As vintage car and motorcycle fans and collectors we have always loved browsing the classifieds of our favorite magazines and newspapers looking for unexpected treasures and lost classics. But such pleasures are becoming harder to find.

Beautiful Jaguar in Carnival Red with Sand interior. Some minor body scratches and blemishes. Drives like a dream and serviced by Octagon for the last two years. Full disclosure: The odometer stopped working four years ago (at 45,000 km), but the vehicle has never been driven long distances since. Also, the ‘check engine’ light has recently come on.

1998 Swift 008/014 Formula Atlantic race car

This 1998 Swift 008/014 Formula Atlantic race car was purchased new for use in the Pro-Atlantic Series.
I have four 008’s in my inventory at the time and this car, chassis #007, was their test chassis.
After it’s time on the track, it was stored for a number of years.
#007 qualified for the 2007 SCCA Runoffs. The Swift was purchased four years ago and has only track tested it for 8 laps in 2014 at New Jersey Motorsports Park.
The Swift is in original 008 configuration with 014 upgrades, and runs on a rebuilt Hasselgren Engineering powertrain consisting of a 1.6 liter
Toyota 4AGE inline-four mated to a Hewland NST 5 speed sequential gearbox. It is vintage eligible in SVRA and most sanctioning organizations,
and carries a CART registration #206.
