Solid Bumpside: 1972 Ford F-250 Explorer

4K Mile 1991 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce

60k Miles? Two-Owner 1973 Oldsmobile Toronado

No Reserve 1948 DeSoto Custom Club Coupe

I’ll come right out and say it: I’ve never owned a car from the 1940s. It’s a shame, really, because it’s an important decade in the history of our country, and on top of that, it’s a decade apart… more»

BF Auction: 1990 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1

It’s rare that I’ll pass up the opportunity to talk about “Bullet Birds,” the futuristic 1961-63 version of Ford’s fabulous Thunderbird. They have long been my favorite T-Bird, enough so that I own a ’63 model, so I’m in… more»
