Keith’s Blog: SCM’s Bradley GT Finds a New Home
The next chapter in the life of the Bradley GT has started.
It sold last week on Bring A Trailer for $4,000. There were over 12,000 views of the auction. If we had charged just $1 for each view, think how far ahead we would be.
Our good friends at the Avant-Garde Collection, Matt Crandall and Josh Bryan, created the posting, and I must say the Bradley has never looked so good.
The new owner is Mark Brachmann, from Read More

Keith’s Blog: Leave Your Car Alone
I’d like to start following my own advice.
When someone tells me they have acquired a new classic car, one of the first things I say to them is to just leave it alone.
Attend to any basic running and safety issues and have the car inspected. (My 1967 Duetto’s brakes failed 30 miles after I bought the car. This happened while I was descending a curved section of a parking garage exit ramp. It created some excitement.)

Keith’s Blog: A Renault Le Car Wins SCM Choice at the European Auto Festival!
It’s not as formal as a concours, but more upscale than a cars and coffee.
This was my third year as emcee of the European Auto Festival in Greenville, SC.
Held on a golf course adjacent to an Embassy Suites hotel, the Euro Auto Festival is a delightful event.
The mix of cars is eclectic, ranging from air-cooled Porsche SCs to Jaguar E-types all the way to surprise cars, such as this year’s barn-find Renault Le Car and three Opel Read More
