Milan Conversion: 1976 Cadillac Seville
I have been called a purist in the past. This is not always mentioned with approval, mind you, because a purist can be someone who despises any car or truck that receives modifications after it leaves the factory, or… more»
No Reserve: 1970 Dodge Charger R/T
If there’s one thing I love more than barn find muscle cars, it would have to be barn find muscle cars painted in some awesome shade of 70’s colors. This 1970 Dodge Charger R/T wears its weather-beaten colors with… more»
Mustang’s Sister: 1983 Mercury Capri RS 5.0
Here’s a car you don’t see everyday: a 1983 Mercury Capri RS with the factory high-output 5.0 liter V8. Like all things Mercury, this is basically a warmed-over Ford product intended to give buyers some feeling of greater luxury… more»
Mean Mice: 1976 Datsun B210
As many of us can likely agree, timing is everything. It doesn’t matter whether you’re flying through the Esses at Watkins Glen or asking for a raise at work, the timing of an event can have a monumental impact… more»
2,335 Miles: 1991 Chrysler TC by Maserati
There was a time when every hardcover “dream car” book or calendar from the 1980s featured a Chrysler TC by Maserati. It seems everyone, from consumers to authors, were smitten by this handsome coupe with its Maserati affiliations, even… more»
Bought It Yesterday: 1973 Porsche 914
There used to be a saying, “Win on Sunday, sell on Monday.” These days, it seems like some hobbyists are less concerned about a vehicle’s performance capabilities on the track and more infatuated by how quickly they can unload… more»
1/2 Restored: 1967 Fiat Dino
If I were more of an Italian car guy, I’d imagine the Fiat Dino would be akin to the rare, classic BMWs just within the reach of my project car budget. Like an S38-powered M6 or M5, the Dino… more»
Stretch-Friendly: 1969 Chevrolet G10 LWB
While finding old-school Chevy vans is not difficult, here’s two ways this example is a cut above the rest: it’s a long wheelbase model, stretched to 108 inches, and it’s been with the current owner since 1977. I thought… more»
White Sands Commuter: 1979 Honda Civic
This perfectly sun-bleached 1979 Honda Civic has led a gentle life, being owned by a professor in White Sands, New Mexico, for the bulk of its life. The fantastic shade of 70s green paint has slowly been worn away… more»
Hard Hit: 1984 Buick Skylark T-Type
I’ve had my eye on this decrepit hot-rod Buick for quite some time, as it keeps popping up on eBay with a lower and lower price, now listed with a $350 Buy-It-Now. That’s pretty stupid cheap, but it comes… more»
Vandalized While Stored: 1970 Mercedes 280SE

$300 Project: 1965 Volvo Amazon
When it comes to project cars, $300 is a significant number to me. Why? Because that’s the same price I purchased my project car for, and it leaves the door open for bringing even a long-idled car like this… more»
Dry Docked Duck: DUKW Amphibious Vehicle
While the image of this six-wheeled amphibious DUKW peering out of the Oregon undergrowth is partly terrifying, it’s also not that unsettling given these former military vehicles now do parade laps in cities like Boston as a tourist attraction…. more»
USGP Edition: 1980 Toyota Celica Survivor
Although special editions can sometimes be yawn-inducing or eyeroll-causing, they can also add some extra flavor to an already rare or desirable car. Take, for instance, this 1980 Toyota Celica U.S. Grand Prix Edition. Not many were made when… more»
Last Titled in ’72: 1971 Dodge Challenger R/T
This 1971 Dodge Challenger R/T is quite rough but aside from a paint color change, it could be a largely original specimen that is ripe for restoration. Despite its condition, Mopar fanatics will likely gravitate to the generous factory… more»
