The white "MGA" is a Victress body, built in the 1950s. The S-1A fit a 99" 
wheelbase, while the S-5 fit a 94" wheelbase (primarily MG T-series). They were 
kit cars, and well made (for the time). I have more info and copies of sales 
brochures if you decide to buy one.
The second car is a CMC Gazelle kit car, or the similar Piper Lance (there 
were a few others who also ripped off the CMC original). They had two versions, 
one for a VW chassis, one with a tube frame that took Pinto or Chevette 
running gear. The Victress would make a cool vintage racer, but the Gazelle is 
a 
street-only deal.
