A mechanic/garage find stack of classic Car and Driver—the kind of vintage car journalism that reads like a time machine: road tests, racing reports, and those incredible full-page period ads you only see in midcentury magazines.
This bundle includes Aug 1963, Mar 1966, Apr 1966, and Feb 1968, with cover stories touching everything from Lamborghini 350 GT and Saab to BMW 2000 CS, TR-4, and Maserati Ghibli (photo-shown).
Feb. 1968 edition has water damage and cover staining, but no pages are stuck together, and all interiors are packed with sharp photos and readable info.
Photo-verified condition, protective packaging standard, ships in 1 business day.
