Vintage/ Classic Car Websites?
June 29, 2016 8:12 AM

I am looking for recommendations for websites/ blogs that feature photo-heavy articles on classic and vintage automobiles. I already follow Petrolicious. I wouldn't mind something that skews a little more American muscle from the 80's and prior, but any and all recommendations from any genre are welcome.

Have you plowed through the archive at Ate Up With Motor? The effort that guy puts into every article is impressive. The photos are usually there more to illustrate a point than just look pretty, so they mostly aren't professional quality, but there are probably as many as you would have gotten with a magazine feature back in the day when printed car magazines were better than the internet.

You might like Bring A Trailer. It covers cars for sale, but dang there's a lot of nice pics of muscle cars.

You might check out dark roasted blend...while it mostly consists of photosets of general esoterica, there is plenty there for the autophile, including: concept cars of previous decades, kiddie cars, and high-end high-design cars from places you've never heard of that make a bugatti look like a toyota celica. Enjoy.

Speedhunters does photography-heavy features on all types of cars, though tends to lean more modern and Japanese Domestic Market.

Hooniverse is where a lot of the original Jalopnik commentariat fled to.

Old Parked Cars and Curbside Classic are in the vein of Murilee Martin's found-cars-photographed style.

It is more truck oriented but Daily Diesel Dose has lots of pictures and videos and very little annoying commentary.

You could try Hemmnings Classic Car.

Came to say Hemming's, but how about some Flipboard action? Follow a few magazines there.
