Portrait Inside: 1967 Chevrolet G10 Boogie Van

This is the first time that I can remember seeing a vehicle with a portrait of itself hanging inside. But, when it comes to vanning, the sky’s the limit as it relates to personal touches. This 1967 Chevy G10… more»

Car 25 of 25: 1990 Mercedes 560 SEC AMG Hammer

It’s not often you see a Mercedes W126 fetching $150K on eBay with the reserve still unmet. Then again, if it’s an AMG-built car that’s just one of 25 ever made, it starts to make some sense. This is… more»

Original Paint: 1988 BMW 325is

We recently featured a super clean 1987 BMW 325is, a sport package survivor in highly original condition. That car sold for a strong number, but it appears to have been relisted. The seller of the red car will now… more»

No Reserve Euro Spec: 1985 BMW M635CSI

We’ve had a few E24-chassis BMW M6s pop up for sale lately, no doubt helped by the rise in value of the venerable E30 M3. The U.S.-spec M6 was certainly a performance car by any measure, but like so… more»

Rock Solid Rock Hopper: 1974 Toyota FJ40

I don’t know if it’s going to come together just yet, but I’m working on acquiring a new project of the vintage Japanese 4×4 variety. It’s not an FJ40, because those have been far too popular (and expensive) for… more»

Austin Engine Swap: 1958 Berkeley Racer

Despite appearing for sale with some regularity, the 1950s Berkeley Sports was made in limited numbers, with just over 4,000 built. Powered by engines ranging from 18 to 50 b.h.p., these were extremely clever cars that made extensive use… more»

Orkin Owned: 1977 Mercedes 450SEL

If the Orkin man showed up in a given neighborhood, residents would likely cower by the windows, hoping he didn’t pull into the house next door. This image of an individual tasked with killing vermin and extricating wildlife is… more»

Not Many Left: 1977 Chevrolet Monza Mirage

Parked in ’88: 1963 Porsche 356

Dry Stored Survivor: 1983 BMW 316

This listing for a recently unearthed BMW 316 caused some momentary deja vu, as it’s a dead-ringer for my exact car – even down to being right-hand drive. It remains close to factory with the original steel wheels and… more»

21 Window Alternative: 1961 Mercedes 319 Panorama Bus

There’s a hefty opening bid of $20K expected for this unusual 1965 Mercedes-Benz 319 “Panorama” bus. No one’s stepped up to the plate just yet, which isn’t terribly surprising considering the volume of work needed to make it a… more»
