Where are they now? They’re here!
19 January 2012
Dear Classic American,... Please find enclosed a few pictures of the 1952 Cadillac convertible you featured a while ago in your ‘Where are they now? dept.’ As you can see there has been no work done yet, but in 2012 this will start.
First muscle car?
19 January 2012.
Dear Classic American,...When Tony Oksien was looking for the first muscle car, I don’t think he went far enough back in time. I would like to nominate the 1936 Buick Century.
Even more over here!

Dear Classic American,...I have really enjoyed the Steve Miles pictures and his entertaining and well-informed text.
South African mystery solved

Dear Classic American,...‘Over Here’ is one of my favourite features in Classic American and it was a car in the November issue on page 88 which caught my attention.
Dedication, that’s all you need!
17 November 2011.
Dear Classic American,...My name is Rob, I’m 28 years old and currently living with my brother in Writtle, Essex, and am the owner of the 1941 Ford Super deluxe Coupe that I bought from the Marvel Collection Auction back in March.
Chrome truths
17 November 2011.
Dear Classic American,...As any Cadillac aficionado will note, my Fleetwood sports a full chrome wheel, specially designed for the car; love ’em or hate ’em!
Desperately seeking...
20 October 2011.
Dear Classic American,...Ever since my twenties during the late Seventies and early Eighties, when I first saw a black and white model at a pre 50 AAC meeting at Cosgrove, I’ve been looking to buy 1959 two-door Dodge Custom Royal Lancer.
Star letter: Mad Men omission
20 October 2011.
Dear Classic American,...I thoroughly enjoyed the article in your October issue, Mad Man vs Mad Men by the late, great David E Davis Jr. I adore cars of this era, and the Continental and Riviera are among my very favourite American classics.
Thanks for the memories
15 September 2011.
Dear Classic American,... I just had to let you know that a sense of deja vu came over me after reading Will Shier’s Discoveries in the September issue.
Better than a Rolls...
15 September 2011.
