The Mrs: 1978 Dutton Phaeton Series 1

Sometimes a picture says a thousand words.  Sometimes, a lady with hands on her hips says a million words.  Today, we've got a little of each -- and for this next car I am going to let the seller's wife take it from here:  Honey, are you comin to dinner?  Your dinner is gonna be cold -- I swear he spends more time in the garage with that '78 Dutton Phaeton Series 1 he's tryin a-sell on craigslist for $5,000 than his gran-kids, who aren't even that far from Kansas City.  Tip from Zach Z.

White Knight: 1978 Lotus Esprit S1

You'd have to be brain dead to not love Giorgetto Giugiaro's Series 1 Lotus Esprit -- its polygonal folded paper design is drop dead gorgeous and beyond reproach. It is also extremely affordable compared to similar era supercars like a Lamborghini Countach or Porsche 911 Turbo.  It may have something to do with small inline-4 cylinder engine tucked under the stylish sheet metal fiberglass, but going slow is cool these days...right?  Find this 1978 Lotus Esprit S1 offered for $14,000 in Miami, FL via craigslist.  Tip from Greg.
