Undiscovered Classics

Undiscovered Classics focuses on the history behind and the celebration of American handcrafted sports cars from the postwar era. Largely untold, this story and these cars were central to the theme of postwar sports car development and appreciation, influencing design and expectations for Detroit and America in a significant way. We don’t just write about history. Instead, we go out and find the history whether it be in magazines, archives, the cars themselves and the people that designed and built them. Cars with names such as Glasspar, Wildfire, Allied, Tiburon, Byers, Meteor, Kurtis, LaDawri, Grantham Stardust, Devin, Victress and so many more. And what we find gets shared with folks – in real time – on the web, in magazines, on TV, in podcasts, on our Facebook page and other social media outlets. Undiscovered Classics is not the mission of just one person. It’s an opportunity to participate with research itself and the restoration and celebration of these lost cars. It’s not a passive enterprise – it’s an active one where you can make a difference. And it’s far more than an individual effort – it’s a community and family of those automobile enthusiasts who want to participate and have fun in a completely different way – one where you can have an impact on the history and appreciation of these cars in the automotive community at large.
