With all the hubbub over the 21-window Volkswagen Buses – and the crazy prices they are still commanding – perhaps it’s time to look at some cheaper alternatives with the same amount of sunlight on board. This 1949 Flxible… more»
Your New Food Truck? 1973 Citroen HY Van
When it comes to vintage trucks and vans, it’s hard to deny their appeal strictly from a character standpoint. There’s something about a rig that’s been used for mundane tasks and assignments that survives to live a nice retirement… more»
The Poor Man’s LM002: 1998 Laforza
Despite being a infamous sales flop, the Laforza SUV still pops up more than you’d expect on the used truck market. These were oddballs from Day 1, not possessing any single great skill and wrapped in a seriously forgettable… more»
Junkyard Trooper, Part 3: She Runs!
I’m going to get in front of some potential disappointment right now and tell you this: I don’t have a video of my junkyard Trooper running. Blame it on the Georgia heat, but I neglected to document the truck… more»
5-Window Survivor: 1952 Chevrolet 3100
When Chevrolet designed its various pickup trucks throughout the 50s and 60s, I doubt they had any inkling that the number and size of windows in the cab would determine their future worth. This 1952 Chevrolet 3100 pickup is… more»
27,536 Original Miles: 1985 Oldsmobile 88
When it comes to cars owned by little old ladies, the Oldsmobile 88 is perhaps in the hall of fame of vehicles favored by older drivers. This one is a Georgia survivor, with under 30,000 original miles and just… more»
Free, Plus Delivery! 1974 Dodge Travco
When a vehicle is free and the seller is willing to transport it to you, there might be some alarm bells going off in your head. Of course, who can blame anyone that has a rodent and bug-infested 1974… more»
French 3-Seater: 1983 Talbot Matra Murena
Here’s a rare bird: a 1983 Talbot-Matra Murena with the larger 2.2L four-cylinder engine. This particular car (and brand) was not seen in North America, but the Murena was imported early in its life into Canada, arriving in Montreal… more»
Classic Daily Driver: 1981 AMC Eagle
There’s a bubbling appreciation for the 1981 AMC Eagle, as enthusiasts realize just how far ahead of their time these early SUVs were and the impressive utility they offer in a cheap-to-run package. This example is quite clean with… more»
American Breadvan: 1975 Corvette Sportswagon
If you need to drive a Corvette, 1975 was probably one of the years to avoid. Lower power, reduced compression, the elimination of the big block – things were not good in Corvette land. However, there are ways to… more»
Potential Bargain? 1971 Jaguar XJ6
It’s hard to believe at the moment there are no bids on this extremely cheap 1971 Jaguar XJ6. This is one of the prettiest iterations of this long-lived line, in my opinion, with its slim bumpers and narrow pillars…. more»
19,285 Original Miles: 1988 Pontiac Firebird
Is a 1988 Pontiac Firebird a hard car to find? Not really. But tracking one down with under 20,000 original miles doesn’t happen every day. This car is such a vehicle, with just 19,285 original miles, featuring the 5.7L… more»
Survivor Square Body: 1975 Chevy Blazer
Over the last few months, I’ve heard a lot of chatter about square-body SUVs coming into their own as the next class of collector vehicles. I’m hopeful this includes my junkyard Isuzu Trooper rescue project, as that’s about as… more»
Engine Swap Candidate: 1969 Porsche 911 Targa
While it looks like it was just rescued from a junkyard, this 1969 Porsche 911T appears to be someone’s stalled project given the amount of spare sheetmetal included in the sale. This is a Targa roof car, making it… more»
Room for Four: 1972 Ferrari 365 GTC/4
Yes, the $179,000 asking price is a tad eye-watering, but these Ferrari 365/GTC-4s don’t show up all that often. And prices for these 2+2s have been rising as of late, after seemingly falling victim to the fate of any… more»
