Buy One Now: 1993 GMC Typhoon
I don’t claim to have a crystal ball, but I have to believe there’s going to be a day when the Typhoon and Cyclone are impossible to buy in decent shape for under $20K. This one here is the… more»
Mexican Shelby: 1972 Ford Mustang GT-351

Quick Flip: 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28

Cheap Florida Barn Find: 1992 Pontiac Firebird
I spend a fair amount of time in Florida, as it’s one of my favorite places to visit and easily accessible from my too-cold-too-often home of Rhode Island. One aspect of the Sunshine State that’s different from home is… more»
15,000 Miles Fresh: 1985 Dodge Omni GLH
Hot on the heels of one incredibly well preserved Dodge Omni GLHS is this even lower mileage Omni GLH, listed as having a mere 15,901 miles on the clock. The Omni is presented by a dealer that typically has… more»
Rare V12 Hot Rod: 1987 Jaguar XJ12 TWR
Oh my. Forget the BMW M5 and anything with an AMG badge: this TWR-blessed Jaguar XJ12 is the hottest sedan I’ve seen listed for sale in quite some time! If there was ever a car that demanded Ronin be… more»
Sport Package Survivor: 1990 BMW 325is
As someone in a long-term relationship with a 1987 BMW 325is, I’m a big fan of sport package-equipped E30s. This car is perhaps the most desirable configuration, with the smaller bumpers that came on later models. Of course, I… more»
Museum Stored: 1979 Ford Pinto Station Wagon

No Reserve! 1972 Lotus Elan 2+2 Coupe
Before writing up this post, I scanned an article from Automobile magazine that cited how light the Elan was, even when saddled with a set of rear seats like this 2+2 model on eBay. Incredibly, it still tipped the… more»
Short Box Project: 1956 International Harvester S-120
Here are some color code names you don’t often see assigned to pickup trucks: Cambrian Coral and Magnolia White. That’s the factory color scheme on this claimed-survivor 1956 International Harvester S-120, which looks fairly rough around the edges but… more»
Left Untouched: 1968 Ford Bronco

Low Option Field Find: 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302

Cosworth Survivor: 1986 Mercedes 190E 2.3 16V
The other day, I patted myself on the back by noting that a fairly tatty Mercedes 190E 2.3-16 like my recent junkyard rescue of the same car was listed for over $8K on eBay. Well, today we look at… more»
What’s It Worth? 1973 Pontiac Trans Am
