Tommy Boy Tribute: 1969 Plymouth Road Runner

No Snow Please! 1976 Jeep Wagoneer
It’s a testament to the over-engineering of vintage Jeep products that so many Wagoneers and Cherokees are still on the road, looking like they could tackle the nearest rock crawl of snow-covered hill with ease. But on that last… more»

Runs Strong: 1980 Toyota Supra
I have to believe early editions of now-iconic sports cars are going to see an uptick in price eventually. Cars like the Supra, 300ZX, and Starions are all entry-level classics at the moment, but for how much longer? It’s… more»

911 Alternative? 1981 Porsche 924 Turbo
There was a time, not long ago, where I was damn sick and tired of turbocharging. It’s become fairly commonplace, offered as means of replacing actual displacement and turning once-glorious engines into timid, four-cylinder versions of their former selves…. more»
