In America, if a little is good then more must be better, something we can see in the creation of this custom-built six-wheeled Jeep CJ (a vehicle once described as America’s only true sports car) that Off-Road Action came across not too long ago. * In America, we like to Read more

Considering “what-if” buildups of “never-was” cars

St. Louis, Missouri, circa 1950

While researching Fruehauf trailers for a recent story, we came across this photo of a Fruehauf Trailer sales and service branch in St. Louis, Missouri, from around 1950. There seem to be plenty of clues to the exact location, but we weren’t able to figure out exactly where this branch Read more

Hemmings Find of the Day – 1924 Dodge Trekster

What do you get when you cross a hand-built frame with a body influenced by a 1924 Dodge and powered by a 181-cu.in. Mercury Marine engine? The answer, apparently, is this 1924 Dodge Trekster, for sale on Hemmings.com. We’re not sure what makes it a 1924 Dodge, and we’re also Read more

AMX GT redux – popular concept car in the midst of re-creation

Photos by Mikel Smithson, except where noted. Couldn’t be that hard, many people think, to slam an AMX and a Gremlin together to re-create the long-lost 1968 AMX GT concept car, right?
