Have you ever thought of tracking down all the past cars you’d ever owned in your life? Well, you have your chance now - http://www.classiccarlink.com is a wonderful website which could help you. What’s more, Classic Car Link is a social networking site for classic car enthusiasts, which brings past and present owners together to share photos, information and stories.

Here is what UK Guardian wrote about this project: “When Laurie Cross’s dad decided he wanted to track down all the past cars he’d owned in his life, Laurie saw an opportunity to let the internet do the work. Along with his brother, the three of them have now set created classiccarlink.com. It’s a sort of Friends Reunited for much-loved vehicles. If they can bring enough people together, then they’ll be able to build a site through which past and present owners can share stories and photographs. The site has only been running for a month or two and currently has just over 300 members, but already they’ve managed to reunite one fellow with his old cars after 45 years. Sign up and see whatever happened to that Austin Healey you wished you’d never sold.” Read more!
