Swivel Seats! 1976 Chevy Laguna S-3

Wow – this 1976 Chevrolet Laguna S-3 looked like one to buy until I saw the hard hit it took to the rear. The seller has now relegated it to parts car status, but I hope someone tries to… more»

2nd Owner Sale: 1958 Chevrolet Apache

The market for vintage American pickups seems to be picking up. As I researched the potential value of the 1955 Chevy pickup we recently listed an a Barn Finds Exclusive, many of the Chevy message boards seem to support that these… more»

Willie Nelson Connection: 1952 Flxible Flyer Visicoach

If I weren’t into vintage European cars and Japanese SUVs, I’m fairly certain I’d want to own a Flxible touring bus of some kind. Flxible Flyers sported some of the best art-deco styling to ever grace a transportation vessel, and… more»

Low-Mileage V12: 1991 Jaguar XJS Convertible

Despite their horrible reputation for reliability, the Jaguar XJS convertible remains one of the most elegant Jaguars ever made. It’s a shame because its design will likely be remembered as iconic as the E-Type but the build quality will always… more»

Short Bus: 1958 Chevrolet Superior School Bus

This 1958 Chevrolet Superior School Bus has been sitting forlornly in New Mexico for years, according to the seller, and there’s not much left to this short bus body. While I wish there were pictures of the hedge it… more»

Shipwrecked: 1967 Amphicar Project

Wow – for an Amphicar that was supposedly never submerged, this one looks like it found other ways to end up as a rusty hulk. The listing on eBay is short on details, other than stating that this Amphicar… more»

Semaphore Equipped: 1958 Volkswagen Beetle

Semaphores! Man, I get excited by these old-school turn signals that came on the earliest Beetles, like this 1958 example out in Seattle. The appendages flutter out the B-pillar like a set of delicate wings, letting you know which… more»

Time Capsule Coupe: 1974 Audi Fox

The owner of this 1974 Audi 80 has done an admirable job of preserving what is a highly obscure model seen in very limited numbers today. With a clean body, slim European-market bumpers and period-appropriate phone dial wheels, there’s… more»

Aluminum Bodied Tribute: Ferrari 250 GTO Replica

We’re on a solid run of these “Faux-rraris”, typically based on Datsun 240/260Z underpinnings and mechanical systems. I can’t remember having so many pop up in the years I’ve written for this site, but here we are. What’s most… more»

Plaid Seats: 1980 Porsche 911 SC

When it comes to Porsches, it seems the options list bears less and less meaning as it relates to the final price. If it’s an air-cooled 911, it will hammer home north of $20K provided it isn’t rusty or… more»

Blue Plate Special: 1984 Alfa Romeo Spider

While 80s German cars continue to accelerate in price, Alfa Romeos of the same vintage seem like a relative bargain. I’ve been checking out the Milano sedan and the later 164, and despite the upkeep requirements, they seem like… more»

Twin Turbo Sleeper: 1990 Toyota Cresta 2.5 GT

It’s difficult today to find reasons to get enthused about the vehicles Toyota chooses to sell in the U.S. Looking back at their lineup in 1988 shows a company with a much different focus than they have now, which… more»

Project Car Special: 1978 Ford Mustang Cobra II

Texas Top Coat: 1980 Mercedes 450SL

The R107 Mercedes remains a car that is both rising in value and wholly attainable on a budget. The best cars, usually later models and Euro-spec examples, can easily clear the $20K price threshold, but others like this dusty… more»
