You're Never to Old To Get Bit By The "Travel Bug"

By Arlene Martell

Travel is a funny thing. You really can't appreciate it unless you get the travel bug! For most people, once you start, you can't wait until the next trip.

I have amazing memories when I think of the trips I have been on. I can't imagine my life without these experiences and visiting other countries and cultures.

James’ Kit Car Site Is Getting a Birthday Makeover

By James Martell

The idea for a kit car site came to me more than two years ago. I loved kit cars – especially the 1965 Shelby Cobra S/C - and decided that I should create a site based around my hobby so that other enthusiasts could share in my enjoyment.

If you follow my newsletters, you already know that the 1965 Shelby Cobra has been at the top of my list for years. In fact, I dreamed of owning one since I first laid eyes on the Cobra in 1979. My wish finally peaked in 2004, when my affiliate marketing success allowed me to buy my dream car.
