Nice Weekender: 1965 Oldsmobile Starfire Coupe

Becoming a separate model within Oldsmobile in 1961, the Starfire never came with four doors. Did you “Two doors too many!” folks hear that? This 1965 Oldsmobile Starfire Coupe is a car that most of us can agree with… more»

Former Museum Piece: 1937 Chevrolet Master

I’m going to run with the assumption this this 1937 Chevrolet Master sedan is a survivor. The listing states, “This vehicle was recently acquired from an Auto and Warbirds museum, where it was one of the center showpieces, kept… more»

Wild Styling! 1961 Dodge Polara

Yikes! I’m not sure how I’d describe this 1961 Dodge Polara. It has a Star Wars-esque bearing about itself, courtesy of Virgil Exner’s imaginative pen. Styling is always subjective and I sorta like this one but mostly don’t. It… more»

Low Mileage K-Car: 1988 Dodge Aries America

One of 527 Indy Pace Cars: 1995 Chevrolet Corvette

Hangar Find: 1981 Pontiac Firebird Formula Survivor

Okay, I have to admit it. I’ve always been on the fence with Pontiac’s second-gen (’70-’81) Trans Am. I think it’s the body flairs, faux shaker hood scoop, the excessive pinstriping on the “Smokey” editions, and in many cases,… more»

Clean Cruiser: 1970 Ford Thunderbird
