Remember Hispano-Suiza? Even if you're familiar with the name, it's unlikely you remember it. The Spanish automaker all but disappeared after WWII, save for the French part of the company that produced aircraft components (don't ask). The brand has become part of a coterie of once high-profile, now faded carmakers and coachbuilders looking to rise again. Revived by cofounder Damián Mateu's great-grandson, Hispano Suiza dropped its hyphen and showed what it claimed to be a 1,005 hp, Art Deco–inspired all-electric performance car, the Carmen, in 2019. That same year, Delage, shuttered since 1954, had its name relicensed and unveiled a 1,100 hp, tandem-seated prototype hypercar. And last November, investors announced the return of famed engineer Giotto Bizzarrini's eponymous marque from the '60s. Two months later, the group revealed plans to build 24 examples of the 5300 GT Revival Corsa, a car inspired by the 1960s-era Bizzarrini 5300 GT. "When vehic...

He made his way through the checklist of new tasks that real-estate agents have had to master during the pandemic: opening windows, setting up hand-sanitizer stations, wiping down surfaces. Abrams anticipated that the three-bedroom midcentury-modern would attract considerable attention, given its unusual architecture and desirable location. But he wasn't prepared for what he saw out the window 15 minutes before go time. The line of people was dozens long and already snaking around the cul-de-sac. Abrams felt his anxiety spike.  Is this safe?,  he wondered. It was six months into a global pandemic. Nationally, 740 people were succumbing to coronavirus every day. Public-health officials were advising Americans to avoid crowded places and indoor gatherings. And millions of people were out of work. For a time, agents had reason to believe they could wind up...
