ClassicarGarage Newsletter 44, January 29 2010



Dear classic car enthusiast,

The year 2010 has started with lots of snow and ice in our region! I hope spring will come early this year!  Despite the weather conditions we faced the cold. Nine excellent classic cars were tested and photographed last month. Very special is the superb and fully original 1974 Alfa Romeo Giulia GT 1600 Junior which drove only 57.332 kilometers from new! And what to think of the breath-taking beautiful and scarce 1938 Talbot Lago T23 cabriolet with bodywork by the famous French coachbuilders Figoni et Falaschi! A great investment is also the magnificent 1968 Jaguar E-type 4.2 Litre OTS roadster. Prices for excellent series 1.5 roadsters are still quite low compared to the series 1 models... We also present impressive restoration updates from the workshop of Piet Mozes Restorations and some websites thru which you can follow our work and our latest news.
 
Sincerely,
Marc Vorgers.
