eye-catching Light Blue over a Light Buckskin interior, this Corvette offers far more than stock appeal thanks to a replacement 350ci LT1 V8, upgraded 4L60E 4-speed automatic transmission installed in 2023, and a newer dual exhaust system. For buyers seeking a C3 that retains its vintage charm while benefiting from modern drivability enhancements, this Corvette strikes a compelling balance between nostalgia and usability.
