If you don’t look at your car as a means of transport but feel a real attachment toward your ride, you’ll find yourself on this site.

If you feel the love for your vehicle … maybe you even talk to it, you’re part of The Burning Oil community.

If you have a story to share about a detail of your vintage car that you think you’re the only one to notice, you’re not alone!

If you’re a classic car enthusiast too, contact us and share your story, we’ll feature it and create a community around it.

On The Burning Oil, you’ll discover my collection of American classic cars, as well as British sports cars and some unique European classic cars. I share their history and unique features, along with details of their place in the history of the automotive industry – both back in the day and today. I also share links to the best car restoration experts to be found today.

I’m Marco, pleased to meet you! My story as a classic car enthusiast began almost 40 years ago, as a young boy in Milan. Since then, I’ve come a long way, but my passion for unique European vintage cars and vintage American Jeeps has never waned. And neither has my obsession!
